Disposal - Medion Micromaxx MD 15486 Instruction Manual

7.5.2. Descaling
In order to prolong the device's service life and to keep brewing times short, the cof-
fee machine must be regularly descaling. The time interval depends on the hard-
ness of the water and the frequency with which the device is used. The machine
should be descaled at the latest when the brewing process has become significant-
ly longer. We recommend an environmentally friendly descaling process using vine-
gar or citric acid:
 Measure out two cups of vinegar or 2 heaped tablespoons of citric acid crystals
and add this to eight cups of water.
 Add the solution to the water tank, close the lid of the filter holder and place the
jug underneath.
 Allow the solution to run through the coffee machine, if necessary a number of
times.
 Rinse the glass jug and the filter holder thoroughly afterwards.
 Finally, fill the coffee machine with fresh water a number of times and run the
machine.
If you want to use a commercial descaler (chemical product), observe the instruc-
tions provided by the manufacturer of the product.
Do not let the chemical descaler drip onto the housing or the warming plate!
