Information
If the cleaning programme has been
interrupted, e.g. because you uninten-
tionally switched o the appliance, you
must switch the appliance on again and
follow the instructions from step 10. The
appliance is then ready for operation, even
if it has not been completely cleaned.
For complete cleaning, you must run the
cleaning programme from the beginning.
7.5 Running the descaling
programme
The descaling programme is used to
remove limescale deposits in the interior
of the appliance with fully automatic
coee maker descaling agents.
To avoid damage to the appliance, we
recommend running the descaling pro-
gramme every 3 months or as requested
by the appliance, unless you regularly use
a water lter.
The Descaling display light
requests you to descale the appliance.
