The provided water lter helps prevent scale
build-up in and on many of the inner functioning
components. Replacing the water lter after
three months or 40L will reduce the need to
descale the machine.
The limitation of 40L is based on water hardness
level 4. If you are in level 2 area, you can increase
this to 60L.
CLEANING CYCLE
The CLEAN ME light will illuminate when a
cleaning cycle is required. This is a back-
ushing cycle and is separate from descaling.
1. Insert the 1 CUP lter basket into the
portalter, followed by the supplied cleaning
disc, followed by 1 cleaning tablet.
2. Lock the portalter into the group head
and place a large container beneath the
portalter spouts.
3. Ensure the water tank is lled with cold water
and the drip tray is empty.
4. Press the POWER button to switch the
machine o.
5. Press the 1 CUP and 2 CUP buttons
simultaneously, then also press the POWER
button. Hold all 3 buttons together for
approximately 10 seconds.
6. The cleaning cycle will commence and last
for approximately 5 minutes. During this
time, water will intermittently ow from the
portalter spouts. Once complete, 3 beeps
will sound.
7. Remove the portalter and ensure the tablet
has completely dissolved. If the tablet has not
dissolved, repeat until the tablet has dissolved.
DESCALING
After regular use, hard water can cause mineral
build up in and on many of the inner functioning
components, reducing the brewing ow, brewing
temperature, power of the machine, and taste
of the espresso.
1. Even if you are correctly using the water lter
provided, we recommend you to descale when
you see scale build-up in the water tank.
WARNING
Do not immerse power cord, power plug
or appliance in water or any other liquid.
The water tank should never be removed
or completely emptied during descaling.
