10 DESCALING
Limescale normally builds up with the use of the appliance.
The machine needs descaling every 1-2 months (if used) and/
or whenever a reduction in water fl ow is noticed. Use the Saeco
descaling product only.
In case of confl ict, priority must be given to
what is indicated in the operation and mainte-
nance manual over the instructions provided on sepa-
rately sold accessories and materials.
Use the Saeco descaling solution only. Its formu-
la has been designed to ensure better machine
performance and operation for its whole operating life.
If correctly used, it also avoids alterations in the brewed
product. The descaling solution is to be disposed of ac-
cording to the manufacturer’s instructions and/or the
regulations in force in the country
of use.
Never drink the descaling
solution or any products
dispensed until the cycle has
been completed. Never use vin-
egar as a descaling solution.
