Before you clean the coffee machine you must remove
the plug from the mains power socket.
Attention!
Never submerse the coffee machine in water or other
fluids.
Risk of Burns!
Always wait until the coffee machine has cooled
down before cleaning it.
• Do not use household detergents or sharp/pointed
objects to remove soiling. These could damage
the appliance.
• Wipe the housing of the coffee machine and the
glass carafe with a soft cloth lightly moistened
with a soapy solution.
• After every brewing process remove the filter bag
from the filter holder 2.
• Remove the filter and rinse the filter holder 2
and the glass carafe q under running water.
• In cases of stubborn soiling, clean the filter
holder 2, measuring spoon w and the glass
carafe q in a mild dishwashing solution.
Rinse them off with clear water.
If you do not intend to use the coffee machine for
an extended period, stow the power cable in the
cable shaft at the rear of the coffee machine and
insert the power plug into the designated holes on
the cable shaft.
Removing scale
Remove scale from the coffee machine at regular
intervals.
The required descaling intervals can, subject to water
hardness, be very variable. Scale removal is already
necessary after ca. 30 brewing processes with hard
water, after ca. 60 brewing processes with soft water.
Your local water supplier will inform you about the
water hardness level in your locality.
Use only scale removal products that are suitable
for coffee makers and pay heed to the instructions
for use.
The procedure for scale removal is:
1. Place the scale removal product in the water
tank 3.
2. Insert the amount of water detailed in the usage
instructions for the descaler (max. 12 cups).
3. Press the button ON/AUTO/OFF 7 to start the
brewing process. The integrated red indicator
lamp glows.
4. Wait until the water for approx. 2 cups has passed
through and then stop the brewing process by
pressing twice on the button ON/AUTO/OFF 7.
The integrated blue indicator lamp glows con-
stantly and goes out after approx. 15 seconds.
5. Allow the descaling medium to stand for 15 minutes.
6. Repeat the steps 3 to 5 three times.
7. Then restart the brewing process and wait until
all of the solution has passed through.
8. Rinse the coffee machine through 3 times with
fresh water. All of the descaling medium residues
will then be removed and you can once again
use the coffee machine.
