Do a Google search for the brand and model of the coffee maker that you have. Then, look to see if the user manual is available on line. The instructions should tell you how to clean it.
If you can't find the exact instruction manual for your machine, try to find one for another model. The descaling instructions are pretty much the same.

There are different types of descalers available, but simple citric acid works great and is quite cheap. I've used 1 TBSP dissolved in 1 qt of warm water with good/safe results. Just rinse well as you would after descaling.
To answer your question on it being too late after 3 yrs of use... Doubt it and it really depends on the water quality used for that time.
