CLEANING THE OUTER HOUSING & CUP WARMING TRAY
•The outer housing and cup warming tray can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Polish with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or cloths which can scratch the surface.
NOTE
Hot Water' position. The heating light will flash then illuminate completely. Condensed water may purge from the Steam Wand before steam starts to flow. Allow steam to run through the Steam Wand for approximately 2 minutes then turn the Selector Control back to the center 'Standby' position.
• If any of the mixture remains in the |
Water Tank, allow it to run through the |
Group Head. |
•If the hole(s) remain blocked, dissolve a cleaning tablet in hot water and soak the Filter and Portafilter in the solution for approx. 20 minutes. Rinse thoroughly. Cleaning tablets can be purchased by contacting Breville Consumer Service.
NOTE
Your espresso machine comes with Dual Wall Filters. While these Filters regulate the pressure and help to optimize the extraction regardless of the grind, dose, tamp pressure or coffee freshness, they may become blocked over time. As you become more experienced, consider trying Single Wall Filters. These allow you to experiment with grind, dose and tamp to create a more balanced espresso. They can be purchased by contacting Breville Consumer Service.
CLEANING THE DRIP &
STORAGE TRAY
•The Drip Tray should be removed, emptied and cleaned after each use (after the auto purge feature, see page 18) or when the Drip Tray is showing Empty Me!
•Remove the Grid from the Drip Tray. Wash both in warm soapy water. The Empty Me! indicator can also be removed from the Drip Tray.
•The Storage Tray can be removed and cleaned with a soft, damp cloth (do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or cloths which can scratch the surface).
Do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or cloths which can scratch the surface. Do not clean any of the parts or accessories in the dishwasher.
DECALCIFYING
After regular use, hard water can cause mineral build up in and on many of the inner functioning components, reducing the brewing flow, brewing temperature, power of the machine, and taste of the espresso. We advise decalcifying the machine every month and especially if not using the machine for an extended period eg. before going on vacation.
•Remove the Portafilter.
•Pour a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar and cold tap water into the Water Tank.
•Place a large container beneath the Group Head and Steam Wand.
•Ensure the heating light is not flashing.
•Turn the Selector Control to the right 'Espresso' position. A pumping noise will be heard. After a few seconds, water will flow. Once half the decalcifying mixture has run through the Group Head, turn the Selector Control back to the center 'Standby' position.
•Press the Steam button then turn the Selector Control to the left 'Steam/
• In harder water environments, we |
recommend repeating this cycle. |
• After decalcifying, remove the Water |
Tank, rinse thoroughly then refill with |
fresh cold water only. To rinse the |
machine, repeat the steps above. |
