DESCALING
The formation of limescale is a natural consequence of using
of the machine.
Descaling allows to optimise cleaning and removing scale de-
posits from the inside.
WARNING:
If the descaling is not performed the limescale can cause
malfunctions not covered by the warranty.
Use descaling products that are not excessively aggressive.
To descale the machine you can use any commercially avail-
able non-toxic descaling product for coffee machines.
Use the descaling product supplied with the machine to
descale for the fi rst time.
The need to run the descaling cycle is indicated by the dim-
ming of the and buttons every 10 seconds.
To descale the machine, proceed as follows:
Make sure that the main switch "M" is positioned to "0".
Check that there are no capsules in the capsule compartment
"B ".
Remove the water tank "L" and empty the residual water.
Fill the tank with 0.7 litres of
fresh drinking water.
Add the descaling product
and wait for it to dissolve (stir
to make the product dissolve
faster).
Fit the tank "L" back in the machine until it is inserted correctly
in place.
Place a container "W" with a
W
capacity of at least 1 litre be-
neath the brew group "C".
