General information for using the unit
We recommend that the grill (9), the drip tray (7), the water tank (11), the steam nozzle and air intake opening (8) are cleaned regularly.
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: never immerse the appliance in water or clean in a dishwasher.
The contents of the water tank (11) should be changed regularly.
After changing water, ensure that the suction hose (14) reaches into the inside of the water tank (11).
It is recommended that the machine be decalcified regularly (depending on the hardness of the water) using a decalcification agent specifically developed for espresso machines. (Use no vinegar!)
For perfect espresso enjoyment, it is recommended that the cups are warmed in advance on the cup warmer (13).
