Cleaning Mineral Deposits
To ensure your coffee maker operates efficiently, the internal piping should be cleaned every
1-2 months to guarantee optimal coffee flavour.
1. Fill the tank with water and descaler to the MAX level. The proportion of water and
descaler is 4:1. Use a household descaler, or citric acid at a ratio of 100:3 (water to
citric acid).
2. Follow the preheating process above (steps 2-6) to set the water temperature.
3. When there is water flowing out, close the pump by pressing the pump control
button again and wait for a moment for the appliance to reheat.
4. When the ready indicator illuminates green, press down the pump control button
to the lower position and “brew” two cups’ worth of water/descaler (about 60ml).
Then close the pump and wait for 5 seconds.
5. Press down the coffee/steam button, waiting until the green indicator is
illuminated. Make steam for 2 minutes and then turn the steam knob to the "O"
position. Press the ON/OFF button to turn off the unit immediately and let the
descaler collect in the internal piping for at least 15 minutes.
6. Restart the unit and repeat steps 2-5 at least three times, then press and release
the coffee/steam button. When the green indicator is illuminated, press down the
pump control button to brew until no descaler is left.
7. Perform the brewing process (using no coffee powder) with tap water filled up to the
MAX level of the water tank. Repeat the steps of 2-5 for 3 times (it is not necessary
to wait 15 minutes in step 5), then brewing again until no water is left in the tank.
Note:
Ensure you repeat step 7 at least three times to guarantee the piping is clean.
