9. DESCALING
• Regular descaling of your appliance, as mentioned
in paragraphs A and B for the coffee and steam
functions, is the best guarantee of your machine's
long life. The frequency of the descaling operations
must be adapted to suit the hardness of your water.
Ask for advice from your local water authority.
• During the operation, do not stand your appliance
on a marble surface. The descaler could affect it.
• To make this clearer, please find below a summary
table of the frequencies of the descaling operations
according to the hardness of water and use:
If in doubt, we recommend carrying out a descaling
operation every month.
No repairs to your machine will be carried out under
guarantee due to:
• descaling not being carried out,
• scale.
A. Descaling of the coffee function
• Unplug the appliance.
• Insert the filter holder (without ground coffee) into
the appliance and lock it into place by turning it
towards the right as far as possible (fig. 3).
• Place a container with a volume of more than 1/2
litre under the filter holder (fig. 5).
• Check that the selector d1 is in the position .
• Empty the tank and put it in place.
• Fill the tank with a mixture of three parts water to
one part vinegar or citric acid.
• Switch on the appliance.
• Place the D3 button in the maximum volume
position.
• When the temperature light of the ON/OFF button
remains lit, you can then switch to the position
(coffee) (fig. 4).
• Let the mixture flow through (1/3).
• Turn the selector to the position .
• Wait 2 minutes, then repeat the operation 2 times.
• Now follow the instructions for descaling the steam
function.
B. Descaling the steam function
• Next place the recipient under the steam nozzle.
• Turn the selector d1 to the position (steam heat)
(fig. 16) (to obtain steam, the
temperature must be higher than that required for
coffee).
• the LED of the ON/OFF button flashes then remains
lit.
• Turn the selector d1 to the position (steam
extraction) (fig. 17): the steam pours into the
liquid. Let the rest of the mixture flow for 2 minutes.
• During the operation, it is normal for the water
temperature light to light up and then go out.
• After a few moments, put the switch in the
position (d1).
• When the d1 switch is in position , the device
cools automatically. During the cooling phase, the
light on the on/off button flashes, and hot water
and/or steam flows into the drip tray.
