In case of normal use (two full jugs of coffee every day), descale the appliance: -- 2 or 3 times a year if you use soft water (up to 18dH); -- 4 or 5 times a year if you use hard water (over 18dH). You can use white vinegar with 4% acetic acid or an appropriate liquid descaler. If you use a liquid descaler, follow the instructions on the package. € 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. 1 Fill the water tank up to the maximum level with white vinegar (4% acetic acid). 2 Put a paper filter or the permanent filter in the filter holder to collect the scale. 3 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. 4 Fill the water tank with fresh cold water and remove the paper filter or the permanent filter. 5 Let the appliance complete two brewing cycles with fresh cold water to remove all vinegar or descaler residues.
