Cleaning
Do not use abrasive or aggressive cleaning agents (e.g. bleach) or a scouring pad to clean this
appliance.
Never immerse the base, the mains cord or the mains plug in water or any other liquid.
Note: The steriliser is not dishwasher-proof. The baskets and the lid can be cleaned with hot water and
some washing-up liquid.

Clean the other parts in hot water with some washing-up liquid.
Note: After cleaning, store the steriliser in a clean, dry place.
Descaling
When you use the steriliser, small spots may appear on the heating element in the base. This is scale
that is building up. The harder the water, the faster scale builds up. Descale the steriliser at least
every 4 weeks to ensure that it continues to work effectively.

Pour 70ml cold water and 30ml white vinegar (8% acetic acid) into the water reservoir.
