What water to use?
• Your appliance has been designed to use untreated tap water.
Do not use pure demineralised or pure distilled water, water from clothes dryers, scented or softened water, rain water,
filtered, bottled or boiled water, water from refrigerators, batteries or air conditioners as these may damage the appliance.
These types of water contain organic waste, mineral elements that become concentrated when heated and cause spitting,
brown staining, leaking or premature wear on your appliance. If your water is very hard, mix 50% untreated tap water
with 50% distilled water (available in hardware stores). This water contains organic waste materials or minerals that
concentrate under the effect of heat and cause spitting, brown colouring or premature ageing of your appliance.
