The Descaling Programme - Krups EA 82 Series Use And Maintenance

KRUPS Espresseria Automatic Premium

5.3 The descaling programme

A message on the screen will indicate
when a descaling programme needs to
be run for the appliance. The frequency
of this programme depends on the qua-
lity of the water used, the harder the
water, the more often the appliance has
to be descaled.
To run the descaling programme, you will
need a recipient with a capacity of at
least 0.6 litres that may be placed under-
neath the coffee tube and the steam noz-
zle, and a KRUPS descaling sachet
(F 054) (40 g).
The automatic descaling programme has
3 phases: one descaling cycle and two
rinsing cycles. The programme lasts ap-
proximately 22 minutes.
Running the descaling programme
If you use the Krups Aqua Filter System
F088 filter cartridge, remove it before the
!
descaling operation and fill the water tank up
to the Calc line (0.5 l) with warm water.
To run the descaling programme, select the
"Start" option and validate with the OK but-
ton. Then follow the instructions on the
screen.
Place a recipient with a capacity of at least
0.6 litres underneath the coffee tube and
the steam nozzle.
