Descaling the appliance
The coffee system must be descaled regularly. The appliance will display a reminder message to descale and will eventually lock if not descaled.
The display will show "Please descale the coffee system. Remaining number of servings: 50". This message will now appear after each preparation.
Tap OK to acknowledge this message.
If the counter has elapsed to 0, the appliance will be locked, and the display reads: Please descale.
Tap OK to start the descaling cycle immediately.
Descaling takes about 20 minutes. If you want to continue at a later point in time, turn the unit off. The appliance can only be used again once descaling is performed.
The machine will automatically switch to water container operation for the descaling program.
Only use the enclosed descaling tablets for descaling. They are specially developed for the coffee system to optimize the descaling. The descaling tablets can be purchased from Miele.
Other agents may damage the machine and affect the taste of coffee and hot water.
The machine could also be damaged.
Use the correct proportion of descaling agent in solution to prevent damage to the machine.
Use the supplied cleaning containers to protect the appliance front from the descaling agent. Clean up any descaling spills immediately to avoid damage to the appliance front.
Thoroughly clean the water tank and the drip tray of descaling residues.
