Descaling cycle
Step 1. Start Descaling cycle
Important: Ensure steam lever is still in the
ON position.
- To activate the descaling cycle, press the 1
CUP button once.
- The pumps for both espresso and steam will
start to pump through the descaling solution
for approximately 15 seconds.
- Both pumps will stop and wait for
approximately 1 minute to allow the
descaling solution to take effect.
- The machine will repeat the pumping and
rest cycles for 13 times for the espresso
and steam Thermoblocks. This will take
approximately 17 minutes.
- At the completion of the 14 cycles, the
machine will start to beep and the 1 CUP
button will flash.
Step 2. Preparing for purge
- The group head and steam wand now need
to be purged clean with fresh water to
remove the descaling solution.
• Rinse water tank
- Remove the water tank and rinse thoroughly
under running water, ensuring that all
traces of the descaling solution have been
removed.
• Fill water tank
- Fill the water tank with filtered water and
insert into position.
• Empty container
- Empty water from the container and place
back into position
- Move to Step 3.
Step 3. Start purge
- To activate the descaling process by pressing
the 1 CUP button once.
- The pumps for espresso and steam will
start to pump clean water through for
approximately 1 – 2 minutes.
- The lights on the control panel will start to
chase from left to right.
- To indicate the completion of the descaling
cycle, the machine will beep 4 times and will
go into READY state.
Descaling cycle clean up
- Empty water from the containers and rinse
thoroughly to ensure that all traces of the
descaling solution have been removed.
Note:
One of two things will happen:
- If the machine has been recently used,
the temperature of the steam thermoblock
may need to be cooled before the descaling
cycle can start. Water will flow through the
steam wand until the steam thermoblock
has cooled to the appropriate temperature.
- OR if the machine starts to beep, it
means it is ready to start the descaling
cycle.
