Descaling
Descaling signal: when warning light E blinks YELLOW and the machine beeps 3 times, a
descaling cycle should be carried out, as illustrated below.
The machine features an advanced program that monitors how much water is used
to dispense beverages. This measurement provides the user with indications as to
when the machine needs to be descaled.
It is advisable to use the Caffi taly System descaling agent. It is designed to comply with
the technical characteristics of the machine, in full observance of consumer safety. The
descaling agent must be disposed of in compliance with manufacturer instructions
and/or with current regulations in force in the country where the appliance is used.
CAREFULLY read the directions for use on the packaging of the descaling agent.
Avoid contact with eyes, skin and machine surfaces. Switch the machine off during
descaling, and do not lift the lever. A person must be present during the operation.
Do not use vinegar: it could damage your appliance!
• Switch the machine off by pressing the power on/off switch (Fig. 14).
• Empty and rinse out the used capsule drawer and drip tray (Fig. 6).
• Remove and empty the water tank (Fig. 5).
• Mix the contents of a bottle of Caffi taly System descaling agent with approximately
750 cc. of water (a total of 1 litre) and pour into the tank.
• Place a container (at least 1 litre) under the dispensing spout (Fig. 9).
• Make sure that the lever is lowered (Fig. 3) and there is not a capsule inside the capsule
compartment.
• Press and hold buttons A and B while switching the machine on by pressing the power
on/off switch.
• Button B will light up, while warning light E blinks YELLOW and RED alternately.
• Press button B to start the descaling cycle.
• The machine dispenses the descaling solution at intervals (5 doses with a 4-minute
pause between each one, for a total duration of about 25 minutes). During this step,
when the buttons must not be pressed, warning light E blinks YELLOW and RED
alternately.
• When the fi rst phase is over, button B lights up and the machine beeps repeatedly. The
water tank is empty.
• Carefully rinse out the water tank and refi ll it with fresh water (Fig. 4).
• Empty and rinse the used capsule drawer, the drip tray and the container used and put
them back in place (Fig. 15).
• Press button B to start the rinse cycle.
• Rinse water (about 500 ml) will be run through the machine. During this step, warning
light E blinks alternately (twice YELLOW and twice RED).
• When the rinse cycle is complete, the machine beeps and buttons A-B-C blink
simultaneously; the machine is warming up. When the buttons turn on and remain steadily
lit, the appliance is ready for use.
• Carefully empty and rinse out the water tank and refi ll it with fresh, still water (Fig. 4).
• Empty and rinse out the used capsule drawer and drip tray (Fig. 6).
