On such occasions the condition of the fi lter inside the tank must also be checked.
The fi lter can be cleaned with warm water.
Turn slightly to fi t the fi lter back in place.

Cleaning the dreg drawer
Cleaning the dreg drawer
The dreg drawer must be emptied and cleaned every time the machine indi-
cates to do so.
For directions on how to carry out this operation see section 4.7.
In addition, whenever maintenance is performed on the machine it is a good
idea to remove and clean the dreg drawer accordingly.
On such occasions it is also recommended to clean the grills on which the small
and large cups rest.
Check that the cup rest (A) can turn freely without impediments.

Descaling
Descaling
Warning.
Never use vinegar, as this would cause damage to the machine!
Before descaling, the "Aqua Prima" fi lter must be removed from
the water tank.
Descaling serves to remove limescale deposits from surfaces and openings in
the water circuit, thereby keeping the valves, heating controls and other impor-
tant elements in perfect working order.
Important. Given the complexity of the machine water circuit, the
descaling procedure described below is not able to reach all com-
ponents.
A
In fact, components such as the brew unit and the plastic pin/valve con-
necting it are excluded from the cycle.
The descaling procedure must be carried out regularly, every 3 – 4 months. In
areas where the water hardness is very high, we recommend more frequent
descaling.
Should the user not decalcify the machine at the recommended intervals, this
machine is equipped with a special counter that (if activated via the appropriate
menu), according to the quantity of water dispensed, warns of the necessity to
carry out this operation urgently.
In such a case the display will show this message.
When this message appears, the machine will continue to work but should be
descaled as soon as possible.
Go to the service menu as directed in section 10.2 and display the descaling
menu.
Using the appropriate commands, select "Do it now" to launch the descaling
cycle.
Note: the descaling cycle cannot and must not be interrupted.
The machine heats the boiler to the correct temperature for carrying out the de-
calcifi cation cycle properly. If the machine has just been switched on, the boiler
is preheated. If the machine is hot, an automatic cooling cycle is performed,
dispensing water into the drip tray.
