CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Unplug (K) before each clean let the appliance cool down rst.
Machine: Clean the outside of the appliance with a damp sponge when you think it necessary. Do
not use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean the coffee machine.
Water tank: Rinse the inside of the tank regularly. When a ne white layer appears in the tank,
descale the appliance (refer to the section on descaling).
Drip tray: Clean the drip tray (J) and its grid (I) using water and a little mild detergent (33-34). Rinse
and dry. Only the drip tray grill is dishwasher safe.
Filter holder, lters: Using a damp cloth, clean the lter holder mount regularly in order to remove
possible coffee residues stuck to the surface. In order to prolong the useful life of the watertight seal
on the brewing head, do not put the lter holder back in place if the coffee machine is not to be used
for extended periods. To remove any deposits that could block the ow of your 1 or 2 cup lter, you
may use the needle. Filters are dishwasher safe.
Steam nozzle: To prevent milk from drying inside the nozzle, please clean it after each use. To do
this, follow the steps for foaming the milk, replacing 100 ml of milk with 60 ml of water. After turning
off the steam, quickly and carefully clean the steam nozzle using a damp sponge (in order to remove
any residue). Pull the tube of the steam nozzle downwards. Carefully clean the steam nozzle with
lukewarm water (31-32). Fit the tube back onto the steam nozzle. Only the steam nozzle tube is
dishwasher safe.
4. Set the steam nozzle to the foaming function (H1) by turning the ring (27)
5. Place the steam nozzle (H) into a container lled with milk.
6. Turn the knob (M) from preheat (M1) to steam position (M2) (28),
button white light ashes,
the machine starts to make steam.
Note: For best results, foam the milk near the bottom of the container for approximately 10 seconds,
taking care not to touch the bottom. Then slowly tilt the container and move the nozzle upwards until
it is almost at the surface of the milk. Make sure that the nozzle does not leave the milk. To get a great
foam, move the container in circular motions (29).
7. Once you have achieved the best foam turn the knob back to preheat position (30).
Note: To prevent overheating the milk, do not use the steamer for more than 45 seconds (for 100 ml
of milk).
8. Spread the milk foam over the cup(s) of espresso.
Note:
If you wish to make more than one cappuccino, rst make all the espressos, then make the milk
foam.
After turning off the steam, quickly and carefully clean the steam nozzle using a damp sponge (to
ensure that residues do not remain stuck).
Hot milk preparation
Follow the steps described in the section “Making Cappuccino”, taking care to modify the steam
function in step 4, which will produce hot milk instead of foamed milk:
4. Set the steam nozzle to the hot milk function (H2) by turning the ring (27)
