Cleaning

Never immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid, nor rinse it under the tap.
1 Unplug the appliance.
2 Clean the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.
3 Remove the filter holder.
4 Clean the filter holder, the jug and the lid of the jug in hot water with some washing-up liquid
or in the dishwasher.
5 After cleaning, rinse the jug with fresh hot water.

Descaling

Regular descaling prolongs the life of the appliance and guarantees optimal brewing results for a
long time.
In case of normal use (two full jugs of coffee every day), descale the appliance:
- 2 or 3 times a year if you use soft water (up to 18dH);
- 4 or 5 times a year if you use hard water (over 18dH).
Contact your local water board for information about the water hardness in your area.
1 Fill the water tank with white vinegar (4% acetic acid). Do not put a filter and ground coffee
in the filter holder.
Note: You can also use an appropriate liquid descaler. In this case, follow the instructions on the package
of the descaler.
2 Let the appliance complete two brewing cycles (see chapter 'Using the appliance').
3 Let the appliance complete two more brewing cycles with fresh cold water to remove any
vinegar/descaler and scale residues.
4 Clean the jug and the filter holder (see chapter 'Cleaning').

replacement

You can order a new jug from your local Philips dealer or a Philips service centre under type
number HD7943.

Environment

- Do not throw away the appliance with the normal household waste at the end of its life, but
hand it in at an official collection point for recycling. By doing this, you help to preserve the
environment (Fig. 12).
