To improve the quality of the water you use, and guarantee longer machine life at the same time, it is recommended that you install the "Aquaa Prima" water fi Iter. After installation, go to the fi Iter initialization program (see programming). In this way, the machine advises the user when the fi Iter must be replaced.

Remove the "Aqua Prima" water fi tter from its packaging. Enter the date of the current month.

Insert the fi liter in its place within the empty tank (see fi gure); Press down until it clicks into place.

To perform the automatic descending cycle. Descaling is necessary every 3-4 months when water dispenses more slowly than normal or when the machine indicates it. The machine must be turned on and will automatically manage the distribution of the descending agent.

A PERSON MUST BE PRESENT DURING THE OPERATION.

WARNING! NEVER USE VINEGAR AS A DESCALER.

For the descending process use a non-toxic and/or non-harmful descending solution for coffee machines, commonly available on the market. The used solution is to be disposed of according to the manufacturer's instructions and/or regulations in force in the country of use.

Note: before beginning the descending cycle make sure that:
1. a large enough container is positioned under the water spout;
2. THE "AQUA PRIMA" FILTER HAS BEEN REMOVED.

Descaling is carried out at a controlled temperature. If the machine is cold, you must wait until it has reached the right temperature; otherwise you must cool the boiler as follows:

If the boiler needs to be heated, the machine does so automatically. When the heating stage is complete, the "open water/steam knob" message appears. Then proceed as described in point 5.
