5 Maintenance
The GIGA builds up deposits of limescale over time and automati-
cally prompts you to descale it when necessary. The degree of calci-
fication depends on the hardness of your water.
Non-recommended descaling agents (e.g. vinegar) may contain
substances that could damage the machine or leave residues.
T
Use only original JURA descaling tablets. These are specially
formulated for your machine.
