Safety Precautions

Please take these precautions strictly

 

WARNING

Power Cord

zNever do anything that might cause damage to the cord, power plug or body plug.

Do not damage them, modify them, place hot objects near to them, bend them, twist them, stretch them, place heavy objects on them, or bundle them together. If the unit is used when damaged, electrical short circuit or fire may cause.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord available from the manufacturer or an authorized service center (as described in the warranty).

Power cord

Power plug

Cord

Body plug

zDo not connect or disconnect the power plug or the body plug with wet hands.

This may cause electric shock.

zDo not allow infants access to the body plug.

You must pay special attention to prevent infants from putting the body plug into their mouths. This may cause electric shock or injury.

zDo not place small metal parts on the body plug.

This may cause electric shock, electrical short circuit or fire.

zMake sure the power plug is correctly inserted into the wall outlet.

If the power plug is inserted improperly it may cause electric shock or generate heat causing fire.

Do not use a damaged power plug or a connection in a loose outlet.

zDust off the power plug or the body plug regularly.

A build-up of dust on the plugs will attracts humidity, which could cause cable damage and the deterioration of insulation causing fire.

Remove the plugs and clean them with a dry cloth.

zUse a single outlet that matches the power rating of the unit.

Plugging multiple appliances into one outlet may generate heat and cause fire.

During use

z Do not immerse the unit in water or splash water over it.

y Do not supply water directly from the tap or place the unit in a sink where the bottom may get wet.

y Do not turn the unit upside down when the bottom is wet.

This may cause a short circuit and electric shock due to water enters the electrical parts in the main unit.

zNever disassemble, repair or modify the unit.

Any attempt to do so may cause the unit to operate abnormally and may cause fire or injury.

Please contact an authorized service center (as described in the warranty) for a check or repair.

zDo not use to store ice.

Condensation will occur, creating a potential source of electric shock and malfunction.

zDiscontinue using the appliance immediately when steam is ejecting over 15 minutes and it does not switch to keep-warm function.

This may cause burns.

Unplug the appliance immediately and contact an authorized service center (as described in the warranty) for a check or repair.

zUse a power outlet which is grounded.

y The power plug of this appliance is designed for a grounded outlet.

(Use of ungrounded power may cause a malfunction or electric shock due to electrical leakage.)

EN3

CAUTION

To Prevent Burns

z Do not place the unit on unstable surfaces.

The appliance may topple over causing burns.

z Do not open the lid or dispense hot water while boiling.

Splashing hot water or steam may cause burns.

z Do not rotate the unit while dispensing hot water.

Splashing hot water may cause burns.

z Do not touch the hot parts of the unit during use or shortly after use.

z Do not touch the lid opening lever when carrying the unit.

The lid may open causing burns and other injury.

z When opening or closing the lid, keep hands away from the steam.

z Wait until the unit is cooled down before cleaning.

A hot appliance may cause burns.

When disposing hot water, be careful not to get burned.

Power Cord

z Do not use a different power cord and do not use this power cord with any other

 

device.

English

(Do not use a power cord other than the one designed specifically for the unit.)

 

It may cause malfunction or fire.

 

z When the unit is not in use, unplug the power plug from the wall outlet.

 

Deteriorating insulation may cause electric shock and/or fire.

 

z When unplugging the unit, pull by the power plug - not the cord.

 

 

Electric shock and short circuit may cause fire.

 

During use

 

zDo not use the unit on surfaces that can be affected by heat for a long time.

The unit may get discolored or break up.

zDo not place near walls or furniture.

Steam and heat could damage walls and furniture, causing a change in color and shape.

zDo not let water spill on the plugs of the power cord.

This may cause electric shock.

zReplace gasket if it discolors whitish. (õ. EN16)

Otherwise it may cause hot water to spill out when it is leaned or knocked down accidentally.

About “Scale”

While you are using this unit, minerals contained in the water (like calcium) can get stuck on the inner container or on the mesh filter. This is called “scale”, and it is harmless.

zMilky-white gritty surface (caused by calcium)

zWhite or glittering floating material (crystals of minerals)

zDiscoloration in the finish like dark brown, gray, or green areas

(metallic ion made on the fluororesin covering)

These are not discoloration or corrosion of the inner container itself, nor are they flakes from the fluororesin covering.

Clean the inner container using citric acid. (õ. EN12)

Ceramic filter

Shake in water roughly every few months, and scrub the surface with soft sponges.

zDo not wash with detergent. (It causes odor remain)

zDo not use dishwasher with dryer or dish dryer. (It causes deformation)

Mesh filter

Clean the filter with a brush.

When filter is clogged, water does not flow smoothly.

* After cleaning the filter, be sure to reattach it to the inner container.

When storing the unit

zDry it thoroughly.

zPut it into a plastic bag and seal the bag to keep insects from getting in.

EN11

Once every two or three months to clear scale.

How to clean with citric acid

1 Make sure that the mesh filter is attached to the inner container.

2 Put citric acid in the inner container.

z Amount of citric acid to be used at one time:

Citric acid

80 g (two packages) or seven level tablespoons.

For citric acid, please contact an authorized service center (as described in the warranty). (Model No: SAN-80N)

*Follow the directions for cleaning printed on the citric acid package.

*Since the citric acid used for cleaning is a food additive, it is harmless to humans.

3 Add water to the maximum water level mark, and mix the citric acid and water well. Close the lid.

6 Refill with water and boil it to remove the smell of the citric acid. Then throw the hot water away in the same way as step 5.

zTo remove any discoloration from the area above the maximum water level, rub the inside lightly with a wet soft sponge.

zIf the discoloration cannot be removed by rubbing, clean the inner container several times using citric acid.

zWhen washed without removing ceramic filter, wash the ceramic filter under running water and fix it in the inner container. Boil water and drain away.

Requests

zMake sure only use citric acid for thermo pot washing.

zDo not fill water above maximum water level.

zFill the inner container only with tap water (do not fill with hot water). Hot water may spout out causing burns.

Troubleshooting

Before calling a service supplier,

please check the following possible causes.

If...

White or glittering flakes floating in the hot water.

Rough milky white substances are adhered to inner container.

Boiling sounds become louder.

Hot water has odors of chlorine.

Hot water has an unpleasant odor.

Hot water comes out by itself.

Hot water does not flow out smoothly.

Hot water does not dispense.

Plastic part of the lid is damaged.

Possible cause

zThe cause of this is “scale”. It is not flakes of fluororesin.

* Water with a large content of minerals is more likely to cause a scale.

e.g.

y Mineral water y Lonized water

zWhen “scale” adhered, boiling sounds become louder.

zOdors of chlorine remain depending on the amount of chlorine in tap water.
