Cleaning the boiler outlet
About every 200 coffees, the espresso boiler outlet must be cleaned
as follows:
• Make sure the appliance is not hot and that it is unplugged from
the mains;
• Using a screwdriver, unscrew the screw fixing the espresso boiler
outlet (fig. 26);
• Clean the boiler with a damp cloth (fig. 27);
•Clean the outlet thoroughly in hot water using a brush. Make sure
the holes are not blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin (fig. 24).
• Rinse under running water, rubbing all the time.
• Replace the espresso boiler outlet, making sure the gasket is cor-
rectly positioned.
Failure to clean as described above invalidates the guarantee.

perature OK indicator light to come on.

tank.Then interrupt by pressing the same button again.
