There is a gauge for 2-10 large or 4-15
small cups on the water tank.

holder (Figure 1/A).

ter holder. Please fold the perforated
edges before doing this.

so that the marking on the lid is alig-
ned over the spout (Figure 7/a).

Descaling - making your coffee
maker last longer
As a precautionary measure, we recom-
mend descaling every three months.
Only use an environmentally friendly
descaler and follow the instructions on
the packet. Please do not use a descaler
with a formic base, or any descaler in
powder form.
1
Fill the water tank with water and only
then add the descaler.
Not vice versa!
0 Place thermal jug (Figure 1/C) with
closed lid (Figure 7/b) in the appliance.
0 Allow the descaler to act for about 15
minutes, then switch the appliance on.
Switch it off when the descaler solu-
tion has finished flowing through.
3
If necessary repeat the descaling
process.
0 Following this, allow the appliance to
run at least twice with fresh water.
0 Thoroughly rinse the water tank, ther-
mal jug, lid and filter holder under
running water, activate the filter valve
repeatedly during the rinsing process.
Thermal jug
You can purchase a new thermal jug
from your sales dealer or the service
centre specifying the model of your
coffee maker, see rating plate
(figure 1/J).
