Descaling
This appliance is equipped with an auto-
matic descaling indicator. If
calc indicator
lights up, the machine needs to be des-
caled.
Regular descaling
– makes your appliance last longer
– ensures proper function
– prevents excessive steam
– speeds up the brewing process
– saves energy
Descale the machine with a commercial
descaling agent.
● Switch off the machine and allow it to
cool.

12 calc for at least 2 seconds. The des-
caling process starts.
● The program interrupts the process sev-
eral times for a few minutes in order to let
the descaling agent penetrate the depos-
its. The entire descaling process takes
about 30 minutes. When the program is
running, the display
calc will blink.
● When the descaling process is complete,
the display
calc will no longer light up.
Operate the machine twice using clean
water, without coffee. Do not ill the tank

the carafe.
Important: When the brewing process is
complete, wait a moment until all the coffee
has run through the ilter and into the carafe.
Let the machine cool down for ive min
utes before brewing a fresh pot.
Low water indicator J
This coffee machine senses if the water
volume in the water tank is low (less than
approx. 4 cups).
If the water level is low, J lights up and
the machine automatically increases the
brewing time. This ensures that the coffee
retains its ideal lavour.
Coffeemaking tips
Store ground coffee in a cool place; you
can also freeze it.
Once a package of coffee has been
opened, close it tightly to maintain its
aroma.
How the coffee beans are roasted affects
their taste and aroma.
Darker roast = more lavour
Lighter roast = more acidity
