Descaling the
appliance
How often you need to descale
the appliance will depend on your
water hardness. More or less
scale will form depending on how
hard your water is.
Regular descaling will
– prolong the life of the appliance,
– ensure that it works properly,
– prevent excessive steam,
– shorten brewing times,
– save energy.

according to manufacturer in-
structions.
2. Make sure that the appliance
mains plug (5) is removed from
the socket and the appliance
has cooled down completely.
3. Pour the descaling liquid into
the water tank (3) up to the
