3 Put the water reservoir back onto the coffee machine.
4 Place the 1-cup pod holder q with a used coffee pod in it in the
coffee machine. Close the lid and make sure it is properly locked.
It is not possible to descale the machine when the lid is not properly
closed and the lid lever is not locked. In this case, the indicator
light flashes intermittently.
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 or hole in the pod
holder from getting clogged with scale residue.
5 Put a bowl with a capacity of at least 1500ml under the spout to
collect the descaling mixture.
6 Press the 1-cup button q and the 2-cup button qq briefly at the
same time to start the descaling cycle.
The CALC light and the light ring around the on/off button starts
,
flashing to indicate that the descaling cycle has started.
Hot water comes out of the coffee spout in intervals. During the
,
descaling cycle, the machine stops descaling 3 to 4 times to let the
descaler mixture act and to heat up.
Let the machine complete the entire descaling cycle, which takes 4 to 5
minutes. Do not switch off the machine during the descaling cycle!
When all the water in the water reservoir has been used up, the
,
descaling cycle is finished. The light ring around the on/off button
starts to flash rapidly.
7 Repeat the descaling procedure (steps 2 to 6) once. Replace the used
pod with another used pod to filter out the scale residue.
