Nespresso Vertuo Next Coffee Maker Descaling
IMPORTANT INFORMATION BEFORE YOU BEGIN
- Nespresso recommends descaling every 3 months or 300 capsules (whichever comes first).
- Nespresso machines should be descaled with a Nespresso Descaling Kit, which contains a natural solution that thoroughly dissolves the scale buildup. Other solutions (such as vinegar or store-bought descalers) may cause damage to your Nespresso machine.
- Descaling solution can damage or discolor surfaces so we suggest placing something underneath your machine in case a spill should occur. If a spill does occur, please make sure to clean up the solution immediately to avoid any damage.
- Keep descaling solution out of reach of children.
- In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water for 15 minutes and seek medical advice.
- Do not swallow or ingest the descaling solution.
- The descaling solution may be irritating to the eyes and skin.
- Avoid filling up the water tank during the descaling process.
- After descaling, wipe down the machine with a damp cloth.

STEP 1
With the machine plugged in, empty the capsule container and drip tray and place them back onto the machine.

Make sure there is no capsule in the machine. Close the machine head and lock the lever to the left to
turn the machine on. Wait until the light is steady (approx. 30
seconds).
STEP 4
Unlock the lever with the head closed. Press and hold the button until you see the steady light turn off first, and then start blinking orange quickly. It may take approximately 7 seconds before the light starts to blink.
STEP 5
Turn lever to the left to lock the lever, then turn lever back to the front to unlock the lever.
STEP 6
Press and hold the button until the light turns off and then starts blinking orange and quickly again (approx. 7 seconds). Steps 5 and 6 must be completed within 45 seconds.

With a large container (min 34oz) underneath the spout, press and release the button once to begin descaling. Light will continuously blink throughout the process.

Return the empty container underneath the coffee spout.
