Descaling
Regular descaling prolongs the life of the appliance and guarantees optimal brewing results for a
long time. In case of normal use (two full jugs of coffee every day), descale the appliance:
- 2 or 3 times a year if you use soft water (up to 18dH).
- 4 or 5 times a year if you use hard water (over 18dH).
You can use white vinegar with 4% acetic acid. You can also use an appropriate liquid descaler.
In this case, follow the instructions on the package of the descaler.
Do not use a descaling powder.

Note: Use of the CALC position is preferred to get optimal descaling results. You can also descale without
setting the AromaSelect knob to the CALC position.
