Note: To remove stubborn brown deposits, fill the jug with hot water and add a spoonful of soda. Leave
the soda in the jug for some time. Then empty the jug and remove the deposits with a soft brush. Rinse
the insulated jug with fresh hot water.
Descaling
Regular descaling prolongs the lifetime of your coffeemaker and guarantees optimal brewing results
for a long time.
In case of normal use (two full jugs of coffee every day), descale the appliance:
- 2 or 3 times a year if you use soft water (up to 18dH);
- 4 or 5 times a year if you use hard water (over 18dH).
You can use white vinegar with 4% acetic acid or an appropriate liquid descaler. If you use a liquid
descaler, follow the instructions on the package.
Never use vinegar with an acetic acid content of 8% or more, natural vinegar, powder descalers
or tablet descalers to descale the appliance, as this may cause damage.
Fill the water tank up to the maximum level with white vinegar (4% acetic acid).
1
Put a paper filter or the permanent filter in the filter holder to collect the scale.
2
Switch on the appliance and let it complete two brewing cycles. Let the appliance cool down
3
for about 3 minutes between the brewing cycles.
Note: You can reuse the vinegar of the first cycle for the second cycle.
Note: We advise you to put a new paper filter in the filter holder or to rinse the permanent filter
thoroughly after the first brewing cycle.
Fill the water tank with fresh cold water and remove the paper filter or the permanent filter.
4
Let the appliance complete two brewing cycles with fresh cold water to remove all vinegar or
5
descaler residues. Let the appliance cool down for about 3 minutes between the brewing cycles.
Note: Do not reuse water that comes out of the appliance for the next brewing cycle. Always use fresh water.
Note: If necessary, repeat step 5 until the water that comes out of the appliance no longer tastes or
smells of vinegar.
Clean the permanent filter (if used), the jug and the filter holder (see chapter 'Cleaning').
