DECALCIFICATION AND CLEANING
•Before cleaning, turn off the appliance, unplug it and let it cool down.
•The filter, filter holder, carafe and carafe lid can be cleaned in a solution of warm water and mild liquid soap.
•The coffee maker can be cleaned using a damp cloth. Never immerse the body of your coffee maker in water or any other liquid. Never use abrasive cleaning products or solvents.
•Decalcifying the coffee maker prolongs its life span. For decalcification only use products especially made for the decalcification of coffee makers.
•Never use a dishwasher to clean the jug. Just clean it in warm soapy water
If the water in your region is hard, decalcify your coffee maker every
7 to 10 uses as follows:
•Pour 3 cups of white vinegar or decalcifying solution (special for coffee maker) into the water tank and fill to the maximum level with water.
•Place the carafe on the warming plate.
•Plug in the coffee maker and press the power button.
•When the water tank has emptied, switch off the coffee maker and empty the carafe.
•Rinse the coffee maker two or three times by repeating the above process using cold water only, or as indicated by the manufacturer of the decalcifying solution.
PRACTICAL HINTS
When you notice that the coffee making process is longer than it should be, it is probably time to decalcify the appliance. Do not wait until the situation gets worse. The decalcifying frequency depends on the amount of lime in the water and therefore can be different from family to family. Therefore it is important to pay attention to this. A good maintenance of your appliance will prolong its lifespan. Guarantee claims will not be accepted for the replacement of a heating element full of scale.
