Care & Cleaning
Removing scale. (Once every two or three months)
1 Make sure that the mesh filter is attached to the container.
2 Put citric acid in the inner container. ● Amount of citric acid to be used at one time:
    80 g (two packages) or seven level tablespoons.
The citric acid is available from an authori zed dealer. (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.

4 Connect the plug, and choose  in  .
5 Unplug, remove the lid and empty the hot water via the “DRAIN” mark.
6 Refill with water and boil it to remove the smell of the citric acid or lemons.
  Then throw the hot water away in the same manner as 5.
● To remove any discoloration from the area above the maximum water level, rub the inside lightly  
  with a wet non-abrasive sponge.
● If the discoloration cannot be removed by rubbing, clean the inner container several times using  
  citric acid or lemons.
● When washed without removing charcoal filter, wash the active charcoal filter, fix it in the inner container and throw out the initial boiled water before use.
● Make sure to only use citric acid for thermo pot washing.● Do not fill with water above maximum water level.● Fill the container only with tap water (do not fill with hot water). Hot water may spout out causing burns.

Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
 Before calling a service supplier,please check the following possible causes/solutions.
Possible causeIf...Solution
White or glitteringflakes  floating  in 
the hot water.
● The cause of this is “scale”. (See P.20) 
  It is not flakes of fluororesin.
  * 
Water with a large content of minerals  
    in it such as mineral water or ionised  
    water, is more likely to cause a scale  
    or white layer in the hot water.
● When “scale” has adhered, boiling   sounds become louder.Boiling sounds 
become louder.
● Odors of chlorine remain depending on  
  the amount of chlorine in tap water.Hot water has odors of chlorine.
● When  the  unit  is  new,  resin  used  in  the  manufacturing  may  give  off  a 
mild odor. This will disappear with use. 
● If the unit is placed on surfaces such as a vinyl sheet, the odor may be carried over into the water.
Hot water has an 
unpleasant odor.
● Water has been added above maximum  
  water level.Hot water comes out by itself.● Lower the water level.
●  The  mesh  filter  may  be  clogged  with
  “scale”. (See P.20)Hot water does not 
flow out smoothly.● Clean the filter with a brush.● If the “scale” cannot be removed, 
  replace the filter. (See P.23)
● The  automatic  lock  has  been  engaged.Hot  water  does not dispense.● Press the “Lock/Unlock” key.
● Clean the inner container  with a wet sponge. 
  (See P.20)
● If the “scale” still remains,  clean with citric acid.  
  (See P.21)
● Press the “Long Boil/Reboil” key to reduce the chlorine. (See P.16)

No-water boiling prevention function● To prevent failure by over-heating, this is activated when no water remains.● Is water filled higher than water supply level ?● Is lid left open when water 
is filled ?
VIP Keep-warm
● It may light on:● when hot water is added.● depending on filling 
method of water.
● Is citric acid settled at the bottom of container while citric acid washing ?
● Fill the water higher than water supply level, close the lid and press .
● Press .
● Once plug is disconnected, mix with chopsticks and wash after citric acid is 
distributed. (See P.21)
If boiled empty, odor is caused or the color of fluorine resin changes.

Mesh filter
● If the problem cannot be resolved, or if you think something is still wrong with the unit, disconnect 
the plug, reconnect after 30 seconds and operate it again.
● Inside lid may turn yellow, but operation will not be affected.● “Clickety-clack” sound caused when open and close the lid is the sound caused by the valve swing to prevent the hot water run off.● Outside body becomes  113°F(45°C) while warm keep if the room temperature is high.
The unit doesn’t turn on .
● If the electric components get wet, the unit must be repaired. Contact the store where you purchased 
the unit for repair.
● You poured in water directly from a tap.
● You put the unit on the sink.
● You turned the unit upside down with 
  its bottom wet.
● You washed the unit in water.
