Cleaning and maintenance
Attention:
Always unplug the appliance before cleaning and
decalcification! Always let the appliance cool down before cleaning
or decalcification! Never immerse the appliance and the plug in
water or clean them under running water!
Cleaning the appliance
• Clean the appliance with a damp tissue and wipe it dry.
• Clean the cover, the egg tray and the measuring cup in hot water with some dishwashing detergent.
Before the next use, all parts must be completely dry.
• Do not use any abrasives or solvents!
• Never use a steam jet appliance for cleaning!
Descaling the appliance
We recommend decalcifying the appliance in regular intervals. Limescale leads to a loss of energy and
might, under particular circumstances, even affect the lifespan of the unit. The intensity of limescale
depends on the water hardness degree.
• Slight scale deposits in the heating bowl may be removed by wiping it with a cloth moistened with
some vinegar essence.
• In case of more stubborn scale deposits pour some vinegar thinned with water directly into the heating
bowl and let it rest for a while until the scale comes off. Then wipe out the bowl thoroughly and dry it
afterwards.
• Do not heat the appliance during the descaling process.
NOTE:
Damages caused by non-observance of our decaling directives are not covered by warranty.
Disposal of remaining water
After the appliance has cooled down dispose the remaining water from the heating bowl.
