Cleaning And Care - Smeg 50's Style Series Manual

4. Rinse the appliance by operating it with
just water for at least 2 cycles, filling the
tank to its maximum limit (1.4 litres).
Caution
• Coffee can be brewed even if the
DESCALING alarm is active.
• Carry out a descaling cycle when
prompted to do so by the appliance.
• Limescale deposits can prevent the
appliance from working correctly,
especially if the water is very hard.
• Regularly descaling the
appliance helps to preserve the
aroma of the coffee and to keep
the appliance in good working
order.
Danger of personal injury and
damage to the appliance
• The descaler contains acid which can
irritate the skin and eyes.
• Follow the manufacturer's instructions
and safety warnings on the pack to the
letter; they will also tell you what to do in
the event of contact with skin or eyes.
• Use descaling products recommended
by Smeg to avoid damaging the drip
coffee machine.
