Descaling
When to descale
- Descale the SENSEO ® coffee machine as described below when
the CALC light goes on (after you have brewed approx. 400 cups of
SENSEO ® coffee or SENSEO ® cappuccino). You can also descale the
SENSEO ® coffee machine more often (at least every 3 months) in the
same way. The descaling procedure takes approx. 40 minutes.
Why to descale
Scale builds up inside the machine during use. It is essential to descale the
SENSEO ® coffee machine when the CALC light goes on, but at least every
three months. Your reasons to descale:
- It prolongs the life of your SENSEO ® coffee machine
- It ensures maximum cup volume
- It ensures maximum coffee temperature
- The machine produces less sound during brewing
- It prevents malfunctioning
If the descaling procedure is not performed correctly, scale residues remain
behind in the machine. This causes scale to build up more quickly and may
cause permanent and irreparable damage to the machine.
use the correct descaling agent
Only citric acid-based descalers are suitable for descaling the SENSEO ®
machine. This type of descaler descales the machine without damaging
it. For the correct amount, see section ‘Descaling procedure’ below. Each
descaling mixture can be used only once. After use, the descaling mixture is
no longer active.
Philips SENSEO ® has developed a special descaler (HD7012, HD7011,
HD7006) for SENSEO ® machines. For more information about this
descaler, visit our website www.philips.com.
