Rinsing phase
10.
Important:
For the rinsing phase, fill the water tank
up to the MAX mark
with cold tap water. Otherwise the machine cannot complete the rinsing
phase.
11. Place an empty container (at least 250 ml) beneath the coffee spout.
12. Press the yellow coffee button to start
rinsing. The On/Off button lights up and
the middle coffee button flashes.
13. Approx. 600 ml water will be rinsed through the system. Keep an eye on the
container and empty it before it overflows.
14. To finish, three signals will sound, all buttons will flash 3 times, the indicator
light flashes red 3 times and the machine will automatically switch to standby
mode. The On/Off button, coffee buttons and indicator light will go out.
The descaling process is completed.
For a long period of non-use
If you will not be using the machine for a prolonged period, e.g. when you go on
holiday, we recommend for reasons of hygiene that you should drain the water
from the machine’s pipes. The machine must be warmed up before doing so:
1. Press the On/Off button to switch the
machine on.
The On/Off button and the coffee buttons
flash and the machine starts heating up.
Once all the buttons stay lit up...
If you are using a different descaling agent, read the manufacturer’s instruc-
m
tions.
Important:
Add descaling solution
up to the MAX mark
and reinsert
the tank.
2. Fold down the lever.
3. Remove the drip tray if necessary.
4. Place a container with a capacity of at least 250 ml under the coffee spout.
You will need to empty this container several times during the descaling phase.
5. Press and hold the On/Off button for
approx. 5 seconds.
6. Release the button. The On/Off button and
indicator light will flash.
7. Press the On/Off button again to start
descaling. The descaling phase begins.
The white coffee button will flash.
The machine pumps descaling solution into the pipes several times at 5-minute
intervals. Each time about 125 ml is dispensed into the container.
8. Pour out the dispensed water each time to ensure that the container does
not overflow.
Once finished, the white coffee button will go
out and the yellow coffee button lights up.
Two signals will sound.
9. Pull the water tank straight up and out of the machine. Thoroughly clean the
water tank as described in the chapter “Cleaning” / section “Thoroughly
cleaning the water tank weekly”.
A rinsing phase will now start.
