De-Scaling Your Brewer

Mineral content in water varies from place to place. Depending on the mineral content of the water in your area, calcium deposits or scale may build up in your Brewer. Scale is non- toxic, but left unattended, it can hinder Brewer performance. De-scaling your Brewer helps maintain the heating element, and other inter- nal parts of the Brewer that come in contact with water.

The Brewer should be de-scaled every 6 months to ensure optimal performance. It is possible for calcium deposits to build up faster, making it necessary to de-scale more often.

This Brewer is equipped with sensors to detect when scale buildup is interfering with the performance of the Brewer. When this is detected, the amber light next to 'DE-SCALE' will be illuminated.
