specific (store-bought) products for descaling of
espresso coffee machines be used. If such products are
not available, it is possible to proceed as follows:

a container under the outlet of the machine;

half of the solution in the tank to flow out. Then stop
the flow by turning the selector to the "O" position.
6.Allow the solution to act for about 15 minutes, then
start up the flow again until the tank is completely
empty;
7.To eliminate the remains of the solution and the
calcium, rinse the tank well, fill it with clean water
and replace.
8.Turn the selector knob to the
all of the remaining solution in the tank to flow out.
9.Turn the selector knob to the
