The provided water filter helps prevent
scale build-up in and on many of the inner
functioning components. Replacing the
water filter after three months or 40L will
reduce the need to descale the machine.
The limitation of 40L is based on water
hardness level 4. If you are in level 2 area,
you can increase this to 60L.

CLEANING CYCLE
The CLEAN ME light will illuminate
when a cleaning cycle is required. This
is a back-flushing cycle and is separate
from descaling.
1. Insert the 1 CUP filter basket into
the portafilter, followed by the
supplied cleaning disc, followed by
1 cleaning tablet.
2. Lock the portafilter into the group head
and place a large container beneath the
portafilter spouts.
3. Ensure the water tank is filled with cold
water and the drip tray is empty.

simultaneously, then also press the
POWER button. Hold all 3 buttons
together for approximately 10 seconds.
6. The cleaning cycle will commence and
last for approximately 5 minutes. During this
time, water will intermittently flow
from the portafilter spouts. Once complete,
3 beeps will sound.
7. Remove the portafilter and ensure the tablet
has completely dissolved. If the tablet has
not dissolved, repeat until the tablet has
dissolved.
DESCALING
After regular use, hard water can cause
mineral build up in and on many of the inner
functioning components, reducing
the brewing flow, brewing temperature, power
of the machine, and taste of the espresso.
1. Even if you are correctly using the water filter
provided, we recommend you to descale
when you see scale build-up
in the water tank.
WARNING
Do not immerse power cord, power plug
or appliance in water or any other liquid. The
water tank should never be removed
or completely emptied during descaling.
