Important: The coffee waste container
indicator will remain illuminated while the
cleaning process is running. The programme
carries out 6 cycles with fresh water flushing.
Pause times are for the cleaning tablet to
take effect. In case of a power failure the
programme has to be started again.
• The cleaning process is finished after
approximately 8 minutes and when the
‘CLEAN’ indicator is illuminated and the
coffee waste container indicator flashes.
• Empty the coffee waste container and
reinsert it so that the coffee waste
container indicator extinguishes. Turn the
coffee bean hopper to the desired position
and fill the water reservoir.
• Press the one cup or two cup coffee
button and discard/pour away this first cup
after running the cleaning programme. You
are now ready for operation again.
Important: Take care when removing the coffee
waste container as the water may be hot.
Starting the cleaning programme (continued)
Starting the descaling programme
The descaling programme allows for simple
and effective descaling of the espresso
machine. Scale is a surface build up of
minerals that naturally occur over time in all
appliances that are involved with the heating
of water.
The Café Barista™ should be descaled
at regular intervals of 4 – 6 months, at
the latest however when the ‘DESCALE’
indicator begins flashing. The descaling
process is carried out in 2 phases, takes 45
minutes and should not be interrupted. If
the programme is interrupted, the descaling
process has to be started again.
Important: Prior to starting the descaling
programme, clean the coffee brewing unit
and empty the coffee waste container.
Important: Use Sunbeam descaling tablets
only. If using other descaling agents,
Sunbeam will not be liable for any damage.
Never use vinegar, citric acid or sulfamic acid or descaling agents containing sulfamic acid
as these agents may damage the espresso
machine.
Sunbeam descaling tablets are available from
selected appliance retailers or from Sunbeam
on 1800 025 059.
Phase 1: Descaling
• Fill the water reservoir with approximately
400mL of warm water until the level is just
below the grooves of the reservoir lid and
put a descaling tablet into the reservoir.
See figure 59. Re-insert the reservoir when
the tablet has dissolved, this takes about
5 -7 minutes.
• Pull the empty coffee waste container out
and position below the espresso pour spout
so that the descaling solution is collected
in the coffee waste container. The coffee
waste container indicator will illuminate
as long as the container is pulled out. See
figure 60.
