PRESSURE - CHECKING AND RELEASING
Pressure Checking
1. Switch Espresso and Caffe switches to the “OFF” position and unplug the
appliance from the electrical outlet.
2. Carefully open the steam release valve by slowly turning the knob
counterclockwise. If steam comes out of the nozzle the boiler is still
under pressure.
3. If there is pressure, close the steam release valve and proceed as follows to
release the pressure.
Pressure Releasing
1. Hold a pitcher of water under the steam wand and immerse the frothing nozzle
into the water.
2. Slowly open the steam release valve and allow the steam to vent into the water.
3. When the steam wand stops releasing steam slowly open the boiler cap.
CLEANING YOUR 3 IN 1 COFFEE CENTER - GENERAL
1. Position all switches to “OFF” position, unplug from electrical outlet and allow
the entire unit to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Remove and discard used espresso grounds and disposable filter containing
used coffee grounds. Clean brewing head with a damp cloth.
3. Remove and clean the espresso filter holder, filter cup, brew basket, overflow
grid, grid base, carafes and covers in a solution of warm water and mild liquid
soap. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
4. If there is water left in the boiler chamber or the coffee water reservoir, empty
through the top opening of the unit by turning upside down. Note: Do not clean
the inside of the water reservoir or boiler chamber with a cloth or paper toweling
as this may leave particles in the chambers that may clog small openings in your
coffeemaker. You only need to rinse with cold water periodically.
5. Remove rubber-frothing nozzle from the steam wand. Clean the frothing nozzle
and the steam wand thoroughly with a solution of warm water and mild liquid
soap. Rinse thoroughly and replace the rubber-frothing nozzle onto the steam
wand.
6. The exterior of the Coffee Center can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
7. Decalcify the 3 in 1 Coffee Center periodically. See the “Decalcifying Your 3 in 1
Coffee Center” section.
CLEANING YOUR 3 IN 1 COFFEE CENTER - CLEANING THE STEAM NOZZLE
• Milk residuals will build up in the tip of the steam nozzle after frothing milk. It is
very important that after you remove the frothing nozzle, you wipe the steam
nozzle clean with a damp cloth after each use. This will help prevent the steam
nozzle from clogging and will ensure good frothing results. Should the steam
nozzle become clogged, proceed as follows:
1. Ensure switches are in the “OFF” position, unplugged from electrical outlet, all
pressure has been released and the machine has cooled completely.
2. Remove the rubber frothing nozzle and the steam nozzle using the tool on the
end of the coffee measure spoon provided with your machine.
3. Clean the nozzle with warm water and ensure the small hole in the end is clear.
4. Reattach the steam nozzle, tighten steam nozzle securely and slide the rubber-
frothing nozzle onto the steam wand.
