Cleaning, Care & Maintenance
• Always turn off and disconnect the appliance from the power supply before cleaning.
• Use soapy water and a damp cloth to clean the exterior of the appliance.
• Dry thoroughly after cleaning.
De-scaling
For the best water quality, Buffalo recommend that a water filter is installed to the mains water supply,
particularly in hard water areas. Doing so will reduce the build up of limescale and contaminants in the
water tank thus maintaining energy efficiency and prolonging the life of the appliance.
To de-scale the appliance:
1. Pour a solution of de-scaler and water into the appliance.
2. Brush the interior gently with a soft bristled brush.
3. Discard the solution collected in the jug.
4. Fill the appliance with clean water and turn back On to flush out the system. Flush out the system
thoroughly to remove any de-scaler residue.
5. The appliance is now ready for use.
Note: Use a suitable de-scaler and always follow the instructions on the
container.
BUFFALO recommend that this appliance is de-scaled every 3 months or more
often in hard water areas.
IMPORTANT: Failure to de-scale or maintain will invalidate your guarantee.
