General care and cleaning

is disconnected from the power supply
and has cooled down completely.
●
To avoid the risk of electric shock, do
not clean the appliance with water and
do not immerse it in water.
●
Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
- The exterior housing may be wiped
clean with a damp cloth and a mild
detergent.
- The pad holder may be cleaned with hot
soapy water. Thoroughly rinse and dry
afterwards.

emptied in good time. The drip tray,
drainer and pad holder may be cleaned
with hot soapy water or in a dish-

Descaling
Depending on the water quality (the lime
content) in your area as well as frequency of
use, all household appliances using hot
water need descaling (i.e. the removal of
lime deposits) on a regular basis to ensure
proper functioning. The need for descaling
will be indicated by both indicator lights
flashing at the end of a brewing cycle.
Any commercially available descaling agent
suitable for coffee makers may be used for
this purpose. Prepare around 700 ml of
descaling solution in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions. Do not use
vinegar.
- Fill the water container up to its
maximum-level mark with the descaling
solution.
- Place a suitable container, with a
minimum capacity of 700 ml, below the
coffee outlet.
- Keep the Start button pressed for 3-5
seconds. The pump is activated and the
green and red indicator lights come on.
- The main descaling process takes 15-20
minutes. Once it is finished, the green
indicator light starts flashing slowly; fill
the water container with clean, cold
water .
- Press the Start button. The pump is
activated again and the green and red
indicator lights come on.
- Once the descaling process is complete,
both indicator lights go out; the coffee
maker is now ready for use again.
●
Do not pour descalers down enamelled
sinks.
●
Descaling can be stopped any time by
pressing the Start button.
