The coffee system must be descaled
regularly. The appliance will display a
reminder message to descale and will
eventually lock if not descaled.
The display will show "Please descale
the coffee system. Remaining number
of servings: 50". This message will now
appear after each preparation.

Tap OK to acknowledge this
message.
If the counter has elapsed to 0, the
appliance will be locked, and the
display reads: Descaling program
must be carried out.
^ Tap OK to start the descaling cycle
immediately.
Descaling takes about 20 minutes. If
you want to continue at a later point in
time, turn the unit off. The appliance
can only be used again once descaling
is performed.
Only use the enclosed descaling
tablets for descaling. They are
specially developed for the coffee
system to optimize the descaling.
The descaling tablets can be
purchased from Miele.
Other agents may damage the
machine and affect the taste of

descaling agent in solution to
prevent damage to the machine.
Use the supplied cleaning
containers to protect the appliance
front from the descaling agent.
Clean up any descaling spills im-
mediately to avoid damage to the
appliance front.
