7.1
Descaling
Use descalers with citric acid or vinegar essence (approx. 5 % acid).
For descaling use only an environmentally friendly descaling agent and proceed only
according to the information of the manufacturer.
Do not use formic acid-based descalers.
Kettle
The kettle (11) should be descaled after 20 - 40 uses, or possibly before if necessary. If
lime scale covers the bottom of the kettle (11), this may lead to defects (heat
accumulation). You can see that lime scale has formed when there is white discoloration
on the inside of the kettle (11).
1.
Use the descaling agent according to the information of the manufacturer for the
kettle (11).
2.
Empty the kettle (11) and remove the remnants with a wet cloth.
3.
After descaling fill the kettle (11) twice with fresh water and let it boil, then pour it
away.
4.
Separate cleaning of the lime scale filter (12) is generally necessary only if the flow of
water is inhibited when pouring. See chapter 7 for how to remove the lime scale filter
(12). To reinstall the lime scale filter (12) proceed in the reverse order.
Coffee maker
For the coffee maker we recommend descaling every three months by way of precaution:
1.
Fill the water tank (15) up to the Max. level with a mixture of fresh water and descaling
agent – according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
2.
Push the filter holder (22) with the permanent filter (20) fully in without coffee powder.
3.
Place the glass pot (18) with the lid (19) on the hot plate (17).
4.
Then switch the appliance on.
5.
Wait until approx. one cup has run through and switch off the appliance.
6.
Let the descaling solution take effect for around 15 minutes and then switch the
appliance back on again.
7.
Repeat steps 5 and 6 once, then leave the appliance switched on until the descaling
solution has run through fully.
8.
Then repeat the running-through process three times with clear water.
9.
Rinse the glass pot (18), lid, coffee filter holder (22) and permanent filter (20)
thoroughly under running water.
10.
Activate the drip stop (21) several times during rinsing.
7.2
Care of stainless steel parts
For regular care and also for removing stubborn stains on stainless steel parts we
recommend the INOX-METAL-POLISH from BEEM. This polish restores the original sheen
to appliances. INOX-METAL-POLISH is available in tubes and is suitable for all objects
made of stainless steel, chrome, brass, copper, aluminium, silver and also hard plastics.
INOX-METAL-POLISH is also used in factories for polishing stainless steel. You can order
INOX-METAL-POLISH from your specialist dealer, by telephone from us or on our website
www.beem.de.
Please note that the label and imprint on the stainless steel surfaces may come off if
cleaned with metal polish or other chemicals.
7.3
Storage
Let the appliance cool down fully.
Empty the kettle (11) and the water tank (15).
