3. At the time the ice cube basin is filled and the water supply stops: immediately push the button "Off".
4. The ice cube basin will reset to zero and the descaling agent will be spread through the appliance.
5. Switch the power switch back "On".

6. Repeat this procedure (step 1 till 4) several times with de-scaling agent.

7. After you have made sure that the appliance is totally clean, let the descaling agent pour out of the appliance through the drain plug on the left side of the appliance.

8. Now pour clean water in the water reservoir and repeat step 1 till 4 several times to make sure that there are no scraps of the descaling agent left in the appliance. The smell and taste of the

descaling agent should fully be disappeared. Take every time new clean water for this.
