• Fill the inner pot with water and lemon juice (or a suitable de-scaler), and boil.
• Discard the solution. Note: Always run water through the appliance after de-scaling to rinse the inner pot and tubes.

Note: Use a suitable de-scaler and always follow the instructions on the packaging. Buffalo recommends that this appliance is de-scaled every 3 months or more frequently in hard water areas.

IMPORTANT : Failure to de-scale or maintain will invalidate your guarantee.
