Descaling
Whenever steam is produced, irrespective of the
hardness of the local water supply (i.e. the limescale
content of the water), limescale is deposited inside the
steam generator.
The time interval between descaling depends on the
hardness of the water and frequency of use. If steaming
4×30 minutes per week, the appliance must be descaled
(depending on water hardness) roughly as follows:
The appliance automatically detects when descaling is
necessary and when this happens the Descale light
stays on .. If the Descaling procedure is not
performed, some cooking cycles after the Descale light
starts to flash. If once again the Descaling procedure is
not performed, some cooking cycles after the oven
functioning is blocked, the Descale light stays on and
the display shows “CAL” blinking.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Failure to descale the appliance will
likely impair the functioning of or cause damage to the
appliance.
Suitable descaling solutions
For descaling, use the descaling solution “DURGOL®”.
This solution allows a professional and careful descaling
of your appliance. Available at Customer Care Centres.
Warning! Do not use vinegar or vinegar-based products
as they can cause damage to the oven’s internal circuit.
Traditional descaling solutions are not appropriate
because they can contain foaming agents.
