8. Cleaning and storage
Overview
Your air humidifier should be cleaned and descaled regularly in order to ensure that residue from the water
such as limescale does not accumulate in the appliance. Only if the air humidifier is carefully maintained
can we guarantee maximum steam output, hygiene and a long service life. The following table lists all the
measures necessary:
WARNING
Before you clean or descale your air humidifier:
• be absolutely sure to pull out the plug [11] from the wall socket,
• wait until the appliance has entirely cooled down.
IMPORTANT
Never clean the air humidifier or individual parts in the dishwasher.
