How do I prime my machine for descaling?

Before initiating the descaling process, prepare by placing one Breville Descaling powder sachet into a liter of water and fill the tank with this solution. Press and hold 2-CUP button along with POWER button simultaneously until all lights including POWER, CLEAN/DESCALE indicator and HOT WATER/ STEAM light remain solid, indicating machine is ready for descaling (Page 24).
