De-scaling

Decalcification is necessary if preparation time increases or if the amount of water issued varies. In any case, we recommend that you decalcify the appliance after filling the tank 2 - 4 times, depending on the degree of hardness of your tap water.

• Use only commercially available citrus acid-based descaler.
• Follow the recommended instructions for use.
• Dispense hot water with a temperature of 100 °C once. Do not pour that water away immediately. As long as it is hot you may still use it to de-scale the water faucet if needed. Please observe the instructions that we have included in the chapter “Cleaning”.

WARNING:

• Then dispense the biggest volume (500 ml) of hot water with a temperature of 100 °C for three times in order to rinse any residues of de-scaling agent.
• Do not use this water for consumption.

Cleaning

WARNING:

• Before cleaning, always remove the mains plug and wait until the appliance has cooled down.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water. Otherwise this might result in an electric shock or fire.

• Do not use any acidic or abrasive detergents.
  • Empty the water tank completely.
• Wipe out the water tank with a damp cloth (without additives). Then wipe it with a dry cloth.
• When using the appliance for the first time rinse the water tank with clean water. Use a cloth to wipe the water tank dry. Repeat this step several times.

4. Then rinse the water faucet under running water several times.

5. Mount the silicone seal to the water faucet.
6. Put the water faucet back onto the appliance. Turn it anticlockwise until it clicks into place.
