DECALCIFYING YOUR 3 IN 1 COFFEE CENTER - GENERAL

•Over time mineral deposits build up on internal parts of the coffeemaker and effect the operation of the appliance causing the need for decalcification. The frequency of decalcification depends on the hardness of your water and how often the unit is used. Indications that decalcifying is necessary are:

oIncreased noise during production o Excessive steaming

o Longer brewing times

oThe pumping action stops before all of the water has been pumped from the water reservoir

•If usage is regular, decalcifying should be carried out as follows:

oWith soft water, decalcify once per year

oWith medium water, decalcify every three (3) months o With hard water, decalcify monthly

•We recommend the use of vinegar for decalcifying.
