Descaling
 Descaling is the process of running a descaling agent such as citric acid through the
machine to remove the accumulation of mineral deposits.
 If you are using softened water then it should not be necessary to descale the machine.
 Often times descaling can cause more problems than it solves. It can react to the
minerals and foam over ruining electrical components. If the solution is too strong it can
cause the chrome plating inside the group to flake off and get in the coffee or if it‟s too
weak it can dislodge minerals and cause a blockage. For liability reasons we strongly
discourage descaling and will not provide any instructions on the process.
Troubleshooting
No Steam From Steam Wand
 Make sure the main power switch has been turned on for at least 15 minutes.
 Check the upper gauge for steam pressure. Pressure should be about 1.2 bar. If the
gauge is at zero then refer to the
“Not Heating”
section of the troubleshooting manual.
If pressure is good then continue with steps below.
 Check the steam tip for a blockage. Clean steam tip holes with a paper clip.
 Check the steam wand for a blockage by unscrewing the steam tip from the wand.
Check the inside of the steam tip for dried up milk and then make sure the white teflon
tube in the steam wand is also free of dried up milk.
 Check the steam knob for proper operation.
Remove the end cap on the end of the steam
knob. Check to make sure that the c-clip
shown in the picture is attached.
