12.3 Descaling

Over time, the continuous heating up of the water used to make the coffee leads to lime scale building up in

the inner circuits of the appliance.

When the appliance displays the message:

DESCALE

you should perform the descale cycle.

Proceed as follows:

• make sure the appliance is ready.

•press the button (the light over the button comes on) then press the button repeatedly until

the appliance displays:

DESCALE NO

•Press and the appliance displays the message:

DESCALE YES

•Press the button to start the descale programme.

• Empty the tank and pour in the contents of one bottle (125 ml) of DURGOL descaler plus one liter of water.

For subsequent descaling operations, descaling solution can be purchased from authorised technical ser-

vice centres.

NB: Make sure splashes of descaler do not fall onto surfaces sensitive to acid such as marble, limestone

and glaze.

• Place a container with a minimum capacity of 1.5 litres under the cappuccino maker (fig. 2);

• The descaling solution will run out of the cappuccino maker and start to fill the container underneath

• The descale programme automatically performs a series of run offs and pauses to remove lime scale

deposits from inside the coffee maker.

• After about 30 minutes, the appliance displays:

RINSING fill water tank

The appliance must now be rinsed through to eliminate residues of descaling solution from inside the applian-

ce. Proceed as follows:

• Remove the water tank, rinse and fill with clean water.

• Reposition the tank: the appliance display rinsing press OK.

• Empty the collection container (under the cappuccino maker) full of liquid and then put it back under the

cappuccino maker.

•Press the OK button (fig. 17).

Hot water is run off from the cappuccino maker into the container below and the appliance displays:

RINSING

• When the water tank is empty, the appliance displays the message:

RINSE COMPLETE press OK button

•Press the OK button (fig. 17) and refill the water tank with clean water.

• The descale programme is now terminated and the appliance is ready to make coffee again.

NOTE: if the descaling cycle is interrupted before completion, the appliance continues to display the descale

message and the programme must be started again from the beginning.

IMPORTANT: : FAILURE TO DESCALE THE APPLIANCE REGULARLY INVALIDATES THE GUARANTEE.
