DESCALING THE ESPRESSO MACHINE
The descaling program enables simple and effective descaling of your Espresso Machine.
Descale the Espresso Machine regularly, but a minimum whenever the “Clean ( )” indicator
is blinking. The frequency of descaling depends on the hardness of the water in your region.
Therefore, it is important to program the Espresso Machine according to the water hardness
level of your location.
NOTE:
The descaling process runs in 4 phases, takes approximately 10 minutes and
must be completed before next use. At any time during the descaling program you can
pause the cycle by pressing
button. And, resume too by pressing
button.
