solution.

drip tray or fill the water container.
Descaling must be carried out. The
process takes approx.15minutes.
The coffee machine will give you plenty
of warning when it needs to be

Preparing the descaling solution
For optimum descaling results, we
recommend using the Miele descaling
tablets provided.
The descaling tablets have been
specially developed for Miele coffee
machines.
Other descalers, which contain other
acids besides citric acid and/or other
undesirable substances, such as
chlorides for example, can cause
damage to the product. Moreover,
the descaling result required cannot
be guaranteed if the descaling
solution was not of the appropriate
concentration.
Miele descaling tablets are available to
order via the Miele webshop, from the
Miele Customer Service Department
(see the end of this booklet for contact
details) or from your Miele dealer.
You will need 1descaling tablet to
