The ionizer automatically reverses the polarity of the plates after each cycle, preventing limescale buildup. It requires no intervention from the user.

With harder water or after longer use, more frequent weekly cleaning with E-Cleaner powder is necessary to remove accumulated scale.

Important: Automatic cleaning does not replace E-Cleaning. With hard water (above 250 mg/l CaCO₃), scale deposits build up despite daily auto-cleaning and require chemical removal.

Frequently Asked Questions — SD501DX Cleaning

How to start E-Cleaning mode on the SD501DX?
With the power off, press and hold the ◆ (Strong Acidic) button for 3 or more seconds. The device will beep and enter E-Cleaning mode. The relevant information will appear on the display.
Why can't I stop E-Cleaning after step 4?
Once the main cleaning cycle starts, the E-Cleaner solution begins circulating through the plates. Interrupting the process may leave chemical residue in the plates, requiring lengthy rinsing or additional servicing. The whole cycle must finish automatically.
How much E-Cleaner powder does the SD501DX use?
SD501DX wymaga 2 saszetek of E-Cleaner powder dissolved in 370 ml of water. This is the standard portion — don't reduce it, because too concentrated or too weak a solution lowers cleaning effectiveness.
How often to clean the SD501DX with Polish tap water?
Polish tap water varies in hardness — usually 200–350 mg/l CaCO₃. At such hardness I recommend E-Cleaning every 1–2 weeks. If you live in an area with very hard water (e.g. Kraków, Wrocław) — every week. With soft water (the Tricity) — every 2 weeks.
Where to buy E-Cleaner powder for the SD501DX?
E-Cleaner powder is available only through authorized Enagic distributors. Call 607 613 633 — I'll send it by courier, or you can pick it up in person.
Do the SD501DX and K8 use the same cleaning powder?
Yes — both devices use the same E-Cleaner powder. Only the amount of water to dissolve it differs: K8 — 350 ml, SD501DX — 370 ml. By buying a stock of powder, you can use it for both devices if you own them.
