Stains on the inner surface
of the thermopot

The inner surface of the metal flask may change its
color when exposed to different water impurities.

vinegar.

To remove the flavour of citric acid or vinegar,
boil up water and pour it out.

Repeat this procedure until the smell and taste
vanish completely.

Descaling

Scale, appearing inside the metal flask, influ-
ences the water taste and disturbs the heat
exchange between water and the heating ele-
ment, which can lead to overheating and mal-
function.

mixture of one part ordinary vinegar and two
parts water up to the maximal level mark (15)

mopot and leave it filled with the vinegar solu-
tion overnight.

mal level mark (15) «МАКС», boil and pour out
