Troubleshooting

Possible Cause
The appliance has no power supply.
The appliance is faulty.
After the appliance has been used without
or with too little liquid, the appliance has not
cooled down sufficiently.
Water Level Indicator
1. Unscrew the knurled nut from the water level indicator.
2. Pull the transparent tube out of the sleeve. If needed,
you may also unscrew the sleeve.
NOTE:
Make sure that the two silicone seals are not getting
lost.

detergent has been added. Rinse with clean water.
4. Screw the sleeve back onto the drain tap. The lower
thread must no longer be visible.
5. Insert the tube together with a silicone seal at the bottom
into the sleeve.
6. Before screwing the knurled nut back on insert the sec-
ond silicone seal into the upper part of the tube.

Decalcification

• The frequency of the decalcifying operation depends
on the hardness of the water and on how often the
appliance is used.
• Calcareous water causes a layer of lime to settle in the
tank, especially at the bottom of the tank, which can
influence the heating capacity of the appliance.
• Please do not use vinegar but a commercially available
decalcification agent on the basis of citric acid. Only use
the quantities stated in the instructions.
NOTE:
After decalcifying the appliance boil fresh water in it sev-
eral times in order to remove any residues. Do not use
this water for consumption.

Storage

• Clean the appliance as described and allow it to dry.
• We recommend that you keep the appliance in the origi-
nal packaging if it will not be used for long periods.
• Always store the appliance out of the reach of children in
a dry, well ventilated place.
Remedy
Check the socket with another appli-
ance.
Plug in the mains plug correctly.
Check the main circuit breaker.
Contact our service centre or a
specialist.
Fill with more liquid and let the appli-
ance cool down a bit.
