Cleaning and care
∙ Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it
is disconnected from the power supply
and has cooled down completely.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, the
main unit should only be wiped with a
damp cloth.
∙ In the case of contact with water, wipe
the main unit thoroughly dry. I may not
be used again until completely dry.
∙ Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
∙ The main unit and heating element may
be cleaned with a damp cloth.
∙ Unlock the stainless-steel jacket by
turning it, then take it off and clean it
with hot soapy water; dry thoroughly
afterwards.
∙ Once properly dry, re-assemble the
appliance as follows:
Fit the stainless-steel jacket onto the
main unit, so that the and symbols
are facing each other. Lock by turning
clockwise until the and symbols
are aligned.
Descaling
∙ Depending on the water quality (lime
content) in your area as well as the
frequency of use, all thermal household
appliances using hot water need
descaling (i.e. removal of lime deposits)
on a regular basis to warrant proper
functioning.
∙ Any warranty claim will be null and
void if the appliance malfunctions
because of insufficient descaling.
∙ Excessive lime-scale build-up on the
heating tube indicates that descaling
has become necessary.
∙ For descaling, a vinegar solution may be
used.
∙ Mix vinegar essence at a 1:15 ratio with
cold water in a pot.
∙ Insert the appliance with the stainless-
steel jacket (observing the Min-/Max
markings) and operate at 60°C for
approx. 5 hrs.
∙ Repeat the procedure if necessary.
∙ During descaling, ensure sufficient
ventilation and do not inhale any vinegar
vapours.
∙ After descaling, insert the appliance up
to the Max mark in clean tap water and
dry thoroughly afterwards.
∙ Do not pour descalers down enamel
sinks.
