Cleaning sponge
The enclosed cleaning sponge is very absorbent. Use
the cleaning sponge only for cleaning the cooking
compartment and for removing residual water from the
evaporator dish.
Wash the cleaning sponge thoroughly before using for
the first time. You can wash the cleaning sponge in the
washing machine (hot wash).
Microfibre cloth
The honeycomb microfibre cloth is particularly suitable
for cleaning sensitive surfaces such as glass, glass
ceramic, stainless steel or aluminium (product
no. 460 770, also available from our online eShop). It
removes liquid and greasy deposits in one go.

Descale

The appliance must be descaled regularly in order for it
to continue operating correctly.
There are several steps in the descaling programme. All
steps must be completed in full. Only after this is the
appliance ready for use again.

programme, the process is interrupted and the
appliance switches off. Once the appliance has been
switched back on again, it must first be rinsed twice in
order to remove any remaining descaling solution from
the appliance. The appliance is locked for other
applications until the second rinsing cycle is complete.
Descale (approx. 30 minutes), then empty the

evaporator dish and refill the water tank
First rinsing cycle (20 seconds), then empty the

Second rinsing cycle (20 seconds), then remove the
■
remaining water
The frequency with which the appliance must be
descaled depends on the hardness of the water used.
When only five more steam-assisted operations are
possible, or fewer, the appliance reminds you to
descale it with a message on the display. The number
of remaining operations is displayed after the appliance
is switched on. You can therefore prepare for the
descaling in good time.

Hot soapy water
Soak in hot soapy water. Clean with a brush or washing-up sponge or in the dishwasher. If the rails
are discoloured by starchy foods (e.g. rice), clean them with a vinegar solution.

Risk of damage to the appliance: Only use liquid
descalers recommended by us for the descaling
programme. The time the product needs to work
during descaling depends on the type of descaler
used. Other descalers may damage the appliance.
