Ground coffee is flowing over the GoldTone Filter

Attention: Before decalcifying, remove the GoldTone Filter from the machine.

11a. How to Decalcify with DURGOL Capresso and many European com- panies recommend "Durgol" a liquid decalcifying agent. Durgol removes any calcium deposits up to 20 times faster than vinegar.

1.Remove the GoldTone Filter.

2.Fill the water container with 18 oz. cold water. Add 6 oz. Durgol and stir. Attention: Never fill Durgol into the water container first.

3.Make sure that the filter holder is in place and that the Stainless Steel Carafe is empty. Place the Carafe with the closed lid on the platform.

4.Let the solution sit for 5 minutes.

5.Turn the machine on and let the solution pass through.

6.When the red light turns off, remove the carafe, empty the solution and rinse the carafe thoroughly with fresh water a few times.

7.Fill 5 cups of fresh water into the water tank and brew through the machine.

11b. Using other Decalcifying Agents Please make sure only to use liquid decalcifying agents suitable for drip coffee makers and follow the instruc- tions which come with the agent. Attention: Decalcifying agents are acids and therefore must be handled properly. Please check the information on the packaging of the decalcifying agents before using.

12.Troubleshooting What to do if...

...Coffee drips from the filter, when the carafe is removed.

•Ground coffee sits in the drip stop and does not allow the drip stop to close properly. Immediately replace the carafe and wait until all the coffee

has been filtered in the carafe. Now remove carafe and remove the Filter holder. Clean filter holder under run- ning water. Push the drip stop several times to remove coffee particles. Over the sink fill some water into the filter holder and check if the drip stop closes properly.

•Use a paper filter (size 4) instead of the GoldTone Filter.
