Automatic descaling
86
Risk of damage from splashes from
the descaling solution.
Sensitive surfaces and/or natural
floors can suffer damage.
Wipe up any spillages of descaling
solution.
When handling a cartridge which has
already been filled with water, ensure
that the descaling solution does not
come into contact with sensitive
surfaces.
The coffee machine has an automatic
maintenance program for descaling the
machine. For automatic descaling, a
Miele Descaling Cartridge needs to be
installed at the back of the coffee
machine. The coffee machine will
automatically determine the days when
to carry out automatic descaling based
on the usage pattern. Automatic
descaling takes approx.4hours,
including the activation phase.
You can set the time for daily descaling
to start using the Descaling timer.
Water is mixed with the descaling agent
to create a solution for automatic
descaling. This descaling solution is
then pumped through the pipework of
the coffee machine. After the activation
phase the solution is then rinsed out of
the pipework and the machine can then
be used as normal for making drinks.
During automatic descaling you will
hear pumping and rinsing noises at
frequent intervals even though the
appliance is switched off and the
display is dark.
If you do not make any drinks,
automatic descaling will not be started.
To ensure the longevity of
components and an environment that
is consistently free of limescale, the
coffee machine needs to be manually
descaled from time to time. The
intervals are determined by your
usage behavior and the water
hardness level of your area. If you
make a lot of coffees with milk, for
example, you will need to descale the
coffee machine more frequently with
the descaling tablets.
What you need to note before
and during automatic
descaling:
The coffee machine must be ready to
use and the following conditions must
be met:
- A descaling cartridge which is ready
to use is installed.
- The coffee machine is connected to
the power supply. The coffee
machine must not be disconnected
from the power supply during
automatic descaling.
- The drip tray, brew unit, and main
dispenser are inserted.
- The water container is inserted and is
filled with water at least up to the
descaling symbol.
- Carry out the instructions which
appear in the display before
switching off, e.g., Empty the drip tray.
- The milk pipe is inserted into the
aperture in the drip tray.
- The coffee machine is switched off.
