Descaling
Scale normally forms while the machine is
being used; descaling is necessary every
4-6 months of use or whenever you observe
a decrease in water flow.
If you wish to descale the machine
yourself, you may use any
commercially available non-toxic and/
or non-harmful descaling agent for
coffee machines.
Warning!
Never use vinegar as a descaling
agent.
