DESCALING
Scale normally forms inside the machine with
use; descaling is necessary every 3-4 months
or whenever you observe a decrease in water
flow.
If you wish to descale the machine
yourself, you can use any commercially
available non-toxic, non-harmful descaling
product for coffee machines.
We recommend using Saeco descaler.
Warning! Never use vinegar as a
descaling agent.
• Remove the water tank and empty out any
water left inside it.
• (Fig.2) - Mix the descaling agent with water
as directed on the package and pour all the
solution into the tank. Place the tank inside
the machine

the ON/OFF switch (2).
• (Fig.5) - Place a container beneath the steam
tube.
• Empty the entire contents from the water
tank at intervals (one cup at a time): turn the
steam knob (7) counterclockwise and press
the coffee switch (4) to activate flow and then
press the coffee switch (4) again and turn the
steam knob (7) clockwise to shut off flow.
• (Fig.4B) - You should allow the descaling agent
to act for about 10-15 minutes during each
interval; in the meantime, turn off the machine
by pressing the ON/OFF switch (2). Empty out
the container.
• (Fig.2) - When all the descaling solution has
been run through the machine, take out the
water tank, rinse it out and refill it with fresh
drinking water.
• (Fig.3; Fig.5) - Place the tank back inside
the machine. Empty out 2/3 of the water
in the tank by turning the steam knob (7)
counterclockwise and pressing the coffee
switch (4); to shut off flow press the coffee
switch (4) again and turn the steam knob (7)
clockwise.
• Let the machine heat up and empty out
the remaining water in the tank by turning
the steam knob (7) counterclockwise and
pressing the coffee switch (4); to shut off flow
press the coffee switch (4) again and turn the
steam knob (7) clockwise.
Should you use a descaling product
other than the one recommended,
make sure in any case to follow the
manufacturer's directions on the package.
