time during a cycle, press and hold the
control button for 2 seconds to return 
to selection mode or, unplug at the mains.

• Always disconnect the lead from the

back of the steriliser before pouring
away water and/or rinsing.

when not in use.

• The power supply must be removed 

from the unit for it to be completely
switched off.

should be used with the iQ24 Steriliser.

Care of your steriliser

Using pre-boiled or filtered water in your
iQ24 Steriliser can reduce limescale build
up. You should de-scale your steriliser every
four weeks
, or as often as needed in hard
water areas, to ensure it continues to work
100% effectively. Under no circumstances
should anything other than citric acid or
vinegar be used as it may cause irreparable
damage. Avoid contact with eyes as this
may cause irritation. Keep out of the reach
of children.

EITHER:
1. Mix one sachet of citric acid (10gms) 

with 200ml of water*. Pour into the
empty steriliser. Do not put lid on.
Activate Mode 1 and leave for 1-2
minutes. Unplug and leave to stand for
30 minutes. Drain and rinse the inside 
of the steriliser. Then in Mode 1, run a
full sterilising cycle empty with the lid
on, using exactly 90ml of water. Drain
and wipe dry. 

OR:
2.  Pour 100ml vinegar mixed with 200ml 

cold water into the steriliser. Allow to
stand in the unit until any limescale has
dissolved. Drain and rinse the inside of 
the steriliser thoroughly. Wipe dry.

*Citric Acid is available from most chemists 
– avoid contact with eyes as this may cause
irritation. Keep out of reach of children.
