area from the responsible waterworks or the commu-

Decalcifier

The automatic decalcification program of your auto-
matic coffee pad appliance is optimized to be used
for a portion (125 ml) of durgol

tity when decalcifying the appliance. A complete
decalcification and saving the materials is only gua-
ranteed during the brief decalcification period.

durgol swiss espresso
ped for automatic coffee and espresso machines. It
is used undiluted, is highly effective and guarantees a
reliable decalcification and therefore a long service
life of the appliance.
You may obtain it where you bought the appliance;
directly from a select dealer or you can order it direct-
ly from petra electric.
Never use vinegar or vinegar concentrate since
material of the appliance might be damaged.
Decalcification with citric acid is too slow. That is
why a proer decalcification cannot be guaranteed.
