If dispensing is slower than
usual, or if beverage is cooler
than usual, descale.
Do not put powder directly
on the machine.
Descaling is critical to the long life of the product. In areas with
known high mineral content it's important to descale about once
per month. Otherwise every 34 months is adequate.
Do not use vinegar.
