When the knob is turned counter-clockwise to the 100º position it will stop. To obtain water hotter than 100º, push the knob in, and continue turning it counter-clock- wise.

If scale deposits are noticed in the spray channels, rub across the channels with a finger or a sponge to dislodge them. If necessary, pour about 3/4” of a commercial scale remover, such as Lime-Away or CLR, into a shallow dish.
