Maintenance guide for your vertical steamer
We have included an explanatory video in this article to guide you step by step. Follow these visual instructions for efficient and stress-free maintenance.
Steps to Maintain Your Vertical Steamer
1. Draining the steamer
Before you begin, make sure the appliance is turned off and completely cooled down to avoid any risk of burns. The plug is usually located under the steamer. Place the appliance over a sink, open the drain plug and let the water drain completely. This step removes any stagnant water or limescale residue.
2. Descaling the steamer
Limescale is one of the main enemies of steam appliances. Here's how to effectively descale:
Mix one part white vinegar and two parts water. Pour the solution into your steamer's reservoir. Turn on the steamer and let it heat up. Let the solution drain completely to clean the internal passages.
Once the tank is empty, rinse it with clean water to remove all traces of vinegar.
Additional maintenance tips
To ensure optimal use of your steamer, follow this maintenance schedule:
-
Empty the tank after each use: avoid water remaining stagnant in the tank if you do not use it daily.
-
Descaling every 2 months: if you frequently use tap water, carry out regular descaling to avoid limescale build-up.
- Cleaning the nozzles: Check the steam diffusion nozzles and clean them if necessary.
