Mesh: Mesh should be cleaned using a soft sponge with warm soapy water.  

To avoid the risk of damage, do not use a vacuum cleaner or harsh chemicals.

Guide Channels: It is recommended that the guide channels are kept clear of debris, especially doors, and should be cleaned regularly using a vacuum cleaner. Silicone based sprays can be carefully sprayed into the guide rails to ensure smooth operation.
