Cleaning
Preparation:
A container higher than 18 cm (7 in.) and food grade vinegar (white vinegar, apple
vinegar, etc.).
Why it needs to be cleaned
:
Tap water normally contains minerals. When the water is heated to a certain
temperature, scale will build up on the heater or surface of the machine. In this case,
the scale will affect the performance and the outside appearance of the machine. To
avoid this, it is recommended to clean the machine after every 20 uses, with an
accumulated working time of less than 200 hours. The machine can also be cleaned
according to your current needs based on the type of water in different places.
How to clean:
1.
Put the machine in the container. Pour water in the container up to the MAX
line of the machine. Add 5 g of vinegar per 10 L of water.
CAUTION: Rinse the eyes with a lot of water if vinegar comes in contact with
them. See medical attention as required.
2.
Turn on the machine, set the working temperature at 80°C (176°F) for 3 hours
(03:00), and press Start. After 3 hours, when the machine beeps, turn it OFF and
cut off power.
3.
Check if the machine is clean enough. If not, add vinegar again in the
container and run the machine as indicated above in Step 2. If the machine is clean
enough, drain the vinegar from the container, wash the machine and container with
fresh water, dry
them and store them appropriately.
