Descaling the appliance
Descale the appliance regularly. The appliance should be descaled after about
1- 2 months (at approx. 4 espresso preparations per day). Depending on the
hardness of the water in your area, this figure may differ.
For descaling, use a commercially available descaler for espresso machines.
Proceed as described in the instructions for usage of the descaler.
