DESCALING
De-scale regularly, preferably at least once a month or more frequently if your water is very hard.
To de-scale your tea maker:
• Using white vinegar:
– Fill the teapot with 0.5 L of white vinegar.
– Leave to stand for 1 hour without heating.
• Using citric acid:
– Boil 0.5 L of water.
– Add 25 g of citric acid and leave to stand for 15 min.
• Empty the teapot and rinse 5 or 6 times. Repeat if necessary.
To de-scale your tea basket and lid:
Soak the tea basket and lid in white vinegar or diluted citric acid.
• Never use a de-scaling method other than the recommended method.
IN THE EVENT OF PROBLEMS
THERE IS NO EVIDENT DAMAGE TO YOUR TEA MAKER
• The tea maker does not work or stops before coming to the boil
– Check that your tea maker is properly connected.
– The tea maker has been switched on without water or an accumulation of scale has
triggered the over-heat cut-off mechanism: allow the tea maker to cool down and fill it
with water. Descale first if scale has accumulated.
Switch it on: the tea maker should start working again after about 15 minutes.
IF YOUR TEA MAKER HAS BEEN DROPPED, IF IT LEAKS OR IF THERE IS VISIBLE DAMAGE
TO THE POWER CORD, THE PLUG OR THE BASE OF THE TEA MAKER.

out repairs. Refer to the warranty conditions and list of centres in the booklet supplied
with your tea maker. The type and serial number are shown on the bottom of your tea
maker. This warranty covers manufacturing defects and domestic use only. Any breakage or
damage resulting from failure to comply with the instructions for use is not covered by the
warranty.

makers at any time in the interests of the consumer.
• Stop using the tea maker. No attempt must be made to dismantle the tea maker or its
safety devices.

service centre or a similarly qualified person, in order to avoid any danger.
PREVENTION OF DOMESTIC ACCIDENTS
For a child, a burn or scald, even if slight, can sometimes be serious.
As they grow up, teach your children to beware of hot liquids found in the kitchen. Position
the tea maker and its supply cord well to the rear of the work surface, out of the reach of
children.
If an accident does occur, run cold water over the scald immediately and call a doctor if
necessary.
• In order to prevent any accidents: do not carry your child or baby at the same time as
drinking or carrying a hot drink.
