Decalcifying
Hard water can cause limestone build
up in and on the inner functioning
components, reducing the brewing
flow, power of the appliance, and
affecting the quality of coffee.
We advise decalcifying the appliance
on a regular basis (once a month)
using a liquid decalcifying agent.
Follow the instructions provided or use
the following as a guide:
Diluted solution (for softer water)
• 1 part decalcifying agent
• 2 parts cold tap water
Concentrated solution
(for harder water)
• 1 part decalcifying agent
• 1 part cold tap water
Decalcifying the appliance
• Ensure the Selector Control is
in the ‘STANDBY’ position, the
appliance is switched off at the
power outlet and that the plug
is disconnected.
• Ensure the appliance is cool
and all steam pressure in the
appliance has been released.
• Remove the stainless steel filter
from the filter holder and place
the filter holder back in position.
• Place an empty cup on the drip
tray, under the filter holder.
• Remove the water tank cap and
pour in the decalcifying solution.
• Screw the water tank cap back
on (make sure the cap is on tight).
• Plug the appliance into the
power outlet and turn the power
switch on.
• Turn the Selector Control to the
‘BREW’ position and allow
the decalcifying solution to run
through the filter holder.
• When the solution has run through
the appliance (make sure that
all the solution has run out and
there is no steam pressure in the
appliance), turn the Selector
Control to the ‘STANDBY’ position,
switch off at the power outlet and
remove the plug and allow the
appliance to cool.
• After decalcifying, rinse the
water tank thoroughly and refill
with cold tap water.
• Repeat the above procedures
several times by running clear the
water through the filter holder and
through the steam nozzle (half
each). This should remove any
possible residual after taste left by
decalcifying agent.
• Replace the stainless steel filter
and the appliance is ready to use.
NOTE: The stainless steel
filters should not come in
contact with any decalcifying
agents. Do not use powdered
decalcifying agents.
WARNING: To avoid
possible burns from
hot steam and water,
never open the water
tank cap while there is
pressure in the water
tank. Remove all
pressure first.
