Filling/refilling with water

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

► Always disconnect the plug from the mains power socket before you add water to the water tank

CAUTION – PROPERTY DAMAGE! ► Do not put any additives or cleaning agents in the water tank

♦ Open the safety valve

can only be opened if all the steam has been let out of the water tank

► Ensure that you fill the appliance’s water tank

with around 250 ml of water. ♦ Fill the water tank

with water through the filler opening

♦ To do this, use the supplied measuring cup

for assistance (see figure). Fill the measuring cup

with water up to the marking line (approx. 250 ml). ♦ Reclose the safety valve

SDR 1100 B2 If there is no more water in the water tank
