CLEANING
How to descale your coffee maker
Use descaling solution or 0.5L of white vinegar diluted in 0.5L of cold or water at room
temperature. Fig. 17.
Pour the solution into the water tank (without coffee in the lter). Fig. 18.
Press the ON/OFF button (k) to start the descaling cycle. Fig. 19.
Wait until the end of the cycle.
To rinse the machine, run 2 full 10 cups cycles with water but without coffee.
Repeat if necessary.
The guarantee does not cover coffee makers that do not work, or do so poorly, due
to lack of descaling.
PROBLEM SOLUTION
The coffee does not brew
or the appliance does not
turn on.
Make sure the appliance is well connected to a working
outlet and that it is in the «ON» position.
The water tank is empty.
There is a power outage.
Unplug the machine, then plug it back in.
The clock should be reprogrammed after a power outage.
The appliance seems to
leak.
Make sure the water tank has not been lled beyond the
maximum limit.
Make sure the water tank is not damaged.
Brewing takes a long time. It may be time to descale the appliance.
Several minerals can accumulate in the coffee
maker’s circuitry. Regular descaling of the machine is
recommended. This may need to be done more often
depending on the hardness of your water. For more
information, please consult the «Descaling» section.
CAUTION: do not take the appliance apart.
The lter holder overows
or the coffee ows too
slowly.
The coffee maker needs cleaning.
There is too much coffee. We recommend using one
measuring spoon or one soup spoon of ground coffee
per cup.
The ground coffee is too ne (e.g., ground coffee for
espresso won’t work in a drip coffee maker).
There is ground coffee lodged between the paper lter
and the lter holder.
The paper lter is not open properly or is not well placed.
Rinse the lter holder before inserting the paper lter so
it will adhere to the damp walls of the lter basket.
Make sure you have not inserted a paper lter at the
same time as the permanent lter.
There is more than one paper lter in the lter holder.
Make sure the lter holder is pushed down all the way.
