Descaling
It is vital that you descale your espresso maker
in order to guarantee its continued operation.
•
Descale your espresso maker at regular
intervals using the descaling powder
included with your machine.
We advise you to use the
KRUPS descaling
accessory, reference 054,
which is available
from approved KRUPS Service Centers. This
accessory includes, in addition to two doses of
descaler, a water hardness test strip to
evaluate the frequency of descaling for your
appliance in normal use. The amount of
scaling depends on the hardness of the water
you use and also on how often it is used. The
frequency of descaling indicated by accessory
054 is thus given by way of indication only.
You must never, under any circumstances, use
classic sulphamic acid or other products
containing this acid as there is a risk of
damaging the appliance. Carefully check the
composition of the descaling products you
intend to use.
- Then use the following method:
•
Remove the filter cartridge (p) by unscrewing
it using the key (p1).
