Descaling procedure

The descaling procedure consists of 2 cycles:
1 a descaling cycle (approx. 35 minutes)
2 a rinsing cycle (approx. 5 minutes)
You cannot descale the machine if the Calc-Clean tool is not placed in
the coffee spout.
1 Descaling cycle
1 Remove the milk container unit from the machine, insert the Calc-
Clean tool into the coffee spout and push down the milk container
lever.
2 Place the 1-cup pod holder q with a used coffee pod in the coffee
machine. Close the lid and make sure it is properly locked.
Note: Always put a used coffee pod in the pod holder when you descale the
machine. This pod serves as a 'filter' to prevent the sieve in the pod holder from
getting clogged with scale residues.
3 Mix 50 grams of citric acid with 1 litre of water in a measuring jug.
Stir until the powder has completely dissolved.
4 Remove the water reservoir and fill it with the descaling mixture.
Then put the water reservoir back onto the coffee machine.
