DESCALING
The descaling process takes approx. 35 minutes.
Lime scale builds up inside the machine during use. It needs to be remo-
ved regularly as it may clog the water and co
ff
ee circuit of your machine.
The machine tells you when descaling is needed. If the “
”
light shines
steadily, it means that you need to descale.
Caution:
Not doing this will ultimately make your machine stop working pro-
perly, and in this case repair is NOT covered by your warranty.
Use the Saeco decalci
fi
er only. Its formula has been designed to ensure
better machine performance.
You can purchase separately the SAECO decalci
fi
er. Please refer to the
maintenance products page in this user manual for further details.
Warning:
Never drink the decalci
fi
er or any products dispensed until the cycle
has been carried out to the end. Never use vinegar as a decalci
fi
er.

ff
the machine .If this has happe-
ned you need to restart the descaling cycle from the very beginning.
