11. THE ORANGE “BOILER RINSE” LIGHT FLASHESNote:

• To extend the efficient operating life of your boiler and avoid scale particles on your linen, your generator is equipped with an orange “boiler rinse” warning light that flashes on the control panel after about 10 uses.

•If your water is hard, increase the frequency.

•Do not use descaling agents for rinsing out the boiler, as they could damage it.

1. TO RINSE THE BOILER USING RINSING ACCESSORY

For greater effectiveness and for ease of operation, you are advised to use the rinsing accessory provided in the box.

It will make it easier to rinse the boiler as the generator will need less handling.
