Descaling (fig. A, B, C, K, L & M)
The appliance must be descaled regularly.
The appliance has an automatic descaling
indicator which informs the user when
descaling is required.
•
If the descaling indicator (5) flashes, the
appliance must be descaled. It is still possible
to brew coffee and prepare hot water, but
frothing milk for cappuccino, latte macchiato
or café au lait is no longer possible.
•
If the descaling indicator (5) lights continuously,
the descaling program is running.
The automatic descaling program of the appliance
is optimised to be used for 125 ml of durgol®
swiss espresso®. The product is used undiluted,
is highly effective and guarantees a reliable
descaling and therefore a long operational life of
the appliance. The descaling agent is available
from our service station.
Before you proceed, we need you to pay attention
to the following notes:
-
Be careful when descaling the appliance to
prevent damage to furniture or clothing.
Place an empty pot (at least 1.8 l) under the
coffee dispenser (10), the hot water
dispenser (11) and the milk froth dispenser
(12) in such a way as to prevent splashes.
Before you proceed, we would like you to focus
your attention on the following notes:
-
Only use durgol® swiss espresso® in the
specified quantity to descale the appliance.
-
Do not use vinegar or vinegar concentrate
to descale the appliance.
-
Do not use citric acid to descale the appliance.
