• In case of heavy soiling, place a dishwasher tablet in the thermal jug and add hot water.

• Leave the mixture for several hours (e.g. overnight) to take e󰀨ect. English12

• Empty the thermal jug and then rinse it out several times with clear water. De-scaling De-scale your co󰀨ee machine regularly. Regular de-scaling saves energy. The frequency with which you need to de-scale depends on the hardness of the water in your local area. The following signs indicate that your co󰀨ee machine needs to be de-scaled: – The appliance switches o󰀨 automatically, even though there is still some water in the water tank (3) (automatic lime- scale detection feature). – There is visible lime-scale build-up in the water tank and in the riser tube (4) – The brewing process is notice- ably longer. – The brewing process is noisier than usual. – A signicant amount of steam escapes during the brewing process. To de-scale the appliance, follow the steps below:

• Insert an empty paper lter into the lter holder (14) to catch the limescale.

• Mix 1.1 litres of de-scaling solution following the manufac- turer's instructions (if using vine- gar or lemon essence, mix 1 part essence and 2 parts water).

• Fill the water tank with de-scaling solution up to the “max” level shown on the water level indicator (5).

• Switch the appliance on using the power switch (6).

• Allow approx. two cupfuls to run through the appliance before switching it o󰀨.

• Leave the de-scaling solution to take e󰀨ect for 20 to 30 minutes.

• Switch the appliance on again and allow the remaining de- scaling solution to run through it. Note: The appliance may switch o automatically, even though there is still some de-scaling solution in the water tank. If this happens, leave the solution to take eect again and then switch the appli- ance back on.

• Rinse twice with fresh water (see “Cleaning the appliance” under “Before using the appliance for the rst time”).

• Repeat the de-scaling process if necessary. STORAGE Keep the appliance out of the reach of children.
