Care and Cleaning (continued)

Cup warming plate and exterior

Wipe over the unit with a damp cloth and wipe dry. Do not use abrasives or metal scourers as these will scratch the exterior surface.

Steam wand

Keeping the steam arm clean is essential to ensure maximum efficiency of the steam function. A build up of caramelised/dried milk on the steam wand will impair the steaming and texturing ability of the espresso machine. The steam nozzle has been specially designed to be perfectly smooth. This will help to reduce build up of dried milk.

Important: Wipe the steam wand clean with a damp cloth immediately after each use and purge a small amount of steam.

Should the milk dry/caramelise on the steam wand, simply wrap the wand with a clean damp cloth, swing the steam wand over the drip tray and turn the steam on for approximately 10 seconds (41). With the cloth still on the steam wand leave to sit for about 5 minutes and you will find that after this time the dry/caramelised milk will easily wipe away. Repeat process if still dirty.

Important: Never clean the steam wand with an abrasive pad as this will damage the steam wand.

Should the steam wand become blocked, supplied with the espresso machine is a cleaning pin. The cleaning tool is located under the top lid of the water reservoir (39). The cleaning tool has two pins at either end. The thicker, longer pin is for cleaning the steam wand. Insert the cleaning pin into the hole in the base of the steam nozzle (42). Should the steam wand remain blocked unscrew the steam nozzle from the steam wand. Clean the steam nozzle by once again using the cleaning pin then flush under running water.
