CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Warning!
maintenance operations, always switch
off the appliance, unplug the power cable
completely cool, including the lid (E) and the
steam duct.
Cleaning of the water tank, the heating
tank and lid
During normal use of the appliance, due to
salts in the water, scale deposits may form
on the steam duct (J) and in the heating tank
(I). These deposits could form fairly quickly
according to the type of water, its hardness
and frequency of use of the appliance. The
higher the water hardness, the faster the
formation of deposits. Deposits decrease
performance and may impede normal
operation of the appliance. As such decalcify
at least once a week as follows:
1. Remove the lid (E) using the holding points (F).
2. Inside the tank, remove the cover of the
steam duct (J) and extract the latter from its
seat by turning it clockwise (Fig. 6).
3. Refill the tank with cold drinking water.
4. Rinse several times, allowing the water to
drain from the drain point on the side of
the appliance (L), taking care not to wet
(A) (Fig. 7).
5. Clean the heating unit (supply channel,
heating tank and resistance) (I) located at
the centre of the water tank, removing the
calcium deposits.
6. After having removed any residual water,
pour about 2 litres of a solution made up of
equal parts water and white wine vinegar
into the water tank. Reposition the lid (E) on
the water tank (C) and wait about 4 hours.
Then gently shake the appliance for a few
minutes and remove any residues of calcium
with a cloth. Rinse the water tank (C) several
times with drinking water, the lid (E) and in
particular the steam duct (J), its cover (J) and
the heating tank (I). Allow to drain and dry
thoroughly with a soft cloth the water tank,
the lid, the steam duct and its cover.
7. Dry the inside, passing a dry cloth gently
over the entire surface of the appliance.
8. Reposition the steam duct in its seat on the
inside of the tank turning it anti-clockwise
and re-insert its cover.
