Descaling the coffee system
The coffee system must be descaled regularly. The time period depends on the water hardness set. The appliance will display a reminder message and will eventually lock if not descaled.
Once the system is at the point where only 50 drinks can be prepared before descaling must be performed, the display will show the message: No. of portions until descaling: 50.
This message will appear and countdown after each drink until descaling needs to be completed.
^Select OK to acknowledge the message.
Once the counter reaches 0 the appliance can only be used again once descaling is performed, the display reads "Descale - Start".
Descale | Start |

^Select OK.
To descale the machine, you will need descaling tablets and the colored descaling funnel.
Only use the enclosed descaling tablets for descaling. The descaling tablets are specially designed for this coffee system. Descaling tablets can be purchased from Miele. Other agents may damage the machine and affect the taste of the coffee and hot water.
Be sure that the correct mixture of descaling agent and water are used to prevent damage to the machine.
To prevent damage to the exterior wipe up any descaling solution spills immediately!
Thoroughly clean the water tank and the drip tray of descaling residue.
