Check periodically to see if the cartridge drawer
is full in order to prevent malfunction and dam-
age to the machine.
DECALCIFICATION
The formation of calcium or lime is a normal
consequence of using the machine; decalcifica-
tion/descaling should be done after every 3 or 4
months of usage and/or when a reduced flow of
water is noticed.
Decalcification can be done using a decalcification
product for coffee-makers of the non-toxic harm-
less type commonly found on the market.
Do not under any circumstances use vinegar as a
decalcification solution.
Empty the tank and fill it with a decalcification
product dissolved in water as specified on the
decalcification package, turn on the machine
and place a container under the spout.
Press the coffee dispenser button and fill a cup-
ful.
Turn off the machine, let it sit for 10 -15 minutes
and repeat operations [2] and [3] until the tank is
empty.
Wash and fill the tank with fresh drinking water,
reposition it and place a container under the
spout.
Wait until the machine heats up, press the coffee
dispenser button and let it run until the tank is
