CLEANING CYCLE PROCESS GUIDE
If cleaning is required, simply follow the steps
below and refer to the Machine Cleaning Cycle
guide.
1. Insert the cleaning disk into the one or
two cup filter disc.
2. Place the filter basket into the portafilter.
3. Put 1 cleaning tablet into the filter.
4. Lock the portafilter into the group head.
5. Turn the machine OFF.
6. Simultaneously press and hold the
1 CUP, 2 CUP and POWER button for
3 seconds.
7. The cleaning cycle will commence and
last for approximately 5 minutes. Once
complete, 3 beeps will sound. Remove
the portafilter and ensure the tablet has
completely dissolved.
If the tablet has not dissolved, repeat steps
5 to 7 until tablet has dissolved.
DESCALING
After regular use, hard water can cause
mineral build up in and on many of the inner
functioning components, reducing the brewing
flow, brewing temperature, power of the
machine, and taste of the espresso.
We advise you to undertake the descaling
processes outlined below when the ‘CLEAN /
DESCALE’ indicator is illuminated (solid on).
Refer to CLEANING CYCLE on page 24 when
the ‘CLEAN / DESCALE’ indicator is flashing.
Check if descaling is required
1. Check if the ‘CLEAN / DESCALE’ light is
illuminated (solid on), descaling is required.
WARNING
Do not immerse power cord, power plug
or appliance in water or any other liquid.
The water tank should never be removed or
completely emptied during descaling.
