Caution
● Clean the inner container frequently, and when the mineral deposits become noticeable, clean them off
using citric acid. (Refer to p.13.)
If mineral deposits build up, it will make the hot water dispensing less smooth, and lower noises may be
heard while boiling water.
● When mineral water or alkali ion water (which contains a lot of mineral components) are boiled, clean the
inner container even more frequently.
The mineral deposits built up on the inside surfaces come off and clog hot water spout and steam vent
inside the main unit, causing malfunction.
