CARE & CLEANING
7. The cleaning cycle will commence
and last for approximately
5 minutes. During this time, water
will intermittently pour from the
group head. Once complete, 3 beeps
will sound.
8. Remove the portafilter and ensure
the tablet has completely dissolved.
If the tablet has not dissolved, repeat
until the tablet has dissolved.
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. Remove the portafilter.
2. Pour a 50/50 mixture of white
vinegar and cold tap water into the
water tank.
3. Place a large container beneath the
group head and steam wand.
4. When the brewing temperature has
been reached and all the button
surrounds 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 and rinse thoroughly then refill
with fresh cold water only. To rinse
the machine, repeat the steps above.
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.
