- Internal Module: The internal IR-module itself requires no user maintenance. Do not attempt to open or clean the module directly.
- Strømforsyning: As this is a mains-powered device, there are no batteries to replace.
Fejlfinding
If you experience issues with your GROHE IR-module Tectron Surf 38699, consult the following table before contacting service.
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
