4 Clean the jug and the filter holder in hot water with some washing-up liquid or in
the dishwasher (Fig. 26).
5 After cleaning, rinse the glass jug with fresh hot water (Fig. 27).

Water tank

1 Remove the water tank from the appliance (1) and remove the lid of the water tank
(2) (Fig. 28).
2 Clean the water tank in hot water, if necessary with some washing-up liquid (Fig. 29).
Note: If you use a washing-up brush, be careful not to damage the valve in the bottom of the water tank.
Do not use an object with sharp edges to clean the water inlet on the appliance.
3 Rinse the water tank with fresh water after cleaning and put it back onto the
appliance (Fig. 7).
Descaling
Regular descaling prolongs the life of the appliance 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. You can also use an appropriate liquid descaler.
In this case, follow the instructions on the package of the descaler.
Do not use a descaling powder.
1 Set the AromaSelect knob to the CALC position (Fig. 30).
Note: Use of the CALC position is preferred to get optimal descaling results. You can also descale without
setting the AromaSelect knob to the CALC position.
2 Fill the water tank with white vinegar (4% acetic acid). (Fig. 31)
3 Put a paper filter in the filter holder to collect scale (Fig. 32).
4 Press and hold the on/off switch until the word 'CALC' appears on the display (Fig. 33).
The appliance operates for 5 minutes and then switches off for 10 minutes to let the
,
descaling solution act. The appliance switches back on and operates for another 10 minutes
to complete the brewing cycle.
5 Let the appliance cool down for 3 minutes and remove the paper filter.
6 Repeat steps 2-5 once more. Re-use the vinegar in the jug to fill the water tank again.
7 Fill the water tank with fresh cold water. (Fig. 13)
8 Switch on the appliance and let it brew until the water tank is empty.
9 Repeat steps 7 and 8 once more.
Note: Repeat step 9 until the water in the jug no longer tastes or smells like vinegar.
10 Clean the separate parts (see chapter 'Cleaning').
