The Miele Descaling Cartridge
Only use the Miele Descaling
Cartridge for the automatic descaling
program.
Please note that the Miele Descaling
Cartridge has a lifespan of approx.
one year after it has been placed in
the machine and filled with water for
the first time. The date on which the
descaling cartridge was installed and
filled with water determines the one-
year shelf-life.
Do not install a descaling cartridge
which has already been used in
another Miele coffee machine. Your
coffee machine will have no
information about the fill level of this
cartridge. The descaling effect may
be insufficient and damage your
coffee machine.
Do not fill the descaling cartridge
with other fluids or substances.
The descaling agent comes in the form
of tablets in the descaling cartridge.
The cartridge is filled with water when it
is placed in the machine. The tablets
gradually dissolve over time.
The Miele Descaling Cartridge will last
for 7to12months of automatic
descaling, depending on how often the
coffee machine is used.
A prompt will appear in the display
shortly before the cartridge is depleted,
reminding you that it needs to be
replaced. Confirm the message
withOK. After this first message, six
more descaling programs are possible.
The Miele Descaling Cartridge is
available to order from the Miele online
shop, from Miele Technical Service, or
from your Miele dealer.
If a descaling cartridge is not installed,
an empty cartridge is installed, or an
expired cartridge is installed, the
machine needs to be descaled using
the Descale the appliance maintenance
program. To do this, the appropriate
descaling agent is required (see
“Descaling the appliance” in the
“Cleaning and care” chapter).
The descaling cartridge can remain
installed even if the machine is not used
for a long time. Remove the cartridge
before transporting the coffee machine.
Please note:
- Once filled with water, the descaling
cartridge has a maximum shelf life of
three weeks outside of the machine.
- It should be transported with care
and upright. Avoid shaking it.
Shaking or turning upside down
reduces the shelf life or damages the
cartridge.
- The cartridge should be stored
upright, in a dark place, and at room
temperature 60–100F (16–38°C).
