I have not used the clean cycle yet, and from what I read in book, it will go off. I also went out to the Braun site, and you can use a 50/50 mixture of distilled white vinegar and water mixture to clean/descale when it needs It (this should be done about once a month). Run the 12 cup mixture through until it is at the 6 cup mark, then turn off machine and wait about an hour. Turn back on and hit brew and let it run the rest of the way through. You'll need to run a full pot or two of clean water through machine to rinse out the vinegar. This takes longer than buying the descaling mixture Braun sells, and it cost much much less, so I don't mind the extra time. Another buyer said that if light comes on too often, run a pot of clean water through, and light will go off until you are ready to clean/descale. We use a Culligan filter system under the sink, so water is already filtered and hope this will help keep it cleaner longer. The machine's water filter is also optional if using clean filtered water. Water from most taps has things in it you don't want to know about, so a nice water filter of some kind is recommended.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it will. I find that mine displays the clean light frequently. But we don't clean it with chemicals each time. Merely running the clean cycle with water seems to clear the condition.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it will. You can use vinegar instead of the high priced cleaner that they recommend and it will serve the purpose just as well.
