Decalcifying

lf 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 normally will not need to decaicify.

However, if your coffeemaker takes much longer than normal to brew, the appliance has to be decaicified.

Important: Replace the water filter by the space compensator for any decalcifying procedure. When decalcifying, turn the AromaSelect dial 5 to the symbol.

You can either use a commercially available decalcifying agent which does not affect aluminium, or vinegar essence, available in food stores.

1.Follow the instructions of the manufacturer of the decalcifying agent.

2.Repeat this procedure with a newly prepared decalcifying solution as many times as necessary for reaching the original flow time of approx.

50 - 60 seconds per cup.

3.Allow the maximum amount of fresh cold water to run through at least twice to cleanse the machine.

lf you use vinegar essence, please proceed as follows:

1.Fill the water container 3 to the mark for 3 cups with cold water.

2.Add vinegar essence to the mark for 6 cups.

3.Place the carafe with the closed lid onto the stand 9, close the filter holder 8 (without any type of filter) and switch on the coffeemaker.

4.Allow the decalcifying solution to run through.

5.Repeat this procedure with a newly prepared decalcifying solution as many times as necessary for reaching the original flow time of approx.

50 - 60 seconds per cup.

6.Allow the maximum amount of fresh cold water to run through at least twice to cleanse the machine.
