Descaling the steam injection
system 
When to run the descaling process
The frequency of descaling will depend
on the water hardness level in your
area.
The descaling process can be run at
any time.
However, to ensure that the oven
functions correctly you will be
automatically prompted to run the
descaling process after a certain
number of programmes.
The oven will let you know when only
10 programmes can be run before you
have to run the descaling process. The
programmes will count down to 0 in the
display. You will then not be able to run
any function or Automatic programme
using moisture. They cannot be used
until descaling has been carried out.
All other functions and Automatic
programmes without moisture can still
be used.
