After you have used the appliance for a while,
limescale deposits will build up inside it. To
ensure that your appliance works perfectly
and has a long life, you need to descale it on a
regular basis.
The Descale program removes the limescale
deposits. You should run the program every
four weeks or when the red lamp next to the
"Descaling" button lights up. The program
takes approximately 8 minutes and should not
be interrupted.
Use Melitta® Anti Calc liquid descaling agent
for filter coffee machines.
Caution! Descaling agent causes eye irri-
tation. If it accidentally comes into contact
with your eyes, you should rinse them with
clear water for several minutes. Consult a
doctor if symptoms persist.

2. Push the filter into the appliance. The filter
must click in audibly.

the water tank. Follow the instructions on
the packaging of the descaling agent.

filter.
