Descaling

It is recommended to descale the machine about every 
200 coffees.
Follow this procedure:
1.  Fill the tank with the descaling solution obtained 

by diluting the descaler with water following the 
indications given on the pack.

2.  Switch the appliance on by turning the selector to 

the   position and wait until the OK indicator light 
comes on.

3.  Make sure that the filter holder is not attached and 

position  a  suitable  container  under  the  machine 
outlet.

4.  Rotate  the  selector  dial  to  the 

  position  and 

allow  about  1/4  of  the  solution  contained  in  the 
tank flow out. Every now and again turn the steam 
dial and allow a small amount of solution to escape; 
then interrupt by turning the selector dial to the    
position then interrupt by pressing the button again 
and leave the solution to act for about 5 minutes.

5.  Repeat point 4 another 3 times or until the tank is 

completely empty.

6.  To eliminate residues of the descaling solution, rinse 

the tank well and fill it with clean water (without 
descaler).

7.  Rotate  the  selector  dial    to  the 

  position  and 

operate the appliance until the tank is completely 
empty.

8.  Repeat operations 6 and 7 again.
Repairs  to  the  coffee  machine  relative  to  lime  scale 
problems are not covered by the warranty if the descaling 
procedure is not performed on a regular basis.
