Decalcification
Decalcification message
When the machine needs to be decalcified, a corresponding request appears on the display.
The decalcification interval depends on the following factors:
• Water hardness
• Water flow rate
• Use of a water filter
Danger of poisoning from ingesting or inhaling the decalcifier.
Do not drink or inhale the decalcifier or the rinse water output during the decalcification
process.
CAUTION!
Risk of machine
damage!
Household decalcifiers can destroy the coffee machine.
For decalcification, use Schaerer decalcifiers only. Liability cannot be accepted for
damage resulting from the use of other decalcifiers.

When the 1st display decalcification request appears, decalcification must be performed within
a week. The first display request can be overridden during that week.
