Descaling
Limescale deposits have an adverse effect not only on the quality of the espresso and the
water, but they also cause power losses and shorten the lifespan of the device. Possible signs
that indicate that descaling is required are a large amount of steam being produced and slower
brewing. The machine indicates when cleaning or descaling is required by lighting up the
yellow light indicator (22). Use anti-scale cleaning agents regularly, every 2-6 weeks, in order
to avoid the machine from blocking and from operating in bad conditions.
