Descaling
Limescale deposits lead to losses of energy and impair the service life
of the device. It shuts off prematurely if the limescale layer is too
thick. It can then only be removed with great difficulty. Therefore
descale regularly.
We recommend using Cromargol®. This is highly effective and non-
abrasive.
▪ Prior to descaling, unplug the device and allow it to cool. Remove
the strainer and place on the base of the kettle.
▪ Replace the strainer after descaling has finished.
▪ Fill with one portion (100 ml) of Cromargol® and leave the device
until the limescale layer on the bottom is removed. Then fill the
device with cold tap water to cover the limescale ring on the wall
and allow to stand for 15 minutes.
▪ Then pour out and thoroughly rinse with cold tap water.
▪ Dose and use other descaling agents according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
Do not heat the solution during descaling.
Attention: there is no claim under warranty for damages caused by not
observing the descaling instructions.
Causes for malfunctions
▪ Device switches off before boiling:
Bottom of the pot is too strongly calcified,
it is not filled with enough water
▪ Device will not switch on:
The device has not sufficiently cooled down following operation
with no or too little water.
If it is not possible to fix this problem, submit the device for repair.
