You may notice mineral deposits from water residue in the water reservoir after a few 
uses, which appear like rust, this is normal. The amount of deposits depends on the 
hardness of water in your area, it is essential to descale the reservoir to help prolong the 
product life.

part vinegar) to the ‘MAX’ level mark. Do not use any other chemical or descaler.

2.  Plug in the appliance at the socket and switch on. The Digital Steamer should be fully 

assembled with the drip tray, steamer trays and steamer lid in the correct place during 
this procedure.

press the ON/OFF button to start steaming.
