This menu performs the automatic descaling cycle. Descaling is necessary every 1-2 months,
when water dispenses more slowly than normal, or when the machine indicates the need to
descale. The machine must be turned on and will automatically manage the dispensing of the
descaling agent.
A PERSON MUST BE PRESENT DURING THIS OPERATION.
WARNING! NEVER USE VINEGAR AS A DESCALER.
Please use Saeco descaling solution in your machine. It has been speci
fi
cally

MAINTENANCE
Descaling is performed at a controlled temperature. If the machine is cold, you must wait until it has reached the
right temperature; otherwise you must cool the boiler as follows:
Turn the knob to the
position.
Place a container beneath the hot
water/steam wand.
If the boiler needs to warm up, the machine does so automatically. When the heating phase is complete, the “open
water/steam knob” message appears. Then proceed as described in step 5.
