What water to use?
• Tap water: Your appliance has been designed to use tap water. If your
water is very hard, mix 50% tap water and 50% bottled demineralised
water. In some coastal areas, the salt content of the water may be high.
In such cases, use only demineralised water.
• Water softener: There are several types of water softeners available and
most of them can be used in the generator. However, some softeners
(especially those that use chemicals such as salt) may cause white or
brown streaks. This is often the case when using water from filtering jugs.
If you experience this sort of problem, we suggest you try using untreated
tap water or bottled water.
• NB: Never use rain water or water containing additives (such as starch,
fragrances or water from household appliances). These additives may
affect the properties of the steam, and together with high temperatures
can cause deposits to form in the steam chamber which could soil your
laundry.
