Descaling is necessary every 3-4 months, when there is a reduction in the water
capacity. The machine must be on; it automatically controls the distribution of the
descaling solution.
DESCALING
Warning! Never use vinegar as a descaling agent.
You can use any
commercially available non-toxic, non-harmful descaling product for coffee
machines. We recommend using a Saeco descaling agent.
The machine signals when
it needs descaling.
If the descaling cycle is
interrupted by switching off
the machine, it will automatically re-
sume when the machine is switched
back on.
When descaling is over, fit the
cartridge filter back in place.
Press the MENU button
to access the descaling
function.
See “Programming”.
