Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning the filter holder

About every 300 coffees or when the coffee drips out of the filter holder or not at all, clean the ground coffee filter holder as fol- lows:

Remove the filter from the filter holder.

Rinse all components and clean the metal filter thoroughly in hot water using a brush (fig. 20).

Make sure the holes in the metal filter are not blocked. If neces-

sary, clean with a pin (see fig. 21).

Failure to clean as described above invalidates the guarantee.

Cleaning the espresso boiler outlet

At least twice a year, the espresso boiler outlet must be cleaned as follows:

Check that the coffee machine is not warm and the plug is removed from the mains.

Using a screwdriver, unscrew the screw that holds the outlet of the espresso boiler (fig. 22).

Clean the boiler with a damp cloth (fig. 23).

Clean the outlet thoroughly in hot water using a brush. Make sure the holes are not blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin.

Rinse the outlet under the tap, still scrubbing it.

Replace the outlet of the espresso boiler ensuring the screw is replaced firmly.

Failure to clean as described above invalidates the guaran- tee.

Other cleaning operations

1.Do not use solvents or detergents when cleaning the coffee maker. Use a soft, damp cloth.

2.Remove the drip-trays, empty them and wash them periodically

ATTENTION: during cleaning, never immerse the unit in water – it is an electrical appliance.
