Never immerse the appliance in water or hold under running water. Danger of burning! Find out about the hardness of your water by asking your water provider. If your water is particularly hard, you will need to decalcify after approx. 30 uses and after approx. 60 uses if it has a lower degree of hardness. Use a decalcifier suitable for household appliances. Observe the instructions for use on the decalcifier. Always wait until the coffee machine has cooled down before cleaning it. Otherwise you could damage the appliance. ➪ Caution! ➪ Do not use household detergents or sharp objects to remove marks. Doing so could damage the coffee machine. ➪ ➪ ➪ Wipe the coffee machine housing and glass jug with mild soapsuds using a slightly damp cloth, removing any deposits inside the glass jug.
