NOTE
• After using the steam function, the water tank
should be drained. To avoid bacteria or odors,
clean and dry the water tank after every use.
• Do not clean in a dishwasher.
• If the water tank does not slide in as smoothly as
it should, clean the bottom of the tank.
Hard Water Scale
If hard water is used in the water tank, the steam
generator may become clogged with hard water
scale. In areas with hard water, run the Descaling
function frequently or use softened water.

Using Descaling Function

To remove mineral deposits that remain on the
oven bottom after using the steam mode, use a
cloth or sponge soaked in vinegar or a weak citric
acid solution. For more stubborn or extensive
scaling, use the Descaling function.
NOTE
• Use the Descaling function after every 2-3 uses
of steam mode.
Descaling
Use this function to remove the white deposits
that form after the steam generator is used for a
long period.
The Descaling function runs for 1 hour 43 minutes.
Water will come out of the steam generator while
it is being cleaned.
For instructions on removing and filling the water
tank, see "Using the Water Tank."
Setting Descaling
1
Fill the water tank with a 50:1 mixture of water
and citric acid. For example, use 4 tsp of citric
acid in 4 1/4 cups water (20 g citric acid in
1000 ml water).
2
Carefully insert the water tank into the correct
position in the control panel, making sure to
keep the tank level while carrying it. If the
tank is not kept level, water will drain out of
the tubes in the back.
3
Press Cleaning in the Main Menu screen.
Press Steam Maintenance, then press
Descaling.
4
After 1 hour 32 minutes of descaling, a popup
will appear in the display. Following the
instructions, drain the tank and fill it with
clean water.
5
Insert the tank and start the Rinsing function.
Rinsing takes about 11 minutes.
6
Once the Rinsing function is complete, dry the
inside of the oven with a soft cloth. Leave the
oven door open and allow the oven to dry
completely.
NOTE
• The Rinsing function must be completed even if
the Descaling function is canceled.
• If water remains on the oven bottom after
descaling, it can leave a residue after the oven is
used.
• After running the Descaling function, clean the
water tank.

Using Draining Function

The Draining function removes residual water
inside the steam generator. The function takes a
little over 1 minute and runs automatically after
any steam cooking cycle. The Draining function
can also be started manually, if needed.
