Decalcification

Decalcification / Maintenance

Drinking water varies according to region. The lime particles in hard drinking water are deposited as residues in the machine and can block the piping and cause damage. To prevent this, be sure to decalcify the machine at the very least after making 300 to 400 cups of coffee or,in any case if the output falls significantly or, after one or two months.

Decalcification must be done correctly to prevent damage. So it is essential to follow these instructions.

Important:

• Never clean the machine with vinegar. This causes damage and makes your coffee taste bad.
• Damage caused by incorrect decalcification or failure to decalcify is not covered by the guarantee.
• Caution: beware of hot water!

1. Recommendations: purchase commercially available decalcifier (decalcifying liquid), diluted according to the manufacturer's instructions; pour the mixture in the water tank.
2. Make sure there is without capsule inside the machine.
3. Place a large bowl under the dispensing head to collect the decalcification diluted and lime residues
4. Fill the water tank with water to maximum level mixed with decalcifying solution, make sure the solution is dissolved completely.
5. Press the lungo button to run decalcifying water as you brew coffee normally, repeat for several times to run out the entire tank water.
6. Repeat the process to run another tanks of water mixed with decalcifying solution.
7. Repeat the process to Flush out the intern circuit with a tank of fresh water (without the decalcifying solution) to clean the internal circuit completely.

Self-priming procedure

Before using for the first time or after long pauses (e.g. holidays) the machine may be difficult to pump water, this short procedure can help pump to self priming by using the pipe to fill water into the circuit manually prior to turn on the machine for first refill.

1. Remove the water tank and insert the hose into the water inlet at the bottom of the water tank
2. Inject a small amount of water into the hose.
