DESCALING

The descaling process takes approx. 30 minutes.
Limescale builds up inside the machine during use. It needs to be removed
regularly as it may clog the water and co ee circuit of your machine. The
machine indicates when descaling is needed. If the light is blinking very
quickly, you need to descale.
Caution:
Not doing this will ultimately make your machine stop working prop-
erly, and in this case repair is NOT covered by your warranty.
Use the Saeco decalci er only. Its formula has been designed to ensure
better machine performance. The Saeco decalci er (CA6700) may be pur-
chased at the Philips online shop at www.shop.philips.com/service, your
local dealer or at authorised service centres.
Warning:
Never drink the decalci er or any products dispensed until the cycle
has been carried out to the end. Never use vinegar as a decalci er.
Note:
During the descaling cycle do not switch o the machine or turn it into the
stand-by mode. Once you start the descling cycle, you cannot exit until the
cycle nishes.
To execute the descaling cycle please follow the steps described below:
1 Before descaling:
- Empty the drip tray;
- Remove the Pannarello (if supplied) from the hot water/steam
wand;

ci er. Then ll the tank with fresh water up to the MAX level.
