When pouring water, do not exceed the MAX fill
●
indicator (15) .
When cleaning the appliance using citric acid, the lid
●

using a sponge and wash with water, and if this does not
help, repeat the entire process.
In order to get rid of the citric acid aftertaste, boil and
●
pour out water twice.
Cleaning the suction pump (Fig. J)
Mineral deposits forming in the suction pump may clog
the pump and cause water to flow out slower than usual.
Therefore, the suction pump should be cleaned every
6 months using citric acid, as follows:
1 Remove the filter (10) from the inside of the appliance.
2
Dissolve approx. 30 g of citric acid in approx. 200 ml of water.
Pour the mixture into the hole at the bottom of the appliance.
3 Fill the appliance with water up to 1/3 of its capacity.

Notes on cleaning and storing the appliance
Never wash the appliance under running water and fill
●
it with water directly from the tap, because it may cause
a short-circuit or electric shock.
Never wash the appliance under running water, as water
●
may get into its internal parts and cause damage.
Never use any detergents, cleaners, scourers, nylon
●
brushes, artificial cloths or bleaches for cleaning the
casing.
Never wash the appliance in a dishwasher or dry it in
●
automatic dryers, as this may cause damage to the
appliance.
Various black-coloured, rust-like, milk-like, etc. deposits
●
(including floating ones) may form inside the appliance.
They are caused by minerals which occur naturally in water
(calcium, magnesium, iron, etc.). Such discolorations are
not caused by faulty operation of the appliance and do not
affect its use. In case of greater accumulation of mineral
deposits, proceed as described in section (I) .
Remove the filter before cleaning the inside of the appliance
●
(10) . Clean the filter under running water using a sponge or
brush. Water flow may be blocked if the filter is clogged with
lime scale. Remember to replace the filter after cleaning.
Stains which are difficult to remove with a sponge should
●
be cleaned with citric acid or vinegar.
Failure to clean the inside of the appliance on a regular
●
basis may increase the noise during operation, making it
impossible to remove all mineral deposits in the future or
causing malfunction.
Using mineral or alkaline drinking water will result in
●
greater accumulation of mineral deposits inside the
appliance and may cause obstruction of the dispensing
spout (11) and the steam outlet (2) . It is necessary to
descale the appliance regularly.
Discolorations due to overheating cannot be removed.
●
If you do not intend to use the appliance for a long period of
●
time, descale the lid and the inside of the appliance, clean
the outside surfaces with a soft cloth with mild detergent
and allow to dry (this is particularly important for the inside
of your appliance). It is best to place the appliance in
a plastic bag to protect it against dust and insects.
