grammed by releasing the button when the amount is
reached.
The programmed coffee supply quantity can be
changed as follows:
Min. 0.5 oz (15 cc)
Max. 8.4 oz (250 cc)
If the dose programming is lower than the permitted
minimum amount of 15 cc, the supply will continue,
when the button is released, until the previously set
dose is reached.
If the dose programming is higher than the permitted
maximum amount of 250 cc, the supply will stop and
the programmed dose will be set to the maximum value.
If the electric power supply fails during a dose pro-
gramming operation, the programming procedure will
have to be repeated.
If, during a dose programming operation, the machine
informs that water is not found in the tank, the dose
programming procedure will have to be repeated after
water is added.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
DESCALING
Carefully read the descaling instructions.
Limescale normally builds up with extended use of
the appliance; the machine needs descaling every 2-3
months and/or whenever a reduction in water flow is
noticed.
The descaling cycle will be requested by the machine
only in the “ready” status, by causing the following
warning lights to illuminate:
ESPRESSO blinking over 1 second
alternatively to a white and orange light.
ESPRESSO LUNGO steady white light.
If no operation is carried out, the machine will be set
to the stand-by mode after nine minutes.
The warning will be displayed each time the machine
leaves the stand-by mode, until when the descaling
operation is carried out.
Never use vinegar as a descaling solution
The cycle will have, once it has been started, to be
performed completely.
Do not switch the machine off when the descaling
cycle is under way.
Do not move away from the machine when the des-
caling cycle Is under way.
Do not drink the descaling solution and products
dispensed until the completion of the cycle.
To decalcify the machine, It Is recommended that the
Lavazza DESCALING agent should be used.
The descaling operation can be enabled only in the
stand-by condition, i.e. when the supply button LEDs
are off.
Check there is no capsule inside the capsule contain-
ing compartment.
Remove and empty the water tank.
Fill the tank with the Lavazza DESCALING agent
8,4 oz (250 ml) and water 8.4 (250 ml).
Use a moist cloth to wipe off the squirts or drops, if
any.
Fit the tank back into place on the machine.
Place a suitable container under the dispenser.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Press both buttons over three to ten seconds.
After the descaling operation has been requested
by pressing the two buttons simultaneously, the
operation CANNOT be cancelled any more and
the descaling cycle will have to be performed to
the end.
The machine will start the warming phase:
ESPRESSO orange light;
ESPRESSO LUNGO white light;
Both buttons will blink (0.5 sec. ON / OFF) until the
warming process is over.
Once the warming process is over, the ESPRESSO
button with a steady orange light will be the
only one available to start the descaling operation.
If no operation is carried out, the machine will be set to
the stand-by mode after nine minutes; moreover, you
will have to repeat the sequence to get access to the
descaling process.
Press the ESPRESSO button to start the desca-
ling cycle.
Pressing the button over a long time will have no ef-
fects on the machine.
The descaling procedure involves supplying 2 oz (60 ml)
of solution alternating with a fifteen seconds‘ pause, until
the tank is emptied.
During the descaling process, the ESPRESSO
button will blink to an orange light (1 sec. ON / OFF).
Once the descaling process has been activated, it
cannot be interrupted until when the machines deliv-
ers the full quantity of descaling solution and water
needed for rinsing.
This means that, if the machine is set to the stand-by
mode owing to a power cut-off, the process will be
resumed from the point where it has been interrupted.
The sequence will be repeated until the “tank empty”
condition is achieved (approximately 15.5 oz/500 ml,
equal to six supply instances).

34
ITEN
Moreover, you can pause the descaling process by
simply pressing the ESPRESSO button.
Pressing the same button will also enable you to restart
the descaling process.
The container used to collect the solution shall be
emptied during the pause times.
The end of the descaling phase will be indicated as
follows:
ESPRESSO steady orange light;
ESPRESSO LUNGO steady white light.
Remove the water tank, rinse and wash it accurately.
Fill it with drinking fresh non-carbonated water up to
the MAX level
Fit the tank back into place on the machine, then
place a suitable container under the dispenser.
Press the ESPRESSO button again to start the
rinsing phase.
During the rinsing phase, the ESPRESSO
button will blink to an orange light.
The rinsing operation will be carried out continu-
ously until an amount of 70 oz (2 litres) of water is
reached.
The tank will have to be filled several times.
If, during the rinsing phase, the tank is found to be
empty, the machine will show the following warn-
ing-lights:
ESPRESSO to a steady orange light;
ESPRESSO LUNGO
to a blinking white light.
Furthermore, you can pause the rinsing process by
simply pressing the ESPRESSO button.
At the end of the rinsing phase, the machine will go
back to the warming phase; after that, it will be ready
to supply.
