The water filter provided helps to prevent
scale build up which over time can affect the
performance of your machine, potentially causing
blockages and heating problems.
Replacing the water filter every three months
will reduce the mineral build up in the machine.
If you live in a hard water area, we recommend
you change the water filter more frequently.
PORTAFILTER CLEANING
Periodically run water through the machine with
the portafilter in place, but without any ground
coffee, to rinse out any residual coffee particles.
MACHINE CLEANING
After regular use, residual grinds and oil build up
in the machine can affect coffee extraction.
We recommend performing a cleaning cycle
every 2-3 months using the cleaning tablet
provided.
To perform a cleaning cycle:
1. Insert the silicon disk into the portafilter.
2. Place the cleaning tablet on the silicon
disk (position in the centre).
3. Insert the portafilter into the group head
and rotate to right to lock in position.
4. Ensure Power On / Off button is on.
5. Turn the dial to the 'Espresso' position for
20 seconds.
6. Turn the dial back to the 'Standby'
position.
7. Repeat steps 5-6 three times or until the
cleaning tablet is dissolved.

the water tank before adding the descaling
powder when descaling the machine.
