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 decal-
cifier 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 2.
3. Fill the water tank with water up to the 10-cup
marking.
4. Place the glass jug on the keep-warm plate 4.
5. Switch the coffee machine on with the On/Off
switch 5.

Switch the coffee machine off and disconnect
the plug from the mains power socket.
7. Carefully rinse the glass jug with mains water.
Fill the water tank 2 with mains water. Empty it
again, in that you gently tip the appliance over
the sink.
8. To finish, carry out 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.
