Descaling

Inappropriate water may lead to limescale deposits building up. Limescale deposits
result in longer heating time and might cause damage to the appliance.
NOTE!
To avoid limescale deposits, it is recommended to use filtered water!
ATTENTION!
Lack of regular descaling of the appliance, as set forth in the instruction
manual, may constitute a ground for rejecting warranty claims. Such
claims are not covered by the warranty!
Descale the appliance regularly!
We recommend ecological descaling with use of vinegar or citric acid.
1. Prepare water and vinegar solution (3:1 ratio) or water and citric acid solution (2
spoons per 1 litre of water).
2. Fill the pot with this solution.
3. We recommend leaving the descaling solution for approx. 1 hour.
4. Next, boil the descaling solution.
5. Leave the appliance to cool off for some time.
6. Drain the descaling solution to a suitable container via the drain tap.
7. Rinse the pot thoroughly and multiple times with fresh water.
8. To completely remove the descaling solution, pour fresh water through the drain
tap, too.
9. When other commercially available descaling agents are used, observe
manufacturer's instructions.
