8. Wipe the coffee grinds chute disc (the entire stainless steel part) to remove any build-up of coffee grinds that have accumulated on the surface. Dry thoroughly.

10.Replace the bean hopper and lock into position.

11.Replace the coffee basket onto the swing-out door and close. The coffee grinds chute will rotate back to the closed position. You may hear a winding sound, this is normal.

Cleaning the Grinds Catcher and Drip Tray

Press the OPEN button to open the swing-out door. Remove the grinds catcher located under the coffee grinds chute and the 2-part drip tray at the base of the machine. Wash in warm, soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or cloths which can scratch the surface. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the Outer Housing

The outer housing and LCD screen can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Apply cleanser to the cloth and not the LCD surface. Polish with a soft, dry cloth. Cleaning and drying with dry paper towels or abrasive cloths and cleaners may scratch the surface.

CARE & CLEANING

Removing Calcium Build-Up

Your coffee machine may experience build-up from calcium and minerals contained in your water. This ‘scale’ or mineral build-up will affect the machine’s performance and coffee quality. It is critical that scale build-up be removed. How often you de-scale will depend on the hardness of your water and the frequency of use.

For best results, Breville recommends de-scaling once per month in soft water environments and more frequently in hard water environments.

If there is an excessive mineral build-up, the LCD screen will display ‘DE-SCALE’.

Remove the ‘DE-SCALE’ icon by pressing the SINGLE CUP and CARAFE button together, then follow these steps:

1. Empty the Water Tank

•Press the CARAFE button to select the number of cups of water that remain in the water tank.

•Press the STRENGTH button and the and buttons to select the ‘PRE-GROUND’ coffee setting. However do not add any coffee to the coffee basket.

•Ensure the carafe is empty and the lid is securely locked. Place the carafe into position under the drip stop outlet.

•Press the START CANCEL button.

•Once the cycle is complete, discard the water from the carafe. The water tank is now empty.

2. De-Scale the Machine

•Pour white vinegar into the water tank until the LCD screen displays ‘4 CUPS’. Then pour cold, preferably filtered water into the water tank until the LCD screen displays ‘12 CUPS’. There are now 4 cups of white vinegar and 8 cups of cold water in the water tank.

•Press the CARAFE button to select ‘12 CUPS’.

•Press the STRENGTH button and the and buttons to select the ‘PRE-GROUND’ coffee setting. However do not add any coffee to the coffee basket.

•Ensure the carafe is empty and the lid is completely closed. Place the carafe into position under the drip stop outlet.

•Press the START CANCEL button.

•Once the cycle is complete, discard the water from the carafe. For best results, repeat this process.

3. Rinse the Machine

Follow the de-scaling process (Step 2) with two full tanks of water or until the vinegar is gone. The machine is now ready to use.

TIP

You may choose to use a domestic de-scaling agent instead of vinegar and water. Look for one that is designed for use with drip coffee machines. Follow the de-scaler to water proportions

on the de-scaler packaging, however follow the above procedure.
