WATER RESERVOIR
• If the machine is not used for long periods, change the water in the reservoir and
drain the boiler by pressing the coffee button several times.
• Clean the water reservoir periodically .
• The water reservoir can be washed in a dishwasher.
• When using the Brita filter, replace it after approximately 2000 cups of coffee or at
least every three months.
CLEANING CYCLE OF THE BOILER
• This coffee machine is an appliance using water, therefore it is normal that some
limescale can form in its boiler.
• It is reco mmended to carry out the following operations every six months:
• Fill up the water reservoir with 2 litres of water adding half a glass of vinegar or
citric acid.
• Carry out the same operations as preparing some cups of coffee (refer to the
previous Chapter “Coffee”), and some cups of hot water until the reservoir is
completely empty.
• Fill the reservoir again with cold water and repeat the above process to rinse the
boiler.
