Descaling
Attention: The descaling operations mus
be carried out when the machine
components are cold.
Descaling removes limescale from all surfaces
and holes, thus ensuring a perfect operation of
valves, heating controls and other important
parts.
Note: due to the complexity of the coffee
machine hydraulic circuit, the following descaling
cycles (automatic and standard) do not allow the
descaling of all tubes.
In fact, easily accessible components
such as the central unit (22) and its
plastic connection are excluded.
The machine must be descaled every 3-4 months,
depending on the water hardness degree.
A more frequent descaling is recommended
wherever the water hardness degree is very high.
To avoid dangerous delays to users, this machine
is supplied with a special control counter,
reminding the user to perform this operation,
according to the water hardness degree.
