The coffee system must be descaled
regularly. The time period depends on
the water hardness set. The appliance
will display a reminder message and
will eventually lock if not descaled.
Once the system is at the point where
only 50 drinks can be prepared before
descaling must be performed, the
display will show "50 no. of uses until
descaling has to be done". This
message will appear and countdown
after each drink. When the count is to
zero, the coffee system will lock and the
left display will show "Descale" k . The
right display will show "confirm to start".
The appliance can only be used again
once descaling is performed.
Only use the enclosed descaling
tablets for descaling. The descaling
tablets are specially designed for
this coffee system. The descaling
tablets can be purchased from your
local Miele dealer or Miele.
Other agents may damage the
machine and affect the taste of
coffee and hot water.
Be sure that the correct mixture of
descaling agent and water are used
to prevent damage to the machine.
To prevent damage to the exterior
wipe up any descaling solution
spills immediately!
Thoroughly clean the water tank
and the drip tray of descaling
residue.
