Cleaning sponge

The enclosed cleaning sponge is very absorbent. Use the 

cleaning sponge only for cleaning the cooking compartment 

and for removing residual water from the evaporator dish.
Wash the cleaning sponge thoroughly before using for the first 

time. You can wash the cleaning sponge in the washing 

machine (hot wash).

Microfibre cloth

The honeycomb microfibre cloth is particularly suitable for 

cleaning sensitive surfaces such as glass, glass ceramic, 

stainless steel or aluminium (product no. 460 770, also 

available from our online eShop). It removes liquid and greasy 

deposits in one go.

Descaling

The appliance must be descaled at regular intervals in order for 

it to continue operating correctly. The 

calc

 indicator reminds 

you to do this.
You can only dispense with descaling completely if you 

exclusively use softened water.
The descaling consists of:

Descale (approx. 30 minutes), then refill the water tank and 

empty the evaporator dish

1st rinse (20 seconds), then empty the evaporator dish

2nd rinse (20 seconds), then remove the remaining water

All three steps must be completed in full. The appliance is 

ready for operation again only after the 2nd rinse.

Descaler

Only use the liquid descaler recommended by customer 

service for descaling (product no. 311 138, also available 

online from the eShop). Other descalers may damage the 

appliance.
Observe the cleaning agent manufacturer's instructions.

1.

Prepare a descaling solution by mixing 300 ml water and 

60 ml liquid descaler.

2.

Empty the water tank and fill with descaling solution.

Caution!

front of the appliance or any other sensitive surfaces, wash it off 

immediately with water.
