Descaling procedure

Please use Philips descaler only. Under no circumstances should you use a descaler based on
sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, sulfamic or acetic acid (vinegar) as this may damage the water
circuit in your machine and not dissolve the limescale properly. Not using the Philips descaler
will void your warranty. Failure to descale the appliance will also void your warranty. You can
buy Philips descaling solution in the online shop at www.saeco.com/care.
1 When the machine asks you to descale it, press the start/stop
descaling without being prompted by the machine, tap the Clean
'Descale' (Fig. 40).
