descaling of your appliance in normal use.
Descaling depends on the hardness of the
water, but also on the use cycle. The frequently

thus given by way of indication only.
- Then follow the following method:
• Unscrew the grid from the head of the
appliance and clean it.
• Dissolve 2 dessertspoons of the descaling
product or a sachet of KRUPS descaling
accessory, reference 054, in half a litre of
lukewarm water and pour the whole lot into
the empty water tank.
• Place a container under the brewing head.
Run through about 1/3 of the liquid
immediately, setting the selector to the
position (10).
• Stop the appliance, leaving the
position
(10) engaged and wait for 10 - 15 minutes
to allow the descaler to take effect.
• Next, start the machine again and allow the
rest of the liquid to run through.
•
Then rinse with two water tanks of fresh
water and replace the grid on the head of the
appliance (see paragraph on maintenance).
