Descaling the machine

Important! When descaling the appli-
ance, cover delicate surfaces and
natural flooring to prevent damage
from splashes of descaling solution.
Ensure that any splashes of descal-
ing solution are wiped up immedi-
ately.
Lime scale builds up in the coffee sys-
tem through use. How often the appli-
ance needs to be descaled will depend
on the water hardness level in your
area. It should be descaled regularly to
ensure that it functions correctly.
The appliance will guide you through
the descaling process. Various mes-
sages will appear in the display, e.g.
you will be prompted to empty the drip
tray or fill the water reservoir.
The descaling process is required and
takes approx.20minutes.
The coffee system prompts you when it
needs to be descaled. "No. of portions
until appliance needs descaling: No. of
uses until appliance needs descaling: 50

drink is prepared, the coffee system
displays the number of portions remain-
ing until descaling must be carried out.

reaches 0, the appliance will lock out.
Then Descale will appear in the display.

you do not want to descale it at this
time. However, you will be not be able
to make any more drinks until descaling

Preparing the descaling solution
We recommend using Miele descaling
tablets for optimum results.
These have been specially developed
for use with Miele coffee machines and
prevent subsequent damage.
Only use the Miele descaling tablets.
Other types of descaling agents can
damage the appliance and affect the
taste.
Miele descaling tablets are available to
order from Miele or the Miele website.
You will need two descaling tablets.
