Cleaning the internal boiler
It is recommended to thoroughly clean the boiler about every
three months, using a dishwasher detergent tab (without added
rinse aid or other chemical additives) as follows:
1. Put a dishwasher detergent tab into the pod holder (without
espresso) when the machine is hot (after heating for at least
five minutes).
2. Connect the pod holder to the machine and put a container
underneath.
3. Pull the control lever forward toward the coffee cup symbol,
and dispense water for 15–20 seconds.
4. Stop the water supply and let the tab act for at least 15
minutes while keeping the holder coupled on the machine.
5. Repeat the water dispensing operation by operating the
pump for about 15–20 seconds, and then letting it rest for
another 15–20 seconds, until two tanks of water are used
up.
6. Remove the pod holder from the machine and rinse it under
running water.
7. Turn off the machine, disconnect the power cable from
outlet and clean the coupling seat with a sponge to remove
any detergent residue.
8. Turn the machine back on, insert the pod holder once again
and dispense at least 2 cups of water to complete the
rinsing.
NOTE: If machine is used daily, it is advisable to carry out the
cleaning operation at least every three months.
Cleaning the housing
Clean the housing using a damp, non-abrasive cloth.
Decalcification
Decalcification refers to the removal of calcium deposits that
form over time on the metal parts of the espresso maker. The
frequency with which you need to decalcify will depend on the
hardness of your tap water and how often you use the machine.
To ensure optimum performance, decalcify the machine after
approximately 200 coffees.
