Use KÄRCHER descaler sticks for descaling.
Please follow the dosing instructions on the pack-

Pour the descaling solution into the boiler and allow

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.

The floor cleaning cloth and the cloth cover have been
