Never use vinegar with an acetic acid content of 8% or more, natural vinegar, powder descalers

or tablet descalers to descale the appliance, as this may cause damage.

Put a paper filter or the permanent filter in the filter holder to collect the scale.

Switch on the appliance and let it complete two brewing cycles. Let the appliance cool down

for about 3 minutes between the brewing cycles.

Note: You can reuse the vinegar of the first cycle for the second cycle.
Note: We advise you to put a new paper filter in the filter holder or to rinse the permanent filter

thoroughly after the first brewing cycle.

Fill the water tank with fresh cold water and remove the paper filter or the permanent filter.

Let the appliance complete two brewing cycles with fresh cold water to remove all vinegar

or descaler residues. Let the appliance cool down for about 3 minutes between the brewing

cycles.

Note: Do not reuse water that comes out of the appliance for the next brewing cycle. Always use fresh

water.
Note: If necessary, repeat step 5 until the water that comes out of the appliance no longer tastes or
