To make sure your coee maker operates eciently, to clean the internal pipes, and to preserve the flavor of your coee,
the coee machine needs to be descaled, cleaned and maintained periodically. After 󾋼󾋷󾋷 brew cycles, a descaling
warning will be shown. All indicator lights will flash 󾋼times to indicate it is time to descale the machine. The descaling
warning will appear at every time start-up if you do not cancel it.
01. Fill the water tank with water plus a descaling agent (󾋻parts water to 󾋸part descaling agent) to the MAX level.
Please also refer to the instructions on the descaling agent. Please use a household descaling agent, or you can use
citric acid instead of a commercial descaling agent – in this case use 󾋸󾋷󾋷 parts of water to three parts of citric acid.
02. Place a cup/mug or other suitable receptacle on the drip tray and press the “Double cup” button once to start the
brewing cycle. Allow the machine to drip about 󾋸󾋷󾋷ml/󾋺󾋻fl.oz of water into the cup. Then turn of the appliance
and
leave the descaling solution in the appliance for 󾋼minutes.
03. Turn on the appliance again and repeat the previous step three more times.
04. Next, repeat the process two more times using only CLEAN TAP WATER without any descaling agent.
05. After you have finished the descaling, you need to cancel the descaling warning: simultaneously press and hold the
“Single cup” button, “Double cup” button and “Steam” button for 󾋺seconds.
