When to descale
n The frequency of descaling depends on the water hardness and the number of coffee cycles. When the
following signs are encountered: cycle time lengthened, high evaporation, high level of noise at the end
of cycle, stop during the cycle, it signifies that your machine is calcified.
The descaling of the coffee maker must be between 20 and 30 cycles or once a month depending on
the water hardness.
How to descale your KRUPS coffee maker
n Use the KRUPS® descaling solution diluted in 0.5l of water or 250 ml of commercially available white
vinegar in half-litre of water.
n Pour the solution into the water tank (without coffee).
n Start the cycle (without coffee). After 2 min, manually stop the cycle. Leave it still for an hour. Restart the
coffee to complete the cycle.
n To rinse the machine, run 2 cycles with water but no coffee.
n Repeat the operation if necessary.
n The guarantee does not cover coffee makers which are not working or which are working
poorly due to failure to descale them.
