Descaling the appliance

Descaling extends the life of your appliance.
Descale your coffee maker at least 4 times per
year. The period depends on the water hardness
in your area. The harder the water is, the more
often the appliance has to be descaled.
1
Purchase a suitable descaler from a speciality
store. Please ask naming the device.
2
Prior to commencing the descaling process
thoroughly read the manufacturer's package
insert of the descaler. Should the manufac-
turer's instructions differ from the ones listed
below, then follow the manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
Note
You can also use white vinegar and lemon acid
7
instead of a commercially available descaler.
3 Fill the water tank to the "MAX" mark and add
descaler. Mixing ratio: 4 parts water to 1 part
descaler.
4 Turn the appliance on and allow approxi-
mately one large coffee cup to run through the
appliance.
5
Turn the appliance off.
6 Let the mixture soak for about 15 minutes.
7 Repeat steps 4 – 6.
8
Now turn the appliance on and let the entire
mixture run through.
