CARING FOR YOUR BREWER
TIME TO DESCALE THE BREWER
Depending on the mineral content of your water, calcium deposits or scale may build
up in your brewer, this is why we recommend using bottled or filtered water. Scale is non-
toxic but if left unattended can hinder brewer performance. Regularly descaling your brewer
every three to six months helps maintain the heating element, and other internal parts that
come in contact with water. Calcium deposits may build up faster, making it necessary to
descale more often.
You should promptly descale when the Touch Display indicates "Time to descale the brewer!"
However, even if this is not indicated, you should continue to descale your brewer every three
to six months.
