How to clean the heater

You have now prepared a mixture of warm water and detergent. Now place the bowls close together under the heater and pour the mixture over it from above so that the heater is rinsed through with the liquid from the inside. The dirt is simply rinsed out and collected in the containers. You can also place a towel or some tarpaulin underneath in case you spill. That's all there is to it.
