Decalcification / Maintenance
Drinking water varies according to region. The lime particles in hard drinking water
are deposited as residues in the machine and can block the piping and cause
damage. To prevent this, be sure to decalcify the machine at the very least after
making 300 to 400 cups of coffee or, in any case if the output falls significantly or,
after one or two months.
Decalcification must be done correctly to prevent damage. So it is essential to
follow these instructions.
Important:
-
Never clean the machine with vinegar. This causes damage and makes your
coffee taste bad.
-
Damage caused by incorrect decalcification or failure to decalcify is not
covered by the guarantee
-
Caution: beware of hot water!
1. Recommendations: purchase commercially available decalcifier (decalcifying
liquid), diluted according to the manufacturer
‘
s instructions; pour the mixture in
the water tank
2. Make sure there is without capsule inside the machine.
3. Place a large bowl under the dispensing head to collect the decalcification
diluted and lime residues.
4. Fill the water tank with water to maximum level mixed with decalcifying
solution, make sure the solution is dissolved completely.
5. Press the tall cup button to run decalcifying water as you brew coffee normally,
repeat for several times to run out the entire tank water.
6. Repeat the process to run another tank of water mixed with decalcifying
solution.
7. Repeat the process to Flush out the intern circuit with a tank of fresh water
(without the decalcifying solution) to clean the internal circuit completely.
