Descaling instructions
Depending on the water quality (lime
content) in your area as well as the
frequency of use, all thermal household
appliances using hot water need descaling
(i.e. removal of lime deposits) on a regular
basis to ensure proper functioning.
When the brewing process takes longer than
normal, it is likely that descaling is necessary.
- Mix four cups of water with a
commercially available descaling solution
(follow the manufacturer's information
for the right concentration).
- Pour the mixture into the water
container.
- Let the espresso maker run through 1 or
2 brewing cycles as described in the
section Making espresso, but without
using the filter insert and without putting
in any coffee.
- To cleanse the system after descaling,
operate the appliance a further two times
with clean water only.
- Rinse the screw-in lid, filter holder and
glass carafe in clean water.
●
Do not pour descalers into enamelled
sinks.
Disposal
Do not dispose of old or defective
appliances in domestic garbage;
this should only be done through
public collection points.
