DESCALING
A. Descaling
To know if you must descale your machine, plug your machine in the socket:
- If the lights blink 10 times, it is time to descale
- If the lights blink only 1 time, wait for the descaling alert before descaling
Descaling will help prolong the product lifespan. The coffee maker will not be repaired if:
- Descaling is not carried out,
- There are scale deposits,
- The accessories have been washed in a dishwasher, as this is not covered under the
guarantee.

right until it stops (10).
2. Place a container with a volume of minimum 1/2 liter under the portafilter (11).
