• Clean the outside with a damp cloth. A mild detergent can be used
for heavy dirt. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents or sprays.
• Thoroughly wash the inside of the tank and rinse with fresh water.
• Only use a soft cloth and never use any kind of abrasive cleaners,
which might cause scratches.
• Do not use steel wool for cleaning. Small pieces might come off the
steel wool, get stuck in the tap, and cause damage to the sealing
surface.
• When used daily, the whole tapping mechanism must be cleaned
once a week, when used more rarely, it does not have to be cle-
aned that often. Unscrew the lid of the tap for cleaning, detach the
silicon seated cone, and clean all parts in warm water with a mild
detergent. Clean the inside of the tap and the connection to the tank
with a small bottle brush. Never push the brush into the assembled
tap because it would damage the seated cone.
• Never use flammable detergents (e.g. spirit) because they cause a
higher risk of fire or explosion when the appliance is next used.
• Calcareous water causes a layer of lime to settle in the tank, espe-
cially at the bottom of the tank, which can influence the heating
capacity of the appliance. This can be easily removed by adding a
descaling agent with a citric acid base and bringing this solution to a
boil. Refer to the instructions on the decalcifier for the correct dosage.
• Thoroughly rinse the tank with fresh water after decalcifying.
• Use a soft, dry cloth to dry and polish the surface after cleaning.
• Make sure the appliance was cleaned properly before storing it in a
dry place.
NOTE:
After decalcifying, boil some fresh water in order
to remove any residues. Do not use this water for
consumption.
