Cleaning the drip tray

Cleaning the water tank Important! If the drip tray is not emptied regularly, the water could overflow from the edge and seep inside or around the machine. This could damage the machine, the surface it rests on or the surrounding area.

The drip tray is fitted with a level indicator (red) showing the level of water it contains (fig. 37). Before the indicator protrudes from the cup tray, the drip tray must be emptied and cleaned.

To remove the tray:

1.Open the service door (fig. 35);

2.Remove the drip tray and the grounds container (Fig. 36);

3.Empty the drip tray and grounds container (A18) and wash them;

4.Replace the drip tray complete with grounds container (A18);

5.Close the service door.

Cleaning the water tank

1.Clean the water tank (A13) regularly (about once a month) with a damp cloth and a little mild dish soap.

2.Clean to remove all soap residues, then rinse the water tank thoroughly.

Cleaning the coffee nozzles

1.Clean the nozzle periodically using a sponge or cloth (fig. 38).

2.Check regularly that the holes in the coffee spout are not blocked.

If necessary, remove coffee deposits with a toothpick (fig. 39).

Cleaning the pre-ground coffee feed funnel

Check regularly (about once a month ) that the pre-ground coffee funnel is not blocked. If necessary, remove coffee deposits with a dull knife.

Cleaning the coffee nozzles Danger of electric shock! Before perform- ing any cleaning operations, the machine must be turned off and disconnected from the main power supply. Never immerse the coffee maker in water.

Cleaning the inside of the machine

1.Check regularly (about once a week) that the inside of the machine is not dirty. If neces- sary, remove coffee deposits with a dull knife and sponge.

2.Remove the residues with a vacuum cleaner

(fig. 40).

Cleaning the brew group

The brew group must be cleaned at least once a month.

Cleaning the pre-ground coffee feed funnel Important! The brew group (A8) must not be removed when the appliance is on. Do not attempt to use force to remove the brew group as this could damage the machine.

1.Make sure the machine is correctly turned off (see Turning off, page 31).

2.Open the service door (fig. 35);

3.Remove the drip tray and grounds container

(fig. 36);

4.Press the two red release buttons inwards and at the same time pull the brew group outwards (fig. 41).

Cleaning the inside of the machine Important! Do not use detergents or liq- uid soap to clean the brew group. The detergent would remove the lubricant applied to the inside of the piston, causing the brew group to seize up and become unusable.

5.Soak the brew group in water for about 5 minutes, then rinse under the tap.

6.After cleaning, replace the brew group by sliding it onto the internal support and pin at the bottom, then push the PUSH symbol fully in until it clicks into place.
