15. Limescale prevention
To prevent limescale deposits and grant a better result in the cup, use the water
softener lter (M). The lter found in the equipment box has an autonomy tested
for 70 liters of water.
Use the slides put on the handles of the water tank (2) to remember the com-
plete llings of the tank and replace the lter once exhausted.
Note. The water softener lter must be replaced every 28 complete llings,
or after max 4 months of use. If the machine remains unused for 1 month, the
water softener lter must be replaced with a new one.
16. Daily cleaning
16.1 16.2 16.3
Note. For an optimal result we suggest you use our kit PLA9101 that con-
tains a microber cloth with embroidered LELIT logo, a paintbrush with bristles
in natural bers and a brush with nylon bristles.
Before starting, remove the plug from the electrical outlet and allow the machine
to cool. Remember not to use abrasive detergents and do not immerse the ma-
chine in water.
General cleaning. Use a soft cloth, preferably in microber (O), and moisten it
with tap water to clean the stainless steel appliance body of the machine (Pic 16.1).
Group cleaning. After each extraction empty the coffee lter, wash the lter-
holder and the relative lter with tap water and use the brush (N) to eliminate
coffee residues from the group gasket (Pic 16.2).
Steam wand cleaning. After frothing the milk, clean the nozzle of the steam
wand (5) using a soft cloth and dispense a small quantity of steam to eliminate
every possible milk rests in the holes (Pic 16.3).
