IV Decalcifying (without illustrations)
If you have hard water and you use your coffeemaker without a water filter, it has to be decalcified regularly. When using the water filter cartridge and exchanging it regularly, you ordinarily will not need to decalcify.
However, if your coffeemaker takes longer than usual to brew, it should be decalcified.
Important: Replace water filter with the space compensator during any decalcification procedure.
•You can either use a commercially available decalcifying agent which does not affect aluminum or white distilled vinegar (available at food stores).
a)If you are using decalcifying agent, follow the manufacturer's instructions.
b)If you are using white distilled vinegar, please pro- ceed as follows:
Fill the tank to the 6 cup level with white distilled vinegar. Do not mix the vinegar with water or any other liquid.
Turn on the coffeemaker and allow half of the vinegar to flow through.
Switch off the appliance and leave for 10 minutes. Switch it on again and allow the rest of the vinegar to flow through.
•Repeat either procedure as many times as necessary in order to reduce the brewing time per cup to a normal level.
•Allow the maximum amount of fresh cold water to run through at least twice to clean the coffeemaker after decalcification.
