cartridge (reference: F088 which can be ordered via our web site www.krups.co.uk) and that you
descale the appliance at regular intervals.

Before using for the first time, after a prolonged period of inactivity or after desca-
ling, the appliance must be cleaned as described in paragraph 1: "USING".
