Descaling the boiler
In order to remove lime adhering to the boiler wall, we
recommend cleaning the boiler with the KÄRCHER Bio
Descaler RM 511. The KÄRCHER Bio Descaler RM 511
is a citric acid-based product that is completely biode-
gradable.

KÄRCHER in order to prevent damage to the device. Do
not use vinegar or similar agents.

Never fill the descaling solution into the fresh water
tank, as this will damage the pump.

3. Completely dissolve a two bags of descaler in 2 li-
tres of warm water, stirring constantly.

screw the safety lock onto the device during the des-
caling process.
