Cleaning and care

Drip tray and waste container

Clean the drip tray and waste container every day to avoid unpleasant smells and mildew.

The waste container is located in the drip tray.

The coffee machine will alert you via the display when the drip tray and/or waste container is full and needs to be emptied. Remove the drip tray and waste container and empty and clean them when this message appears, if not before.

TIP If the rinsing process is in progress, wait a while before removing the drip tray as the water used for rinsing will run out of the central spout and the water may overflow.
