Important:
Never clean the machine with vinegar. This causes damage and makes your coffee taste
terrible.
Damage caused by incorrect decalcification or failure to decalcify is not covered by the
warranty.
Caution: beware of hot water!
Recommendations: purchase commercially available decalcifier (decalcifying liquid), diluted
according to the manufacturer‘s instructions; pour the mixture in the water reservoir. Note: Please
use a “household” descaler suitable for domestic espresso/ coffee machines.
1. Make sure there is no capsule inside the machine.
2. Place a large bowl under the dispenser spout to collect the diluted liquid solution and lime
residues.
3. Fill the water reservoir with water to maximum level mark, mixed with the decalcifying
solution. Make sure that the solution is dissolved completely.
4. Turn the machine ON and wait until it is ready for use.
5. Press the Short or Espresso button. The button indicator will flash and the control panel
indicator light will turn blue.
6. You will notice that the machine is descaling and water is running through the dispensing
spout. Continue with this process until the water reservoir is empty. After running about 5
cups of water through this process, the middle LED indicator will no longer glow.
7. Refill the water reservoir with fresh water and press the Short or Espresso button. This
process will remove the remaining descaler and water solution from the system. Continue
with this process until the water reservoir is empty.
8. Descaling is now complete and you are ready to make coffee.
Tip: if you need to empty the bowl which is located under the dispenser spout during the
decalcifying process, you can press the button
so that it enters a ‘pause’ mode. Press it again to
continue.
