8.14 Descaling
How descaling functions
Whenever steam is produced, depending on the hardness of the local water supply (i.e.
the limescale content of the water), limescale is deposited in the boiler. A system in the
appliance automatically detects when descaling is necessary and indicates this
whenever the appliance is switched on with the following message:
«Descaling necessary. Press to start (~45 mins.)»
We recommend descaling the appliance whenever the message appears in the
display. Continued failure to descale the appliance will likely impair its functions or
cause damage to the appliance. Descaling takes about 45 minutes.
Descaler
Using the wrong descaler can damage the appliance!
Always use the descaler recommended by the manufacturer. The use of an unsuit-
able descaler can cause damage to the appliance which does not fall within the
scope of the manufacturer’s guarantee. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
