you mix the mains water with some distilled water. Otherwise, the jets for
the steam blast function could calcify (become blocked) prematurely.
To extend the optimal steam blast function, mix mains water with
distilled water according to the table:
Water hardness Ratio of distilled
water to
tap water
very soft/soft 0
medium 1:1
hard 2:1
very hard 3:1
The water hardness level can be queried at your local water works.
