Steam wand cleaning (30)

wand by turning it anticlockwise to release
it then pull it downwards.

Descaling
The coffee machine signals when it is
necessary to carry out a descaling cycle based
on the set water hardness (For the setting of the
water hardness, see the "Machine Settings"
paragraph).
If the LED (25) lights up steadily, it means
that a descaling cycle is necessary, so as not
to alter the taste of the coffee and damage the
machine. However, coffee and further drinks
may continue to be dispensed for a limited
number of cycles.
