This Service Manual was exactly what I needed to repair my Philips TV. The purchase was convenient and I received the manual at the same day I paid for it.
Very helpful and complete manual. Maybe only one negative is schematics have sometimes unreadable name of the parts. But it's not a big problem.

1. Descaling Operate the appliance twice in the same way as making Espresso, but fill the watertank with vinegar or a 10-15% solution of either vinegar-acid, citric acid or tartaric acid in cold tap water. To remove scale that has set in the inside of the steam pipe, let the appliance produce steam for some time. For persistent scale interrupt the descaling procedure once or twice after pumping and steaming hot vinegar and let the vinegar act on the scale for at least half an hour. Continue the procedure. Clean the outlet plate (item 8) After the descaling procedure, operate the espresso machine twice with tap water in order to rinse away any residual substances.
