Decalcification
Mineral content in water varies from place to
place. Depending on the mineral content of
the water in your area, calcium deposits or
scale may build up in your machine. Though
scale is non-toxic, it can hinder performance.
De-scaling the machine will help maintain
the heating element and other parts that
come in contact with water.
For optimal performance, de-scale your
machine every 3 to 6 months. It is possible
for calcium to build up faster, making it
necessary to de-scale more often.
