Descaling
CAUTION!
Failure to conduct regular descaling - in accordance with the
instructions - may be the basis for rejecting complaints.
The warranty does not cover this type of complaint!
Descale the device regularly!
o
Hard water may cause scaling in the water tank, thus extending the time needed to
heat water and possibly causing damage of the device. If possible, use filtered
water to avoid scaling!
o
We recommend using citric acid or vinegar for ecological descaling. Prepare a
solution of water with vinegar (3:1 ratio) or water with citric acid (2 table
spoons per 1 liter of water) and fill the tank. Wait some time (ca. 1 hour), and
then boil the solution.
