TO DELIME WATER RESERVOIR
1. Make sure the Control Knob is in the “OFF” position and that the Power Cord is
unplugged from the electrical outlet.
2. If the appliance is cool and the pressure has been released, remove the Water
Reservoir Cap and fill Reservoir with fresh, undiluted white household vinegar.
3. Allow appliance to sit overnight with the vinegar solution in the Water Reservoir.
4. Discard vinegar through the top opening of the Espresso Maker by turning the
machine upside down over the sink.
5. Rinse the Water Reservoir thoroughly with tap water by filling tank half full with
water and then pouring the water back out into the sink, repeating this step twice.
TO DELIME INTERNAL PARTS
1. Make sure you delime the inside of the Water Reservoir first by following the “Deliming”
steps above.
2. Fill Glass Carafe to 4 cup mark with fresh, undiluted white household vinegar to the top
of the metal band and pour into Water Reservoir.
3. Screw the Water Reservoir Cap and make sure the Cap is on tight.
4. Insert the Filter Holder (with Filter) in its groove and turn handle to the right until it
shifts to LOCK Position. Place the Glass Carafe with lid on the Drip Tray.
5. Plug the power cord into the electrical outlet.
6. Turn the Control Knob to the BREW position.
7. When vinegar reaches the 2 cup mark on the Glass Carafe, place a cup with cold water
under the Frothing Aid. Insert the Frothing Arm into the water and slowly turn the
control knob to the STEAM position.
8. Allow steam to fully run out.
9. Turn Control Knob to the OFF position.
Repeat Steps 1 – 7 as necessary using only tap water to rinse any remaining traces of
vinegar out of the appliance. Allow unit to cool for 30 minutes between each rinse cycle.
CARAFE CLEANING
Hard water can leave a whitish mineral deposit inside the Glass Carafe. Coffee
discolors these deposits, sometimes leaving a brownish stain inside the Carafe. To
remove these stains, follow these simple steps:
1. Use a solution of equal parts white vinegar and hot water.
2. Let solution stand in carafe for about 20 minutes and then discard.
3. Wash and rinse the carafe thoroughly using a soft cloth. Do not use harsh abrasive
cleaners. These may cause scratches which can lead to breakage.
