DESCAliNg
Why descale
–Limestone forms naturally in your coffee maker. Descaling preserves the coffee maker
and ensures it will last longer and provide quality coffee over time. Limestone can
permanently affect the machine’s performance. Malfunctions associated with scaling
will not be covered by the warranty if the product is returned.
When to descale
–The appliance must be descaled after 70 brewing cycles. If you leave the appliance
plugged into the wall, the appliance will keep track of the number of brewing cycles.
Theindicator (D) will ash on the display to indicate that the appliance must be descaled.
If the appliance must be descaled, use the KRUPS descaling solution
®
or 5.oz of white
vinegar diluted in 17.oz of cold or water at room temperature or 1.5oz of citric acid
diluted in 17.oz until the crystals have completely dissolved.
–However, the descaling frequency depends on the hardness of the water and the number
of BREW cycles. It may be necessary to descale your coffee machine more frequently
if you notice the following signs, even if the indicator (D) does not ash on the display:
longer cycle time or excessive steaming, more noise at the end of the cycle or stopping
mid-cycle this means that your machine needs to be descaled.
–Descaling should be done every other month, depending on the hardness of the water.
How to descale your KRUPS coffee maker
Use the KRUPS descaling solution
®
or 5 . oz of white vinegar diluted in 17 .oz of cold
or water at room temperature or 1.5 oz of citric acid diluted in 17 . oz until the crystals
have completely dissolved.
Pour the solution into the water reservoir (15) (without coffee).
Press Grind off button (3).
Please wait until the end of the cycle.
To rinse the machine, run 2 full 10 cups cycles with water but without coffee.
Repeat the operation if needed.
When the descaling cycle is nished, press 2-10 cups button (3) as well as the coffee
strength selector (7) to reset the descaling function. The descaling indicator (D) will not
light up anymore.
The warranty does not cover coffee makers that do not work, or do so poorly, due
to lack of descaling.
NEVER PUT GROUND COFFEE IN THE WHOLE BEAN
COFFEE CONTAINER
Use of coffee beans that are oily, caramelized or avored is not recommended for this
machine. This type of bean may damage the machine.
