CARE & CLEANING
DECALCIFYING
After regular use, hard water can cause
mineral build up in and on many of the
inner functioning components, reducing
the brewing flow, brewing temperature,
power of the machine, and taste of the
espresso. We advise decalcifying the
machine every month and especially if not
using the machine for an extended period
eg. before going on vacation.
1. Press the POWER button to switch
the machine off.
2. Pour a 50/50 mixture of white
vinegar and cold tap water into the
water tank.
3. Remove the portafilter from the
group head and place a large
container beneath the group head
and steam wand.
4. Press the POWER button to switch
the machine on. When the brewing
temperature has been reached and
all the button lights on the control
panel have illuminated, press and
hold the 1 CUP button to commence
a manual pour. Release the button
once half the mixture of white
vinegar and water has run through
the group head.
5. Set the STEAM/HOT WATER dial
to the HOT WATER position and
allow hot water to run through the
hot water outlet for approximately
30 seconds. Return the dial back
to the STANDBY position.
6. Set the STEAM/HOT WATER dial to
the STEAM position and allow steam
to run through the steam wand for
approximately 2 minutes. Return the
dial back to the STANDBY position.
7. If any of the mixture remains in the
water tank, press and hold the 1 CUP
button to commence a manual pour.
Release the button once the tank is
empty and nothing runs through the
group head.
8. In harder water environments, we
recommend repeating this cycle.
9. After decalcifying, remove the water
tank, rinse thoroughly then refill with
fresh cold water only. To rinse the
machine, repeat steps 3–7.
WARNING
Do not immerse power cord, power
plug or appliance in water or any
other liquid. The water tank should
never be removed or completely
emptied during decalcifying.
