Maintenance
- Water to use
It is recommended to use pre-boiled or filtered water to reduce the generation of scale.
- Cleaning water storage tank
It is recommended to descale the product every 1-2 weeks to ensure it works at
100% efficiency. The citric acid and white vinegar are good choices to descale
the product, and for the descaling method, you may refer to the instructions
on the package or just do as follows (the following heating function does not
include drying).
When using citric acid: Dissolve 1 packet (10g) of citric acid in 150 ml
of water, pour the solution into the water storage tank of the base， press
“Power” and press “Reheating/Steam”, and let the product work for 1-2 mins.
Cut off the power supply and rest the solution in the tank for 30 mins. Pour
it out, rinse the tank thoroughly and dry. When using white vinegar: Dilute 30
ml of white vinegar with 120 ml of cold water, pour the solution into the
water storage tank of the base， press “Power”, press “Reheating/Steam”, and
let the product work for 1-2 mins. Cut off the power supply and rest the
solution in the tank for 30 mins. Pour it out, rinse the tank thoroughly and
dry.
Cleaning air filter

cleaning, re-install it on the base with the silver side outward. Before using
citric acid, read the instructions carefully. Do not touch eyes. Place it

Q & A
-
What items can be put into the product for sterilization?
Generally, items that can withstand high temperature above 100 °C and release no hazardous substance after being heated can be sterilized (for details, refer to the instructions of these items or consult professionals), such as PP bottle, glass bottle, silicone bottle, pacifier, teether, safe tableware made of safe materials. -
Is there any strict requirements for water quality?
Generally, for sterilization, purified water or treated drinking water is recommended. Untreated tap water has a lot of impurities and is more likely to produce scale. This will increase the cleaning difficulty and may affect the normal operation of the product. -
Why is the sterilization time too short?
The reason why the sterilization time is too short may be the water added is too little. Generally, the recommended minimum amount of water to be added is about 90 ml. It is appropriate to maintain a sterilization time of 10-15 minutes. -
Why are there still water droplets on some items after drying?
The drying effect will be affected if too many items are placed or items are placed too densely or at improper angles. It is recommended to sterilize and dry items in batches, or appropriately increase the drying duration and frequency. -
Why are there still water drops on the inner wall of Body (near the overlap between Lid and Body) after drying cycle completes?
During the drying process, the water steam condenses into water drops trapped in the overlap between Lid and Body, and can’t be fully dried up. When Lid is opened, some water drops slide down the inner wall of Body from the overlap. The water condensation can be reduced by longer drying duration.
