Storing The Appliance - Russell Hobbs Illumina Instruction Manual

DESCALING


To prevent a build-up of deposits due to water conditions in certain areas, do ensure that
the reservoir is completely cleaned after each use. It may be necessary to periodically
descale your machine.

We recommend that you descale your machine monthly, although this period will depend
on the hardness of water and frequency of use of the machine.

To do this, pour a measure of half water/half vinegar into the water reservoir and operate
the coffee maker as if you were making coffee. Alternatively, dissolve 2 dessert spoons of
tartaric acid in half a litre of lukewarm water.

Repeat the process a further three times but using CLEAN COLD WATER ONLY to
thoroughly rinse out the appliance.

Alternatively, a well-known brand of descalent suitable for coffee makers or plastic kettles
can be used. In this case, follow the instructions given by the manufacturer
