CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
1. Remove the plug from the wall socket, and allow the appliance to cool.
2. Clean the jug with a damp cloth. Never immerse the appliance in water. Never put the appliance in a
dishwasher. Make sure that the electrical connections do not become damp.
3. If the interior of the jug has become severely discoloured, then the best way to clean it is with a damp
cloth and a little washing soda. After cleaning, rinse the jug very thoroughly.
WARNING:
• Never use corrosive or scouring cleaning agents or sharp objects (such as knives or hard brushes) to
clean the appliance.
• Before cleaning, make sure that the appliance is not connected to the power supply and that it has
cooled down.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE - Descaling
Lime can be deposited on the heating element at a rate depending on the hardness of the water. For this
reason the heating element must be cleaned at regular intervals.
1. Remove the plug from the wall socket, and allow the appliance to cool.
2. Fill the jug with a vinegar solution to the MAX level, and bring to the boil.
3. Leave the jug with the vinegar solution to stand for a couple of hours.
4. Empty the jug, fill with clean water to the MAX level, and bring to the boil. Empty the jug. Repeat this
process twice.
WARNING:
• Never use ammonia or similar to descale the appliance. These can be injurious to your health. Use
solely a vinegar solution, or special descaling agents available from retailers.
