Cleaning and care
Disconnect the mains plug and allow the appliance to cool down. Do not immerse the appliance in
water, but rather clean it using a damp cloth and a little washing-up liquid, then dry it.
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents.
The pot is made of stainless steel. If rust spots do appear however, they are only deposits that have
formed on the surface. They should be removed immediately using stainless steel cleanser.
The strainer insert in the pour spout can be removed for cleaning when the lid is open. To do so, press
its upper clip upward. When inserting, place the strainer in the middle of the base and then snap it
forward into place.
Descaling
Please descale your appliance regularly using a high-quality commercial descaling agent. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions, particularly with regard to the subsequent cleaning with clear water,
which is essential. Suitable descaling agents contain inhibitors, which protect appliances against
damage to seals and surfaces, do not cause additional deposits and have no taste. Do not use descaling
agents that are unsuitable for your appliance (such as substances based purely on acetic or citric acid).
Our warranty does not cover damage caused by using unsuitable descaling agents or failure to follow
the descaling instructions. Please keep descaling agents out of reach of children and make sure you do
not inhale any of the vapours given off during descaling.
