11 DESCALING
Scaling occurs naturally when the appliance
is used. Approximately every 3-4 months you
should descale it; it is ready for descaling
when you notice a reduction in the water fl ow
or when the LED of the button (26) fl ashes.
If you wish to carry this out at home,
you can use a descaling product for
coffee makers that is non toxic and/or not
harmful and commonly available on the
market.
Caution! Never use vinegar.
To descale the appliance proceed as fol-
lows:
Mix the descaler with water as specifi ed on
the package and fi ll the water tank.
Switch ON the appliance with the ON/OFF
switch (7).
Press the button (26) for at least 5 seconds
to select the descaling operating mode; the
LED emits a fi xed light.
Direct the steam nozzle (14) toward the drip
tray.
Position a vessel of adequate capacity under
the steam nozzle and turn the hot water
knob anticlockwise (16). The appliance star-
ts an automatic descaling cycle with pauses
preset by the manufacturer and managed
automatically by the appliance.
• At the end of the cycle, the fl ow of the de-
scaling solution is shut off and the 5 buttons
start fl ashing simultaneously.
Turn the knob of the hot water nozzle (16)
clockwise to OFF. In this case, also the
warning light (27) fl ashes.
Rinse the water tank and fi ll it with fresh
drinking water.
Position a vessel of adequate capacity
under the steam nozzle and empty 2/3 of
the contents of the water tank by turning the
steam knob (16) anticlockwise; to shut off
the fl ow, turn the knob (16) clockwise.
Let the appliance heat up and empty the
remaining contents of the water tank by
turning the steam knob (16) anticlockwise;
to stop the fl ow, turn it clockwise.
If you use a different product from the
recommended one, we recommend you
follow the instructions of the descaler manu-
facturer as specifi ed on the package.
If the descaling cycle is interrupted by
switching the machine OFF, this is re-
started when the machine is switched back
ON.
