Steaming out/ storage/ transport
• Steaming out:
• Prior to long periods of disuse or for storage or transport at temperatures below 5 ºC, it is essential to steam out the machine. This removes water
from the system to prevent internal frost damage.
• Turn on the machine.
• Empty the water tank and place it in its position.
• Put an empty cup under the coffee dispensing spout.
• Press "lungo" button to start brewing.
• Steaming out now commences.
• After the pump stops automatically, the steaming out process is completed.
• Turn off the machine and unplug.
Caution: Beware of hot steam: danger of scalding!
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!
Recommendations: purchase commercially available decalcifier (decalcifying liquid), diluted according to the manufacturer's instructions; pour the
mixture in the water tank.
• Make sure there is without capsule inside the machine.
• Place a large bowl under the dispensing head to collect the decalcification diluted and lime residues.
• Fill the water tank with water to maximum level mixed with decalcifying solution, make sure the solution is dissolved completely.
• Turn off the main switch, press the short espresso button and hold it pressed down, turn on the main switch simultaneously, release the short
espresso button once 2 beeps emitted, the indication light is in red.
• Press the short espresso button to start the pump.
• The machine will run out 2 tanks of water for the decalcification process, after running out the 1st tank of water, there is one "beep" to remind
to fill in the water tank with decalcifying solution to the maximum level, once filled, press the button again, the machine will go on the procedure
automatically, the red light becomes blue once the cycle is finished.
• Repeat the process to Flush out the intern circuit with 2 tank of fresh water (without the decalcifying solution) to clean the internal circuit
completely.
• Turn off the main switch.
• The decalcifying process is completed.
Tips: During decalcifying process, if you need to empty the bowl under the dispenser, you can press the button for pause, press it again to continue.
