Descaling (New Procedure); Descaling Procedure - Philips HD7828 SENSEO Bedienungsanleitung

Descaling (new procedure)

When to descale
- Descale the SENSEO
CALC light goes on (after you have brewed approx. 400 cups
of SENSEO coffee).
®
Why to descale
Scale builds up inside the machine during use. It is essential to descale the
SENSEO coffee machine at least every 3 months. Your reasons to descale:
®
- It prolongs the life of your SENSEO
- It ensures maximum cup volume
- It ensures maximum coffee temperature
- The machine produces less sound during brewing
- It prevents malfunctioning
If the descaling procedure is not performed correctly, scale residue remains
behind in the machine. This causes scale to build up more quickly and may
cause permanent and irreparable damage to the machine.
Use the correct descaling agent
Only citric acid-based descalers are suitable for descaling the SENSEO
machine. This type of descaler descales the machine without damaging
it. For the correct amount, see under 'Descaling procedure' below. Each
descaling mixture can be used only once. After use, the descaling mixture is
no longer active.
We advise you to use the special SENSEO
HD7006). For more information about this descaler, visit our website
www.philips.com.
Never use a descaling agent based on mineral acids such as sulphuric
acid, hydrochloric acid, sulphamic acid and acetic acid (e.g. vinegar).
These descaling agents may damage your SENSEO
