Cleaning and care
The indicator lights in the control panel will guide you through
the descaling process. Follow the indicator light prompts,
e.g. 2 empty the residual water drawer, k fill the water
container etc.
The entire descaling process takes approx. 90 minutes. Carry
out the necessary actions only when prompted to do so by
the indicator lights. You will need to be present at approx. 20
minutes and a further 60 minutes after starting the descaling
process. The steam ironing system can be unattended for the
remainder of the descaling process.
It is best to begin the descaling process when the appliance
is cool and directly after switching on. This will avoid a
waiting time of up to three hours if the appliance needs to
cool down.
