days or, if it occurs, change water and dispense without capsule before making the coffee.

2 ....DESCALING CYCLE

The normal use of the machine with natural mineral water, both in bottle and from the
tap, entails the formation of limescale.
It is recommended to carry out the descaling cycle every 300 cups of coffee (otherwise
every 3-4 months) and/or when a constant decrease of the dispensed coffee fl ow is
noticed.
THE FREQUENCY OF THIS OPERATION DEPENDS ON THE HARDNESS OF WATER USED.

suitable for coffee machines) into the water tank (3).
