Cleaning the boiler outlet
After every 200 coffees, rinse the boiler outlet by delivering
about 0.5 l / 17 oz of water from the boiler outlet.
Cleaning the water tank
1. Clean the water tank regularly (about once a month) and
whenever you replace the water softener filter (C7, *if used)
with a damp cloth and a little mild washing up liquid;
2. Remove the filter (*if present) and rinse with running
water;
3. Replace the filter (*if provided), fill the tank with fresh
water and replace the tank.
DESCALING
We recommend descaling the coffee maker about every 200
coffees. We recommend using the De'Longhi descaler (purchase
separately).
Proceed as follows:
1. Fill the tank with the descaler solution, obtained by dilut-
ing the descaler with water up to the max level;
2. Turn the selector dial to the ON position;
