Your TASSIMO machine must be descaled
regularly, because heating water creates
limescale which accumulates in the machine
over time. When descaling is needed, the
machine indicates this by activating the
"Descale required"
'
this LED lights up, you should descale
your machine immediately. Not doing so
may result in the machine not functioning
properly and beverage quality deteriorating.
If you have not descaled the machine after
another 20 T DISCs, the indicator starts to
blink.
