Descaling
For optimum cleaning results, we recommend that you use
Original Miele descaling tablets to descale your steam oven
(see "Optional accessories"). A proprietary citric acid based
descaling agent can also be used. Follow the manufacturer's
instructions on the packaging.
Ensure that the descaling agent does not come into
contact with metal surfaces as this could cause marks.
However, should any descaling agent get onto these
surfaces, wipe it away immediately.
The appliance will need to be descaled after a certain
number of operating hours. After switching on, the descaling
symbol k and the number 10 will appear in the display to tell
you that you are able to run 10 programmes before the
appliance locks out and you must descale it.
If you do not descale the appliance now and run a
programme, the next time the appliance is switched on a 9
will appear, and so on.
Once the reminder has reached zero, the appliance locks
out.
We recommend descaling the appliance before it locks out.
^ Touch s until an audible tone sounds and "0:22 h" appears
in the display and the k symbol starts flashing.
^ Fill the water container with 1 litre of cold water and add 2
Miele descaling tablets.
^ Push the water container into the appliance until it
connects.
^ Confirm with "OK".
The colon will start flashing and the k symbol will now light
up constantly. The descaling process will begin.
It is only possible to cancel the descaling process during
the first few minutes.
Do not switch the appliance off during the descaling
process. If if is switched off before the end of the process,
the whole process will have to be started from the
beginning again.
