Integrated cleaning programme

The cleaning programme for your IMPRESSA F50 can be started in either of two ways:

• With display prompt:

If READY CLEAN lights up in the display, press the Rinse key and hold it down until EMPTY TRAY is displayed.

• Without display prompt:

If READY lights up in the display, press the Rinse key and hold down until EMPTY TRAY is displayed.

• Note: as long as PRESS MAINT. is on view in the display, the cleaning programme cannot be started.
• Tip: always remove the drawer for approx. 10-15 seconds, even if it had already been emptied prior to starting the programme.
• Tip: If the FILL TABLET prompt does not disappear in the display, the powder chute cover has not been closed properly. Close the cover again and the cleaning operation will then resume.

Integrated de-scaling programme

To start the de-scaling programme, switch off the machine.

The de-scaling programme for your IMPRESSA F50 can be started at any time with or without display prompt.

• With display prompt:

If READY SCALED lights up in the display, switch the machine off and hold the Rinse key down until EMPTY TRAY is displayed.

• Without display prompt:

If READY lights up in the display, switch the machine off and hold the Rinse key down until EMPTY TRAY is displayed.

If MACHINE DE-SCALING is displayed for an extended period, the de-scaling programme was started with too much liquid or the water was replenished before the tank was empty.

• Tip: start the de-scaling programme again with 0.5l water. During the programme, the water tank is completely emptied. Please do not refill with water until you are prompted to do so in the display.

If MACHINE DE-SCALING lights up even though the CLARIS plus filter has been inserted, the filter was not programmed.

• Tip: remove the filter and run the de-scaling programme. Then insert a new filter and program the machine correctly.

CLARIS filter change

The filter change programme for your IMPRESSA F50 can be started at any time in either of two ways:

• With display prompt:

If READY FILTER lights up in the display, switch off your machine and hold the Rinse key down until REPLACE OPEN TAP is displayed. Insert the new filter and turn on the tap for dispensing hot water/steam. The IMPRESSA F50 will now begin to rinse the filter.

• Without display prompt:

If READY lights up in the display, switch off your machine and hold the Rinse key down until REPLACE OPEN TAP is displayed. Insert the new filter and turn on the tap for dispensing hot water/steam. The IMPRESSA F50 will now begin to rinse the filter.

• Note: the water may be slightly discoloured, but this is not hazardous to health.
• Tip: if the volume of drinks dispensed is low, the CLARIS filter cartridge should be replaced every two months, even if the prompt to do so does not appear in the display.

Coffee taste and temperature

Coffee taste:

Are you unhappy with the taste of the coffee? If the coffee tastes unpleasant, this could be due to any of the following reasons:

• The de-scaling programme was run with CLARIS filter cartridge inserted. In that case, take out the filter, insert a new one and program the machine accordingly.
• Your coffee beans are "sour". Empty the bean container and fill it with fresh beans.
• Tip: you can program the aroma to suit your particular taste. Press the P key to switch to the Programming mode, where you can choose between AROMA INTENSIVE and STANDARD.
• Tip: when drawing a cup of coffee you have the option of choosing the coffee strength. If you press the key only briefly, you will get a mild coffee/Espresso, if you hold the key down longer you will get a standard strength coffee/Espresso. If you continue to press the key, you will get a strong coffee/Espresso. Make sure you read the message shown in the display!

Coffee temperature:

Is your coffee not hot enough? The following are some commonly found reasons why the coffee might not be hot enough:

• The coffee temperature was not set to HIGH.
• If you are not using a CLARIS filter cartridge, your machine may be furred. Check the water hardness, program this correctly and de-scale the machine.
• Tip: heat up your cup!

Milk foam

The IMPRESSA F50/F70/F90 are supplied with the Professional Cappuccino Frother / Professional fine foam frother as standard.

If the milk is not foamed with the Cappuccino Frother (fine foam frother), the frother is blocked. Remove the frother and clean it thoroughly.

• Please note that the frother must always be cleaned thoroughly after a drink has been dispensed (with froth).
