Do not use
abrasive cleaning
products.
Do not
immerse the water
tank in water.
Descale the
appliance every
8 uses.
Do not use
other scale-removing
products.
Cleaning the appliance
• Empty the water tank and clean it with a
damp cloth.
• All the other removable parts can be put
in the dishwasher.
• Clean the turbo ring after each using.
Note:
some natural strong coloured juices from
food such as carrots, beetroot etc… may
cause staining in the juice collector and the
water tank. This is normal and will not
effect cooking.
To try and avoid staining, wash these two
parts immediately after each use. You may
also use a mild bleach if necessary and
rinse thoroughly.
Removing scale build-up
from the appliance
• Position the turbo ring upside down
arround the heating element (the largest
part uppermost).
• Fill the water tank with cold water up to
“max.” level.
• Fill the inside of the turbo ring with white
vinegar up to the same level.
• Do not heat up (to avoid any descaling
odour). Leave overnight to descale.
• Rinse out the inside of the water tank
with warm water several times.
Storing the baskets
• Put the rice bowl (depending on model)
upside down in the juice colector.
• Stack the baskets one inside the other
following the order shown.
• Turn all parts over on the base unit. Put
the lid over them all.
