Decalcifi cation
•
The frequency of the decalcifying operation depends on the
hardness of the water and on how often the appliance is
used.
•
If the machine switches off before the water boils, it probably
needs to be decalcifi ed.
•
Please do not use vinegar but a commercially available
decalcifi cation agent on the basis of citric acid. Only use the
quantities stated in the instructions.
NOTE:
After descaling the device boil fresh water in it several times
(approximately 3-4 times) in order to remove any residues. Do
not consume this water.

Possible Cause:
After being used without or with too little water the machine
has not cooled down suffi ciently.
Remedy:
Allow the machine to cool down for 15 min.
