C. Rinsing
IMPORTANT!
• After descaling, rinse 2-
3 times with clear
water (without ground
coffee), as described in
section "First use".
• Don't forget to rinse
the steam nozzle. The
appliance is descaled
and ready to use
again.

• During the operation, do not stand your appliance on a marble surface. The des-
caler agent could damage it.
• The water tank should never be removed or completely emptied during decalci-
fying.
The warranty will be void if you do not undertake regular descaling and allow scale
build up. If in doubt, we recommend carrying out a descaling operation every
month.
A. Descaling of the coffee function
• Make sure the selector dial is on in the ‘OFF’ position and that the plug is dis-
connected from the power outlet.
• Place the filter holder (without ground coffee) into the brew head and lock it into
place by turning it towards the right as far as possible (fig. 3).
• Place a large container under the filter holder (fig. 4).
• Check that the selector dial d1 is in the "0" position.
• Empty the tank and place it back securely in position.
• Fill the tank with a mixture of three parts water to one part vinegar or citric/sul-
phamic acid.
• Switch on the appliance.
• When the temperature light of the ON/OFF button remains lit, you can then
switch to the position (coffee) (fig. 5).
• Let the mixture flow through.
• Wait for 2 minutes then repeat the operation twice.
• Turn the selector dial to the "0" position.
• Now follow the instructions for descaling the steam function.
B. Descaling the steam function
• Place a large container under the steam nozzle.
• Turn the selector dial d1 to the position (fig. 13) (to obtain steam, the tempe-
rature must be higher than that required for coffee).
• The LED of the ON/OFF button flashes then remains lit.
• Turn the selector dial d1 to the position (fig. 14): the steam pours into the li-
quid.
• 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 turn off.
• After a few moments, stop the appliance ("0" position).
• When the selector dial d1 is in the "0"position, the appliance cools down auto-
matically.
• During the cooling down phase, the ON/OFF LED button flashes and hot water
runs into the drip tray.
• After decalcifying, rinse the water tank thoroughly and re-fill with fresh cold water.
To rinse the machine, run half the water through the brewing head and half
through the steam wand.
• The machine is then ready for use
