PREPARATION
1.
Unscrew the safety cap (
A
) (Fig.1) and fill the
boiler with 1.5 l of water, using the jug (
13
) and
the special funnel (
12
) (Fig.2).
This appliance has been designed to work with
normal tap water.
However, since water contains limescale by
nature, which may cause scaling in the long
run, we recommend using a mixture of 50% tap
water and 50% demineralised water or treated
with water softener systems. To use tap water
only and avoid scale formation, we recommend
the addition of the special natural scale removal
agent Kalstop FP2003.
Absolutely do not use distilled water, dryer
condensate water, perfumed water, rain
water, battery water, water from air conditio-
ning systems and the like. Do not use che-
mical substances or detergents.
2. Carefully screw the cap back in fully.
Ensure that the safety cap (A) is correctly
fastened. If not, steam could escape from
the opening.
3. Open the door (
I
) of the monobloc socket (
H
);
