CLEANING
When cleaning the appliance, you
should pay attention to the following
points:
• Remove plug from the mains
socket, and allow the appliance to
cool down before cleaning it.
• Do not immerse the appliance in
water and make sure no water
enters the appliance.
• Clean the appliance by wiping it
with a damp cloth. A little detergent
can be added if the appliance is
heavily soiled.
• Never use a scouring pad or
any form of strong solvents or
abrasive cleaning agents to clean
the appliance, as those may
damage the outside surfaces of the
appliance.
• The filter funnel and the glass pot
can be washed by hand or in a
dishwasher.
• IMPORTANT! Allow to dry fully after
cleaning before using again. Do not
use the appliance if damp.
DESCALING
The lime content of ordinary tap water
means limescale may gradually be
deposited inside. This limescale may
be loosened using acetic acid (NOT
ordinary vinegar) or descaler, available
in supermarkets, etc.
1. Mix 100 ml acetic acid with 300 ml
cold water, or follow the instructions
on the descaler packaging.
2. Pour the solution into the reservoir
and switch on the apparatus using
the on/off button.
3. Allow half of the solution to run
through, and then switch off using
the on/off button.
4. Switch off for around 10 minutes,
and then switch on again, and
allow the rest of the solution to run
through.
5. To remove the final residues of
limescale and acetic acid, pour a
potful of cold water into the water
reservoir, switch on and allow the
water to pass through.
6. Run fresh water through the
appliance 3 times (as described in
point 5). The apparatus now ready
for use.
