Maintenance and Care

DANGER
Always disconnect the mains plug and al-
low the steam cleaner to cool down before
performing any maintenance work.
Descaling the Steam Boiler
As limescale builds up on the boiler walls,
we recommend to descale the boiler in the
following intervals (RF=reservoir fillings):
Degree of hardness
I soft
II medium
III hard
IV very hard
Note: If you always use usual commercial
distilled water it is not necessary to descale
the boiler.
Disconnect the steam cleaner from the
electrical network and let it cool off.
Empty the water reservoir.
Remove the complete accessory from
the accessory compartments.
Open the steam boiler seal (A7).
For this, place the open end of an exten-
sion pipe (G1) onto the steam boiler
seal, lock it into the guide and unscrew it.
