What You’ll Need:

  • DeLonghi Descaler solution (or an approved descaling solution)
  • A container to collect water (large enough to hold at least 1 liter)
  • Clean water

Step-by-Step Descaling Process

Step 1: Prepare the Machine

  1. Switch the coffee machine off and unplug it from power.
  2. Remove the water tank and drain any remaining water.
  3. Clean the water tank thoroughly to remove any residue.

Step 2: Add Descaling Solution

  1. The water tank can be filled with fresh water, to a level given by your machine’s user manual.
  2. Fill the water tank with water, adding the recommended quantity of DeLonghi Descaler solution. (Refer to the instructions on the descaler bottle.)
  3. Reinsert the water tank into the machine.

Step 3: Start the Descaling Process

  1. Place a container under the coffee spout and steam wand (if your machine has one) to collect the descaling solution.
  2. Turn the machine on and access the descaling mode:
    • For automatic models: Press the descaling button or follow the descaling sequence as indicated in the user manual.
    • For manual models: Follow the steps for activating the descaling function.
  3. The machine will start dispensing the descaling solution through the spout and steam wand. Allow it to run until the tank is empty.

Step 4: Rinse the System

  1. Once the descaling cycle is complete, empty the container used to collect the descaling solution.
  2. Rinse the water tank thoroughly to remove any residual descaler.
  3. Fill the tank with fresh water and run a rinse cycle:
    • Turn the machine on and allow it to dispense the clean water through the spout and steam wand until the tank is empty.

Step 5: Final Steps

  1. Repeat the rinse process if necessary to ensure all traces of the descaling solution are removed.
  2. Wipe the exterior of the machine with a damp cloth.
  3. Refill the water tank with clean water for your next use.
  4. Resume normal operation.

Tips for Optimal Maintenance

  • Frequency: Descale your machine every 1–3 months, depending on water hardness and usage.
  • Use Filtered Water: This can reduce the buildup of limescale and extend the time between descaling cycles.
  • Monitor Alerts: Many DeLonghi machines have descaling alerts. Follow these to ensure timely maintenance.

By following this procedure, your DeLonghi coffee machine will continue to deliver perfect coffee every time!
