Descaling
•
Depending on the water quality (lime content) in your area as well as the
frequency of use, all thermal household appliances using hot water need
descaling (i.e. removal of lime deposits) on a regular basis to warrant proper
functioning.
•
For descaling, any commercially available citric- acid-based descaling agent for
coffee makers may be used.
•
Pour the descaling solution into the water container.
•
As described in the section “Making espresso”, (but without any ground coffee
being placed in) and, with the filter insert removed, switch the appliance on and
let it run, cup for cup, through the filtration cycles. Allow 5 minutes between each
cycle for the descaling agent to take effect.
•
To clean the appliance after descaling, fill the water container twice with clean
water and let each filling run through its filtration cycles until the container is
nearly empty.
•
Rinse the filter holder thoroughly with warm water.

Do not pour descalers down enamelled sink
