Regularly de-scale your coffee machine. The de-scaling intervals depend on the hardness of the mains water and the frequency
at which the coffee machine is being used. We recommend de-scaling the coffee machine every 1-2 months. Due to scaling,
the heating element can become obstructed. This causes overheating, as a result of which the coffee machine is switched off
automatically as a safety precaution and will no longer function. The coffee machine will have to be repaired. You can de-scale
the coffee machine with a special de-scaling agent for coffee machines or with kitchen grade vinegar.
If you use a special de-scaling agent for coffee machines, you must observe the instructions on the packaging of this agent.
When using kitchen grade vinegar, proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the appliance by pressing the on/off button (
2. Fill the water reservoir with clean, cold water and cold kitchen grade vinegar up to the MAX mark. The water and kitchen
grade vinegar ratio should be 4:1.

9. Press the coffee button and allow the appliance to run until the water reservoir is empty. The de-scaling process has been
completed. Empty the cup and the removable leak tray to remove any water.
10. After de-scaling, allow a full reservoir of cold water to flow through the appliance at least 3 times, to remove all de-scaling
liquid and vinegar residues and thus prevent a sour taste in the coffee. Repeat all above-mentioned steps, only now do not
add kitchen grade vinegar to the water. It is not necessary to wait 15 minutes at point 7.
Attention! If the coffee machine has not been used for some time, e.g. due to vacation, it is recommended to remove and clean
all separate components. Then place the cleaned separate components back on their place and allow the coffee machine to
make one run with clean water. In this way you will prevent a possible foreign taste.
