Using the appliance will cause limestone deposits to form in the steam duct (I) and
the heating tank (J). How quickly both parts will calcify is down to water hardness
and how frequently you use the air humidifier. Limestone deposits impair the effi-
ciency of the air humidifier, therefore the appliance should be descaled once a week
as follows:
1. Remove the cover (C) from the switched off, unplugged and cooled down ap-
pliance using the removal loop (E).
2. Remove the steam duct (I) situated in the water tank from the base by turning
the steam duct clock wisely and lifting it (see Fig. 6).
3. Fill the water tank with cold tap water.
4. Rinse the water tank multiple times and pour out the water, but be careful to
keep the water from running over the power cord or the ON / OFF button (A)
resp. the function light (B) (see Fig. 7)
5. Use a soft brush to remove the limestone deposits from the heater unit (J) (sup-
ply duct, heating tank and resistor) in the center of the water tank.
6. Pour tap water into the empty water tank again and add some decalcifying
agent suitable for air humidifiers (f.e. SOLIPOL
tities and prescriptions given on the agent bottle. Let the solution sit with the
cover closed as prescribed. Then, empty out the water and wipe the tank interi-
or clean with a cloth. Rinse the water tank (K), the cover (C) and especially the
steam duct (I) and the heating tank (J) multiple times and dry all parts with a
soft cloth. Please make sure that you use a suitable decalcifying agent. Damage
caused by an unsuitable decalcifying agent is not covered by the warranty.
