Cleaning and care

Drip tray

There is a sensor in the drip tray which causes a message to appear in the display when the drip tray is full and needs to be emptied. Remove the tray and empty and clean it when this message appears.

However, to avoid a build-up of odours, the drip tray should be cleaned every day.

After running the last rinse you should leave the drip tray in position for a while before cleaning it so that you catch any remaining water from the system.

Take care when removing the drip tray as the water can be very hot. Danger of scalding.

^Open the machine front, and carefully remove the drip tray from the machine.

The grid in the drip tray prevents the water from spilling out of the tray when it is being carried.

^Clean the drip tray and the grid with hot water and a little washing-up liquid, or in the dishwasher and dry with a cloth.

Make sure that the metal contact discs at the top of the drip tray are cleaned and dried properly. These metal discs send a signal to the machine when the drip tray is full or if it is not in the machine. The discs will not convey these messages if they are dirty or damp.

^Push the drip tray with the grid along the right hand edge back into the machine.

^Close the front of the machine.
