ATTENTION
In order to guarantee the optimum function-

or to the first operation.
Further information concerning the device
setting can be found in Chapter "Effect
descaler cartridge and setting of water

 Operate steam lever.
ATTENTION
Only work with a cartridge inserted.
 As soon as the device is filled with water
and is taken into operation, the descal-
ing effect of the cartridge is activated.

Lime that is contained in the water is ab-
sorbed by the granules in the cartridge.
This prevents the calcification of the de-
vice. An additional device descaling is
thus not required.
Note
The granules in the cartridge can change
their colour after contact with water; this is
related to the mineral content in the water.
This discolouration is harmless and does
not have any negative effects on the de-
vice, cleaning work or the functionality of
the cartridge.
Note
The hardness of the tap water can be in-
quired at your water management office or
the municipal utilities.
