Descaling
Only use proprietary citric acid
based descaling agents or
descaling tablets to descale the
appliance (available from the Spare
Parts Dept). Follow the
manufacturer's instructions given on
the packaging. Do not use vinegar
or descaling agents containing
vinegar, as these can cause
corrosion.
With aluminium appliances (see
data plate) ensure that the descaling
agent does not come into contact
with the aluminium surfaces as this
could cause marks. However, should
any descaling agent get onto the
aluminium surfaces, wipe it away im-
mediately.
The water container will need descaling
after a certain number of operating
hours. The display will alert you when
this needs done. After switching on, the
descaling symbol
k
and the number
5
will appear in the time/temperature
display.
The display indicates that the appliance
can be used a further 5 times before it
locks out. If the appliance is not
descaled immediately, a
4
will appear
in the display the next time the
appliance is switched on, and so on
until it has been used five times. The
appliance will then lock. "DESCALE" will
appear in the display and the appliance
must be descaled before it can be
used again.
