13. CLEANING
13.1 Cleaning the machine
The following parts of the machine must be cleaned regularly:
- the appliance’s internal circuit;
- drip tray (A10);
- coee lters (C2), (C3) and (C4);
- boiler outlet (A5);
- water tank (A8);
- milk container (D);
- the hot water spout (C7) as described in section “12.4
CLEAN THE STEAM/HOT WATER SPOUT AFTER USE;
- the milk container/water spout connector (A2).
Important!
Do not use solvents, abrasive detergents or alcohol to clean
the coee machine.
Do not use metal objects to remove encrustations or coee
deposits as they could scratch metal or plastic surfaces.
Danger! While cleaning, never immerse the coee maker in water. It is an elec-
trical appliance.
13.2 Cleaning the internal circuit
If the appliance is not used for more than 3/4 days, before using
it again, we strongly recommend you turn it on and rinse the
internal circuits through as described in points 4 and 5 of section
“3. SETTING UP THE APPLIANCE”.
13.3 Cleaning the drip tray
The drip tray is tted with a level indicator (red) showing the
level of water it contains. Before the indicator protrudes from
the cup tray, the drip tray must be emptied and cleaned, other-
wise the water may overow the edge and damage the appli-
ance, the surface it rests on or the surrounding area.
1. Remove the tray (g. 28);
2. Remove the cup tray (A12), empty the water (g. 29) and
clean the drip tray with a cloth, then reassemble the drip
tray;
3. Put the drip tray back in place.
13.4 Cleaning the coee lters
Clean the coee lters weekly:
1 and 2 cup lters
1. Extract the perforated lter by pulling the tab (g. 30);
2. Rinse the lters under running water (g. 31);
3. Make sure the holes are not blocked. If necessary, clean
with a pin (g. 32);
4. Place the perforated lter in the lter housing and press
as far as it will go.
Pod lter
Rinse under running water. Make sure the holes are not blocked.
If necessary, clean with a pin (g. 32)..
13.5 Cleaning the boiler outlet
After every 200 coees, rinse the boiler outlet (A5) by delivering
about 0.5 l of water from the boiler outlet (press the coee but-
ton without using ground coee).
13.6 Cleaning the water tank
1.
Clean the water tank (A8) regularly (about once a month and
whenever you replace the water softener lter (C10), if pro-
vided) with a damp cloth and a little mild washing up liquid;
2.
Remove the lter (if installed) and rinse with running
water;
3. Replace the lter (if installed), ll the tank with fresh water
and replace;
