DESCALING
Glass coffee pot
Why descale
The scale is naturally deposited in your coffee maker. Descaling preserves the
coffee maker and ensures it a longer life. Descaling ensures a consistent quality of
coffee. The scale may permanently deteriorate the performance of the machine. The
guarantee does not cover appliances which become faulty because the descaling
operations have not been carried out regularly.
When to descale
The frequency of descaling depends on the water hardness and the number of coffee
cycles. When the following signs are encountered: cycle time lengthened, high
evaporation, high level of noise at the end of cycle, stop during the cycle, it signies
that your machine is calcied.
The descaling of the coffee maker must be between 20 and 30 cycles or once a
month depending on the water hardness.
How to descale your KRUPS coffee maker
Use the KRUPS® descaling solution diluted in 17 . oz of water or 8 . oz of
commercially available white vinegar in 17 . oz of water or 1,5 oz of citric acid
diluted in 17 . oz until complete dissolution of crystals.
Pour the solution into the water tank (without coffee).
Start the cycle (without coffee). After 2 min, manually stop the cycle. Leave it still for
an hour. Restart the coffee to complete the cycle.
To rinse the machine, run 2 cycles with water but no coffee.
Repeat the operation if necessary.
The guarantee does not cover coffee makers which are not working or which
are working poorly due to failure to regularly descale the machine.
