TO DELIME WATER RESERVOIR:

1.Make sure the control knob is in the center OFF position and that the power cord is disconnected from the electrical outlet.

2.If the appliance is cool and the pressure has been released, (See Section “CAUTION: PRESSURE” on Page 3) remove the reservoir cap and pour 8 ounces of fresh, undiluted white household vinegar into the water reservoir.

3.Allow appliance to sit overnight with the vinegar solution in the water reservoir.

4.Discard vinegar through the top opening of the Espresso Maker by turning the machine upside down over the sink.

5.Rinse the water reservoir thoroughly with tap water by filling tank half full with water and then pouring the water back out into the sink, repeating this step twice.

TO DELIME INTERNAL PARTS:

1.Make sure you delime the inside of the water reservoir first by following Step 5 under the “Deliming” section on the bottom of Page 9.

2.Make sure all controls are OFF, the power cord is disconnected from the electrical outlet, the appliance is cool and all pressure in the appliance has been released. (See Section “CAUTION: PRESSURE” on Page 3) Remove the cap and pour 8 ounces of fresh undiluted white household vinegar into the water reservoir.

3.Screw the cap back on top of the water reservoir. Make sure the cap is on tight.

4.Insert the filter holder into the brew head and place the glass carafe with lid on the drip tray.

5.Plug the power cord into the electrical outlet.

6.Place a cup with cold water under the frothing tube. Turn the control knob to the “cup” position. When vinegar begins to flow into the carafe, insert the frothing tube and frothing aid into the water and slowly turn the control knob to the “steam” position. After a few seconds turn the control knob to the OFF position. This will clean any residue left in the frothing tube from frothing milk.

7.Turn the control knob to the “cup” position. When all the vinegar has been pumped into the carafe and the flow has stopped, turn the control knob to OFF and allow the appliance to cool.

8.Repeat Steps 1 – 7 using only tap water to rinse any remaining traces of vinegar out of the machine. Repeat this rinsing process twice, allowing the machine to cool and pressure to be released before each rinsing.

CARAFE CLEANING

Hard water can leave a whitish mineral deposit inside the carafe. Coffee discolors these deposits, sometimes leaving a brownish stain inside the carafe. To remove these stains, follow these simple steps:

1.Use a solution of equal parts white vinegar and hot water.

2.Let solution stand in carafe for about 20 minutes and then discard.

3.Wash and rinse the carafe thoroughly using a soft cloth. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners. These may cause scratches which can lead to breakage.
