Descaling

When to descale
- Descale the SENSEO coffee machine as described below when the
®
CALC CLEAN indicator goes on. The CALC CLEAN indicator goes on
after you have brewed approx. 1000 cups of SENSEO
250 cups of SENSEO coffee varieties with milk. You can also descale
®
the SENSEO coffee machine more often in the same way. You have to
®
descale the machine at least every 3 months. The descaling procedure
takes approx. 40 minutes.
Why to descale
Scale builds up inside the machine during use. It is essential to descale the
SENSEO coffee machine when the CALC CLEAN indicator goes on. 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 residues remain
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 section 'Descaling procedure' below. Each
descaling mixture can be used only once. After use, the descaling mixture is
no longer active.
Philips SENSEO has developed a special descaler (HD7012, HD7011,
®
HD7006) for SENSEO machines. 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 will certainly damage your SENSEO

The descaling procedure consists of 2 cycles:
- a descaling cycle (approx. 35 minutes)
