Before using for the rst time Beforemakingcoffeeforthersttime, let the appliance go through two or threeltrationcyclesusingtheindicated maximum amount of cold water, but without using ground coffee. This should also be done if the appliance has not been used for an extended period of time, and after descaling. General information ∙ A measuring scale on the water container and on the glass carafe facilitatesllingthecontainerwiththe correct amount of clean water.

Descaling ∙ 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 warrant proper functioning. ∙ Any warranty claim will be null and void if the appliance malfunctions because of insufcient descaling. ∙ A lengthening of the brewing time,14 104 x 142 mm increased noise during brewing or residual water remaining in the container indicate that descaling has become necessary. ∙ An excessive build-up of lime deposits isverydifculttoremove,evenwhen strong descaling agents are used. It may also cause the brewing system to leak. We therefore strongly recommend descaling the appliance after each thirty to forty brewing cycles. For descaling, a vinegar solution may be used as follows: ∙ Mix 80 ml of vinegar essence with the indicated maximum amount of cold water. ∙ Pour the descaling solution into the watercontainer,insertapaperlter intothelterholderwithout adding any ground coffee as described in section Making coffee, and let the appliancerunthroughoneltration cycle.
