Automatic descaling program of the steam circuit
A message on the screen will indicate when a descaling program needs to be run for the appliance.
The frequency of this program depends on the quality of the water used (the harder the water, the
more often the appliance has to be descaled) and on whether a Claris Aqua Filter System filter is
used or not. To run the descaling program, you will need a container with a capacity of at least
20 oz that may be placed underneath the coffee nozzles and the steam nozzle, and a KRUPS
descaling sachet (F 054 – a 40 g sachet is supplied in the Welcome Pack). The automatic descaling
program has three phases: one descaling cycle and two rinsing cycles. The program lasts
approximately 22 minutes.
Caution: You are not obliged to carry out the descaling program immediately the appliance
requests it, but it must be carried out reasonably soon. Only use KRUPS descaler sachets
supplied in the Welcome Pack; otherwise the guarantee will not cover any material damage
caused by the use of other brands of sachets. Descaler sachets are available from your
KRUPS After-Sales Service Center.
