increased noise during brewing or
residual water remaining in the container
indicate that descaling has become
necessary.
∙ An excessive build-up of lime deposits
is very difficult to remove, even when
strong descaling agents are used. It
may also cause the brewing system to
leak. We therefore strongly recommend
descaling the appliance after each thirty
to forty brewing cycles. For descaling, a
vinegar solution may be used as follows:
∙ Mix 80 ml of vinegar essence with the
indicated maximum amount of cold
water.
∙ Pour the descaling solution into the
water container, insert a paper filter
into the filter holder without adding
any ground coffee as described in
section Making coffee, and let the
appliance run through one filtration
cycle. Repeat the procedure if
necessary. During descaling, ensure
sufficient ventilation and do not inhale
any vinegar vapours.
∙ To clean the appliance after descaling,
let it run through 2-3 filtration cycles
using clean water only.
∙ Do not pour descalers down enamel
sinks.
