DESCALING
Descale the appliance when the light on the
panel flashes.
Important!
Descaler contains acids which may irritate the
skin and eyes.
It is vital to respect the manufacturer’s safety
warnings given on the descaler pack and the
warnings relating to the procedure to follow in
the event of contact with the skin and eyes.
Please note:
Use De’Longhi descaler only.
Under no circumstances should you use sulpha-
mic or acetic based descalers. Their use invalida-
tes the guarantee.
Failure to descale the appliance as described
above also invalidates the guarantee.

2. Empty the water tank (A12).
3. Pour the descaler diluted with water (respec-
ting the proportions indicated on the desca-
ler pack) into the water tank.

capacity of 1.5 litres under the hot water

ve limescale deposits from inside the machi-
ne.

SETTING WATER HARDNESS
The message comes on after a period of
time established according to water hardness.
The machine is set by default for a hardness va-
lue of 4 (very hard water).
The machine can also be programmed according
to the hardness of the mains water in the various
regions so that the machine needs to be descaled
less often.
