Filling the water tank
ATTENTION!
❐
Always turn off the appliance before you
fi
ll the water tank.
❐
Never
fi
ll the appliance with cleaners or other additives. They may irreparably damage
the appliance and as such, the safe operation of the appliance can no longer be as-
sured.
If the power LEDs (
12
) are blinking red, the water tank (
7
) is empty and has to be
fi
lled.
We recommend that, ideally, you
fi
ll the water tank with distilled water to prevent
calci
fi
cation, especially if the hardness of your tap water is very high.
1. Take the water tank out of the appliance to
fi
ll it. To do so, depress both side release
buttons (
6
).
2. Open the water tank: Turn the water tank lid (
5
) a bit in a counterclockwise direction
and remove it.
3. Fill the tank with cold, clean water. You can use the enclosed meas-
uring cup (
J
) to do so. The tank holds up to 350 ml.
4. Screw the water tank lid back onto the water tank by turning it in a
clockwise direction and then insert the tank back into the main unit.
It must audibly lock into place.
