the main boiler” section (page 15) and follow the process stated
in the “Dispensing boiling water through the steam boiler”

with cold water (either manually or automatically) and then
dispense water until the reservoir is empty again.
o You should do this twice to make sure that there are no traces of
citric acid or vinegar left in the water reservoir.

available from supermarkets or D.I.Y. stores. Please refer to the
