– Like each natural product, the consist-

ency of the  BRITA MicroporeFilter is 

subject to natural variances. This can 

lead to a slight abrasion of small carbon 

particles into your filtered water, notice-

able as black bits. These particles have 

no negative health effects. If ingested, 

they will not harm the human body. In 

case you observe carbon particles, 

 BRITA recommends to flush the cartridge 

several times or until the black bits 

disappear.

 

–  BRITA cannot accept responsibility or 

liability if you do not respect our recom-

mendations for the use and exchange of 

the  BRITA filter cartridge.

Descaling
Your appliance has an automatic descaling 

programme. When the N icon lights up, 

run the descaling programme as soon as 

possible. If the descaling programme is not 

run as instructed, the appliance may be 

damaged.

Tip: With very hard, calciferous water, 

please descale the appliance more often 

than the N symbol is displayed. Even 

filtered water contains low amounts of 

calcium carbonate. 

 

Turn the appliance off with the 

on/off 

switch.

 

Press and hold the 

start/stop button.

 

Turn the appliance back on with the 

on/

off switch.

 

Release the 

start/stop button as soon 

as the N symbol lights up.

Now proceed as described under “Running 

the descaling programme”.

Suitable descaling agents are available 

from Bosch Customer Service (Article 

No. 310967) or from specialty retailers.

Notes:

 

– Never interrupt the descaling programme.

 

– Never drink any of the liquids used in 

descaling.

 

– Never use vinegar or vinegar-based 

products.

 

– Always remove the filter holder and the 

filter cartridge before starting the descal-

ing programme.

Running the descaling programme

 

Remove the water tank, pour out any 

remaining water, and reinsert it.

 

Prepare the descaling solution accord-

ing to the manufacturer’s instructions 

and pour it into the water tank up to the 

calc mark. A descaling agent approved 

especial y for this machine is available 

from Bosch Customer Service (Article 

No. 310967) or from specialty retailers.

 

Place a container holding at least 500 ml 

under the water outlet. The container 

must fit the cup stand exactly and must 

remain in place. Set the cup stand to the 

lowest position.

 

Press and hold the 

start/stop button for 

at least 10 seconds to start the descaling 

programme.

 

The descaling programme will now 

run automatical y. The N icon flashes 

while the programme is running. (The 

programme runs for approx. 10  minutes). 

The descaling solution is pumped 

through the appliance in multiple phases 

and then runs into the container until 

the water tank is almost empty. A small 

amount of solution is always left in the 

tank. 

 

When the most recently selected 

temperature icon lights up, the descaling 

program has finished.

 

Rinse the water tank thoroughly and fill 

up to the 

max mark with fresh water.

 

Now select and draw warm water three 

times to rinse out the appliance. Do not 

drink this water!

Important: Do not interrupt the descaling 

process under any circumstances. If the 

programme is interrupted because of, for 

example, too little water or a power failure, 

it must be restarted.
