CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
- Pour the cold descaling solution
into the tank; do not forget to
place the jug and start the
coffee-maker.
- Stop the appliance once half the
solution has run through and
leave for about an hour. Start the
coffee-maker again and let the
rest of the solution run through.
- After descaling, the appliance
must be operated at east 2 or 3
times with fresh water to rinse.
The guarantee does not cover coffee-
makers with excessive scale build-up.
• Descaling frequency depends on the
hardness of your water and how
often you use your coffee-maker.
If you notice the brew cycle has
slowed it is generally time to descale
the machine.
Depending on the water hardness,
you must descale after every 40 to
120 cycles, i.e. once a month to once
every 3 months.
• If you use descaling powder or
liquid, follow the instructions
provided by the manufacturer on the
packet.
• If you use white vinegar (available
from hardware stores):
- Mix 2 cupfuls of vinegar with
2 cupfuls of water.
