WARNING:
• Always turn the appliance off before cleaning it and remove the
mains plug. Wait until the appliance has cooled down.
• Never immerse the appliance or the base into water or other
liquids. Otherwise this might result in an electric shock or fire.
CAUTION:
• Do not use any wire brush or other abrasive objects.
• Do not use any acidic or abrasive detergents
• Clean the filter on the lid with a nylon brush.
• Rinse the water container out with clean water. Then dry
it off with a cloth.
• Clean the housing after use with a slightly damp cloth.
Decalcification
• The frequency of the decalcifying operation depends on
the hardness of the water and on how often the appliance
is used.
• If the appliance switches off before the water boils, it
probably needs to be decalcified.
• Please do not use vinegar but a commercially available
decalcification agent on the basis of citric acid. Only use
the quantities stated in the instructions.
NOTE:
After descaling the appliance boil fresh water in it several
times (approximately 3 - 4 times) in order to remove any
residues. Do not consume this water.
