Other cleaning
• Clean the jug and filter holder regularly.
• Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents when
cleaning the machine"s plastic components. A
soft cloth is sufficient.
•
NEVER immerse the appliance in water.
DESCALING
The limestone contained in the water will, with the
passing of time, cause obstructions likely to prevent
the coffee machine from working properly, thereby
increasing the time needed to make coffee. The
formation of limestone deposits depends on the
hardness of the water and on how often the machine
is used. To get the best out of your appliance, it is
necessary to descale it from time to time. The coffee
machine is equipped with a system for checking the
quantity of limestone deposits. When these reach a
high level,
the ON coffee light (T) will begin to flash:
this means that it is time to descale the coffee part. To
do so, you should proceed as follows:
• remove the chlorine filter and the permanent filter
10
from the appliance (to avoid them becoming
contaminated with vinegar);
• pour out a sachet of descaler and 4 cups of
water; dissolve the descaler in the water by
stirring it with a spoon and pour the solution into
the water tank (fig. 4). As an alternative, pour in
2 cups of vinegar;
• put the jug on the hotplate and attach the filter
holder without the ground coffee;
• press the ON/OFF key and allow the equivalent
of 2 cups to percolate before switching off the
appliance;
• leave the solution to take effect for an hour;
• turn the machine on again and allow the rest of
the solution to percolate;
• rinse by making the appliance work only with
water at least 3 times (1 full jug each time);
• if the ON light (
T
) is still flashing at the end of the
operation, repeat the descaling process.
Warning: never descale the boiler.
