Note:
If you always use usual commercial distilled water it is
not necessary to descale the boiler.
As limescale builds up on the boiler walls, we recom-
mend to descale the boiler in the following intervals
(RF=reservoir fillings):
Note:
Please contact your Conservancy Board or the local
water supply company to inquire about the hardness of
your water.
Disconnect the mains plug from the socket.
Allow device to cool down.
Remove the safety lock from the device.
Illustration
Completely empty the steam boiler to remove exist-
ing water.
ATTENTION
Only use products approved by KÄRCHER to exclude
any damages of the appliance.
Use KÄRCHER decalcifying agents for descaling.
Please follow the dosing instructions on the pack-
aging when preparing the descaler.
Pour the descaling solution into the boiler and allow
it to react for approximately 8 hours.
Completely empty the descaling solution after 8
hours. A small amount of the solution will remain in
the boiler. Therefore, you should rinse the boiler
two to three times with cold water to remove any
residues of the descaler.
