E. AUTOMATIC DESCALING
Use after use, scale builds up. Scale interfers with fi ne mechanics and gives coff ee a hard
and bitter taste. That is why the appliance should be regularly descaled to ensure good
quality coff ee. The descaling frequency depends upon the hardness of your tap water and how
often you use the coff emaker.
• When the coff eemaker needs descaling, the descaling indicator light next to the
button
begins to fl ash when the coff ee is turned on.
• Descale the coff ee maker with a descaling solution, following the manufacturers guidelines.
• Press the
button and press
. The descaling indicator light stays on. The coff eemaker is now
in “automatic descaling” mode.
• When the cycle is completed, 5 beeps sound.
• A single descaling cycle is generally enough. Press
to see if the descaling light continues
to fl ash. If not, the coff eemaker is descaled. If the indicator light continues to fl ash, repeat the
descaling operation.
• When the appliance is descaled, rinse by running a complete cycle with fresh water: fi ll the
reservoir up to its maximum level with cold fresh water (without coff ee nor fi lter). Press
and
let water fl ow.
NOTE:
Pressing the descaling button cancels all other settings. If it is pressed accidentally, press it
again to return the coff eemaker to all its previous settings.
6. HINTS & TIPS
• For a more fl avourful coff ee, use freshly ground coff ee. Its fl avour and aroma will develop even
further when brewing.
• For a lightly fl avoured coff ee, place a cinnamon stick, some vanilla or a cardamom seed, for
example, in the coff ee pot.
• Reheating coff ee that has gone cold is not recommended. Its taste will be altered and it will lose
its aroma.
