Sunbeam EM4300 - Descaling the Machine; Descaling Preparation and Solutions

After continued use, your espresso machine
may develop a build-up of mineral deposits,
and therefore require occasional ‘descaling’.
We recommend descaling your machine
every 4-6 months, although this period
will depend on the hardness of water and
frequency of use.
Descaling Solution
You have 3 options:
A. Sunbeam Espresso Machine Descaling
Tablets (EM0010).
or
B. Sunbeam Liquid Descaler (KE0100).
A & B Descaling options are available for
purchase from Sunbeam. Details are on the
back page.
or
C. White vinegar & warm water.
Descaling Program
The Descaling Program takes approximately
10 minutes to complete.
Preparing for Descaling
• Fill Water Reservoir with Solution
A. Fill Water Reservoir with 1 Litre of warm
water add one Sunbeam Descaling Tablet.
Allow tablet to fully dissolve.
or
B. In an empty Water Reservoir add half a
cap full of Sunbeam Liquid Descaler. Fill
Water Reservoir with 1 Litre of warm water.
Allow solution to mix thoroughly.
or
C. In an empty Water Reservoir add 1½
tablespoons of white vinegar. Fill Water
Reservoir with 1 Litre of warm water. Allow
solution to mix thoroughly.
- Place the Water Reservoir into position.
• Place Containers
Place a 1 Litre container under Group Head
and another 1 Litre container under the
Steam Wand.

- Operating DIAL is in the vertical READY
position.
- The Power Plug is inserted into the outlet
and turned on.

for 4 seconds or until a flashing light
combination between the ON/OFF & READY

is not completed or stopped part way
through any of the Descaling Steps,
then you will need to start the Descaling
Program again from the beginning.
