Scale removal
The mineral content (hardness) in the water causes, over a period of time, a calcification of the coffee machine. This calcification impairs the appliance in its function and diminishes the quality of the brewed filter coffee.
Enquire at your local waterworks about the hardness level of your mains water.The need for decalcification comes early in hard water areas, somewhat later in soft water areas.
Use a decalcifier designed for household appliances and pay heed to the usage instructions.
1.Switch the coffee machine off and allow it to cool down completely.
2.Place the scale removal product in the water tank.
3.Insert the stipulated volume of water.
4.Place the glass jug on the heating plate.
5.Switch the coffee machine on with the On/Off switch 5.
6.Wait until the brewing process is completed. Switch the coffee machine off and remove the plug from the mains power socket.
7.Carefully rinse the glass jug with mains water. Fill the water tank with mains water. Pay heed to pouring the water slowly into the water tank, so that it can run through both tank openings. Empty it again by carefully tipping the appliance over a sink and allowing the mains water to pour out.
8.To finish, complete two brewing processes with just mains water, as described in the section "Before the first usage".
When completed, you can continue to use the coffee machine.
