DESCALING
If the water in your area is hard, limescale builds up over time.
These deposits may affect correct operation of the appliance.
You are recommended to descale the coffeemaker when two
buttons (F) and (G) flash simultaneously, which is approximately
every 60 cycles. If limescale visibly builds up in the water tank
prior to the buttons flashing and you would like to activate the
descaling process yourself, you will need to push and hold both
buttons (F & G) simultaneously for 2 seconds.
• To descale, always use De’Longhi descaler available at
Delonghi.com.
• Pour 3.4 oz (100 ml) De’Longhi descaler in the water tank
and add fresh water up to 8 cup (max) level.
• Place the empty carafe on the warming plate and hold for
2 seconds both the buttons (F & G) simultaneously. The
descaling process will begin.
• Once the descaling cycle is complete the lights on the two
buttons will turn off. Rinse the machine by following the
instructions in the “First Use” section on page 6.
• Failure to clean as described above invalidates the War-
ranty.
