Do not close the steam release knob before all steam is released or machine has been turned “off“!

(see section CAUTION - PRESSURE).

ATTENTION:

The top closure of the “Perfect Froth“ attachment (see figure 18, part A). has a very fine hole which draws air into the milk. If this tiny hole gets clogged, “Perfect Froth“ will not work properly. Therefore, never immerse the top closure in milk or froth.

Cleaning

Before cleaning, turn “off” the machine, unplug it, and allow it to cool down.

The filter holder, filter basket, carafe, carafe lid, and overflow grid can be put in the dishwasher’s upper rack, away from the heating/drying element.

The machine can be wiped clean by using a damp cloth. Never immerse the body of your “Il Caffè Duomo” in water or any other liquid. Clean the brewing head with a damp cloth and remove ground coffee. If there is water left in the boiler chamber, let the machine cool down, remove all loose parts and empty through the top opening by turning upside down.

Cleaning the Steam Nozzle

Clean the steam nozzle each time after you have immersed it in the milk, otherwise the inside of the nozzle becomes clogged and the milk deposits on the outside harden and become difficult to remove.

■If clogging does occur, unscrew the tip of the steam nozzle (see figure 16).

Remove all milk particles using a sewing needle and rinse under the faucet. Replace nozzle tip making sure to screw it on tightly. Wipe off the outside of the nozzle with a wet cloth. Hold the wet cloth very close to the tip of the nozzle and open the steam valve.

Let the steam escape into the wet cloth for one or two seconds, then close the valve. Any milk residue will then be flushed out.

Cleaning the “Perfect Froth“ Attachment

■For a thorough cleaning of the “Perfect Froth” attachment, remove part C (see figure 18).

All parts should be rinsed in warm water. If the small suction opening in part A is clogged up, it can be opened with a fine needle.

Cleaning the Drip Tray

■The overflow grid can be cleaned by removing the grid (see figure 19).

CAUTION

Do not try to open or disassemble the main body of the machine.

Decalcifying of the espresso machine

The espresso machine must be decalcified regularly. The frequency depends on the hardness of your water and how often you use the espresso machine.

Before descaling, the brewing sieve on the brewing head must first be screwed off.

1.Remove all lime and coffee residues from the brewing sieve and the brewing head.

2.Pull off the “Perfect Froth“ attachment.

For ecological and health reasons, we recommend the exclusive use of biological materials such as citric acid, which can be obtained from KRUPS Consumer Service Department or drugstores.

3.Dissolve 2 tablespoonfuls of citric acid in 10 fluid ounces of lukewarm water and pour it into the boiler container. Put one receptacle under the brewing head and another under the steam nozzle.

(Note: Do not use the filter holder during decalcification)

4.Open the steam valve and turn on the appliance. Allow the descaling solution to run out of the espresso outlet and the steam nozzle.

5.After each brewing cycle, switch off the appliance and allow the appliance to cool down.
