Descaling

Warning. When descaling the machine, cover delicate surfaces and natural flooring or place a tea towel over the waste container to prevent damage from splashes of descaling solution.

Limescale builds up in the coffee machine during use. How often, will depend on the hardness of the local water supply. Limescale must be removed regularly.

The machine will guide you through the descaling procedure. Various instructions will appear in the display, e.g. you will be prompted to empty the drip tray, fill the water container, etc.

Descaling must be carried out. The programme takes approx. 12 minutes.

During the descaling programme, water containing descaling agent will run out of the central spout and steam valve. This is followed by an activation period before a little more descaling agent is dispensed.

The coffee machine will remind you when the descaling programme needs to be carried out. The following message will appear in the display: "No. of uses until descaling: 50". The remaining number of drinks that can be made before descaling will now show in the display after each drink is made.

^Confirm the message by touching the OK sensor.

When 0 is reached, the coffee machine will lock out. "Start descaling?" will appear in the display.

You can switch the coffee machine off if you do not want to run the descaling programme at this time. However, you will not be able to make any more drinks until the descaling programme has been carried out.

For descaling you will need:

–the red descaling funnel and

–Miele descaling tablets.
