Descaling and the ‘Clean’ function
ß Always use the charcoal water lters provided and replace on a regular basis (i.e. every 90 days or 90
uses)
ß It is strongly recommended that you descale the appliance from time to time. The frequency depends
upon the hardness of your tap water an how often you use the appliance. The ashing ‘Clean’ light will
indicate when you should clean your coffeemaker.
If the ‘Clean’ light begins to ash when the coffeemaker is turned on, it is telling you that the calcium
build-up is interfering with the functioning of your coffeemaker and the avour of your coffee.
To descale
ß Fill the water reservoir completely with a mixture of 1/3 white vinegar and 2/3 water and switch the
appliance on. Press the ‘Clean’ button. When the self clean light glows, turn the coffeemaker on by
pressing the on/off button. The clean light will shine steadily. The coffeemaker is now in clean mode.
One cycle should be suf cient to descale the appliance.
ß Once the cycle has been completed and 5 beeps sound, switch the appliance off. Turn the appliance back
on to see if the ‘Clean’ light continues to ash. If it does, turn it to ‘Off’ and then repeat the cleaning
procedure with a fresh solution of vinegar and water. If the clean light no longer ashes, turn the coffee-
maker to ‘Off’ and then run one cycle of fresh cold water throught the unit before using the unit again to
brew coffee.
Notes on the Cleaning Function
Pressing the ‘Clean’ button cancels all other settings. If it is pressed accidentally, press it again to return
the coffeemaker to all its previous settings. Pressing ‘On/Off’ will also exit the ‘Clean’ mode and turn the
coffeemaker off.
