WARNING
- risk of burns due to hot machine parts
The steam wand and frother nozzle remain hot after use.

Descaling
The descaling process cannot be interrupted. However, if it is interrupted
(e.g. due to a power outage), it must be completed the next time the
machine is switched on. The machine will not be able to brew coffee
again until the process is completed.
When the “Descale” symbol
appears on the display,
the machine needs to be
descaled.
Descale the machine within the next few days. Do not wait any longer, otherwise
so much limescale may build up that a descaling agent will no longer have any
effect.
Descaling takes about 15 minutes.
CAUTION
— damage to the machine due to limescale deposits
Descale the machine as soon as the machine indicates that
•
this is necessary
. This increases its service life and saves energy.
Do not use any descaling agents made on the basis of formic acid.
•
Use a standard liquid descaling agent suitable for coffee and espresso
•
machines. Other agents may damage materials in the machine and/or
have no effect.
