Limescale builds up in the coffee

appliance needs to be descaled will
depend on the water hardness level in
your area. Limescale must be removed
regularly.

messages will appear in the display,
e.g. you will be prompted to empty the
drip tray or fill the water container.
Descaling must be carried out. The
process takes approx. 35 minutes.
The coffee machine will give you plenty
of warning when it needs to be
descaled. As of this point, the display
will indicate how many more drinks can
be made before descaling becomes
absolutely essential. This number is
indicated whenever a drink is made.

reaches 0, the coffee machine will lock

Preparing the descaling solution
For optimum descaling results, we
recommend using the Miele descaling
tablets provided.
The descaling tablets have been
specially developed for Miele coffee
machines.
Other descalers, which contain other
acids besides citric acid and/or other
undesirable substances, such as
chlorides for example, can cause
damage to the product. Moreover,
the descaling result required cannot
be guaranteed if the descaling
solution was not of the appropriate
concentration.
Miele descaling tablets are available to
order via the Miele webshop, from the
Miele Customer Service Department
(see the end of this booklet for contact
details) or from your Miele dealer.
