Possible cause
●
The cause of this is "scale". (See P.20)
It is not flakes of fluororesin.
* Water with a large content of minerals
in it such as mineral water or ionised
water, is more likely to cause a scale
or white layer in the hot water.
●
When "scale" adhered, boiling sounds
become louder.
●
Odors of chlorine remain depending on
the amount of chlorine in tap water.
●
When the unit is new, resin used in the manufacturing process may
give off a mild odor.
●
If the unit is placed on surfaces such as a vinyl sheet, the odor may be
carried over into the water.
●
Water has been added above maximum
water level.
●
The mesh filter may be clogged with
"scale". (See P.20)
●
Overheating protection has been activated
(See P.15)
● The indicator lights may flash alternately
by adding boiling water or due to the way
the water is supplied.
●
When the inner container is cleaned with citric
acid, citric acid may have built up on the bottom.
●
The automatic lock has been engaged.
●
You poured in water directly from a tap.
●
You put the unit on the sink.
●
You turned the unit upside down with
its bottom wet.
●
You washed the unit water.
