19 Descaling
To ensure that your appliance continues to operate cor-
rectly, it must be descaled regularly.
The frequency with which the appliance must be de-
scaled depends on the hardness of the water used.
The symbol reminds you to run the descaling pro-
gramme.
There are four steps in the descaling programme. For
hygiene reasons, the descaling programme must be
run through completely so that the appliance can be
ready for operation again. Descaling takes around 90–
110 minutes in total:
Display Step
First step: Descaling
Approx. 65 min
Second step: Rinse cycle
Approx. 9 min
Third step: Rinse cycle
Approx. 9 min
Fourth step: Rinse cycle
Approx. 9 min
19.1 First step ( ⁠ ⁠ ⁠)
ATTENTION!
The length of time for which the descaler is left to work
is based on the recommended, liquid descaler. Other
descalers may damage the appliance.
▶
Only use the liquid descaler recommended by us
for the descaling programme.
If descaling solution comes into contact with the control
panel or other delicate surfaces, it will damage them.
▶
Remove descaling solution immediately with water.
Note:
Do not pour more than 150 ml of liquid into the
water tank throughout the descaling process.
1. Mixing a descaling solution:
– 50 ml liquid descaler
