fi ltration cycles using the indicated maximum
amount of cold water, but without using
ground coffee. This should also be done
if the appliance has not been used for an
extended period of time, and after descaling.
General information
∙ A measuring scale on the water container
and on the glass carafe facilitates fi lling
the container with the correct amount of
clean water. With a dual-scale, the left
scale is used for regular-sized cups of
approx.125 ml, while the right scale is
used for smaller cups. Make sure that the
indicated maximum amount of water is
not exceeded.

are required, switch off the coffee maker
after each cycle and let the appliance cool
down for approx. 5 minutes.
