Descaling the Coffee Maker
Calcium deposits (scale) from water will
build up in the coffee maker heat pump
over time and impair brewing efficiency
and coffee quality. Descaling should be
done to preserve the performance and
life of your coffee maker.
The coffee maker can be descaled using a
packaged descaling agent or vinegar. Always
mix the descaling solution using cool water.
• When using a descaling agent, follow
the directions on the package for the
recommended amounts of descaling
agent and water to use.
• If only a portion of the water added
to the coffee maker actually brews:
The coffee maker requires immediate
descaling. Please refer to "Descaling the
Coffee Maker" in the "Coffee Maker
Care" section.

a solution consisting of ½ vinegar and

vinegar mixture. Press the ON button
to start the brewing cycle.
3. Rinse the coffee maker by running
it through 2 brewing cycles using a full
water tank of fresh, cool water each time.

the dishwasher.
