Descaling - making your coffee
maker last longer
As a precautionary measure, we recom-
mend descaling every three months.
Only use an environmentally friendly
descaler and follow the instructions on
the packet. Please do not use a descaler
with a formic base, or any descaler in
powder form.
1
Fill the water reservoir with water and
only then add the descaler.
Not vice
versa!
