7.4.7Descaling / automatic limescale indicator

The machine should be descaled every time the clear text display indicates ”descale“. Never use vinegar for descaling since this may damage the machine. Commercially-available antiliming agents suitable for this type of machine are to be used. If the machine is switched off during the descaling procedure the process will be continued when it is switched on again.

The level of water hardness will detemine how frequently the machine needs to be descaled. A test strip has been included with the machine to test the water hardness. Hold this strip under water for one second and take the reading after a minute. The water hardness level shown should be entered in the user settings under “water hardness” (see 7.2.1). The automatic lime scale display will align itself with this setting and will automatically show when it is time to descale.
