Cleaning and care
Cleaning
Remove the mains plug and allow the appliance to cool down. Do not
immerse the appliance in water, but rather clean it using a damp cloth
with a little washing-up liquid and then dry it. Do not use any harsh or
abrasive cleaning agents.
The heating bowl (5) is made of stainless steel. If rust spots do appear
however, they are only deposits that have formed on the surface. You
must remove these immediately using a stainless steel cleaning agent.
The egg insert (3) and cover with integrated water measuring device (1a)
are made of high-quality Tritan® and can be cleaned in the dishwasher.
Descaling
Limescale deposits lead to energy losses and have a negative effect
upon the appliance service as well as the cooking results. The appliance
switches off prematurely if the layer of limescale is too thick. The
limescale is then very difficult to remove. Therefore descale the appliance
regularly.
We recommend using Cromargol®. This product is highly effective, food
safe and is neutral in taste and smell. Thanks to its special care formula
with six high-quality and protective additives, Cromargol® is also very
gentle on materials.
You can usually purchase Cromargol® from the store where you have
purchased your appliance or from your chosen dealer. The Cromargol®
decalcifier is only available in Germany and Austria.
▪ Prior to descaling, unplug the appliance from the mains and allow it
to cool down.
▪ Pour half a portion (50 ml) of Cromargol® into the heating bowl
(5) and leave the appliance to stand until the layer of limescale has
detached from the base. Then fill the heating bowl (5) with cold tap
water to cover the limescale ring on the wall and leave to stand for
15 minutes.
▪ Then pour out and thoroughly rinse with cold tap water.
▪ Measure out and use other descaling agents according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
Do not heat the solution during descaling.
Caution: the warranty does not cover damage caused by not observing
the descaling instructions.
