Descaling
• Turn the appliance off before descaling.
• Remove the water filter holder and discard the filter.
• We recommend that you use KRUPS descaling solution (ref: F054).
• Pour the mixture into the tank (F) and place the smaller pod holders in the coffee machine.
(Do not use the specialty pod holders for descaling.)
• Place a container that can hold up to 40 ounces on the drip tray.
• Press the brew button for at least 5 seconds.
The indicator light will begin to blink slowly. The solution will run through the system and
disperse intermittently.
The cycle automatically stops when the tank is empty. The indicator light goes out.
After descaling rinse your coffee machine by running two brew cycles on the 2 cup 9 oz setting.
• Rinse the water tank before making coffee.
Never put the descaling agent directly into the tank, mix the solution first.
If used twice daily, descale your coffee machine every 3 months.
If your coffee machine is equipped with Water Filtration you generally only need to
descale your appliance every 4 to 5 months.
The absence of the water filter does not prevent the coffee machine from working.
If you have not used your coffee machine for over a month, we advise you to rinse the “Duo
Filter” under running water and to thoroughly clean the water tank.
It is recommended not to leave the water filter in place for over 5 months.
Caution: Do not leave the descaling solution within the reach of children.
The guarantee excludes coffee machines that are not working properly because they
have not been descaled.
