REMOVING HARD WATER MINERAL DEPOSITS
If you live in an area with hard water, mineral and calcium deposits (from the
hard water) will accumulate and will adversely affect the operation of your
Mega Cocina® Espresso and Cappuccino Maker. Therefore, this appliance
should be cleaned with distilled vinegar every 3-6 months to remove the
mineral deposits.
• Before cleaning your Mega Cocina® Espresso and Cappuccino Maker,
make sure the control knob is in the OFF position and the appliance has
been disconnected from the wall outlet.
• Fill the carafe with distilled vinegar and pour the vinegar into the water
reservoir.
• Fasten the safety lid.
• Attach the filter holder and filter basket.
• Place carafe on detachable drip plate.
• Plug your Mega Cocina® Espresso and Cappuccino Maker into a 110-120
volt AC electrical outlet.
• Turn the Control Knob to the BREW position. In a few minutes, the heated
vinegar will start to flow through the filter into the carafe.
• Place the steam nozzle into a tall glass or mug. Move the control knob to the
MAXIMUM STEAM setting for a few seconds during the brewing process.
This will remove any milk residue from the steam nozzle.
• Turn the control knob to the BREW position to close the stem nozzle and to
allow the hot vinegar to continue to flow into the carafe.
