Scale forms while the machine is in use; it is necessary
to remove scale every 3-4 months of use or whenever
you observe a decreased flow of water.
If you wish to descale the machine yourself,
you may use any commercially available

machines.
Warning! Never use vinegar as a descaling
agent.
Mix the descaling agent with water as directed on
the package and pour the solution into the water

clockwise to cut off flow.
During each interval, allow the descaling agent

When all of the descaling agent has been used up,
rinse out the water container and fill it with fresh
water.
