Decalcification
• The frequency of the decalcifying operation depends
on the hardness of the water and on how often the
appliance is used.
• If the appliance switches off before the water boils, it
probably needs to be decalcified.
• Please do not use vinegar but a commercially available
decalcification agent on the basis of citric acid. Only use
the quantities stated in the instructions.
NOTE:
After descaling the appliance boil fresh water in it several
times (approximately 3 - 4 times) in order to remove any
residues. Do not consume this water.
