7 Descaling
Regular descaling prolongs the life of the appliance
and guarantees optimal brewing results for a long
time.
In case of normal use (two brewing cycles a day),
descale your coffeemaker:
• Every two months if you use soft water (up to
18dH) or filtered water;
• Every month if you use hard water (over 18dH).
Contact your local water board for information
about the water hardness in your area.
To descale your appliance, we advise you to
use Philips SENSEO ® citric acid-based descaler
(HD7012, HD7011, HD7006), which is suitable
for this appliance as well. For more information
about this descaler, visit our website www.shop.
philips.com/service.
D Note:
You can also use a citric acid-based liquid descaler.
In that case, follow the instructions on the package
of the descaler.
D Note:
We advise you not to use acetic acid-based
descaler (vinegar), as this could have a negative
effect on the taste of the coffee.
C Caution:
Never use an acid- or vinegar-based descaling
agent with 8% or more acetic acid to descale the
appliance, as this may cause damage.
1
Mix 50 grams (1 sachet) of citric acid-based
descaler with 1 litre of lukewarm water
in a measuring jug. Stir until the powder is
completely dissolved.
2
Pour half of the descaling mixture (0.5 litres)
in the water tank. Do not put a filter or
ground coffee in the filter holder.
3
Place the jug on the hotplate. Switch on the
appliance and let it complete one brewing cycle.
4
Switch off the appliance and let it cool down
for 3 minutes.
5
Repeat step 2 and 3 with the rest of the
descaling mixture.
