DECALCIFICATION

Decalcification refers to the removal of calcium 
deposits that form over time on the metal parts 
of the coffeemaker.
For best performance from your espresso maker, 
decalcify the unit from time to time. The 
frequency depends on the hardness of your tap 
water and how often you use the coffeemaker. 
To clean, fill the water reservoir to capacity with 
a mixture of 1∕3 white vinegar and 2∕3 water. Be 

sure the power button is in the off position, and 
the unit  is unplugged. Remove the portafilter 
holder. Pour the decalcifying agent into the water 
reservoir, plug the machine back in, and power 
the unit back on. Set the power button to on and 
the large function knob to the off position. Place 
a large container under the brew head and 
steam wand. When brewing temperature is 
reached, the heating light will switch off. Set the 
large function knob to the espresso position 
and let half of the solution run through the brew 
head. Set the large function knob to steam 
position and allow the remaining solution to run 
through the steam wand. When the solution 
stops running, set the large function knob back 
to the off position. After decalcifying, let one 
cycle of fresh cold water through the unit before 
using the unit again to brew coffee.  Any other 
servicing should be performed by an authorized 
service representative.
