CAUTION:
• Do not use a wire brush or other abrasive objects.
• Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents.
• Clean the surface of the appliance with a damp cloth.
Mild cleaning agents can be used for heavier soiling. Do
not use aggressive cleaning agents or sprays.
• Wash the inside of the container thoroughly. Rinse with
clean water.
• Only use a soft cloth and never use any kind of coarse
cleaner which could scratch the appliance.
• Do not use steel wool for cleaning. Parts may come off
the steel wool, deposit in the drain tap and cause dam-
age to the sealing surfaces.
• Make sure the appliance has been properly cleaned
before storing it in a dry place.
Decalcification
• The frequency of the decalcifying operation depends on the hard-
ness of the water and on how often the appliance is used.
• Calcareous water causes a layer of lime to settle in the tank, es-
pecially at the bottom of the tank, which can influence the heating
capacity of the appliance.
• Please do not use vinegar but a commercially available decalci-
fication agent on the basis of citric acid. Only use the quantities
stated in the instructions.
• After decalcifying the appliance boil fresh water in it several times
in order to remove any residues. Do not use this water for con-
sumption.
Storage
• Clean the appliance as described and allow it to dry.
• We recommend that you keep the appliance in the origi-
nal packaging if it will not be used for long periods.
• Always store the appliance out of the reach of children in
a dry, well ventilated place.

drain tap and the sealing rings.

the individual parts in warm water with mild detergent.
Rinse with clear water.
3. Clean the inside of the drain tap with a small bottle
brush. Never push the brush into the assembled drain
tap as it would puncture the silicone cone.
4. Allow the drain tap to dry completely.
5. Insert the silicone cone and screw the tap top back on.
6. Mount the drain tap with the sealing rings in the container
and tighten it with the nut. Make sure that the sealing
