USEFUL TIPS:
- The single cup filter (9), the two-cup filter (10) and the pod filter (18) do not need to be washed after each
use but check that the holes are not blocked.
- For best results, we suggest warming the cups up on the cup warmer (2) which works only when the machine
is on.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning and maintenance of the machine are essential for the quality of the coffee and the durability of the
appliance.
Cleaning
The machine must be cleaned at least once a week.
Before starting, remove the plug from the electrical outlet and allow the machine to cool.
Use a soft cloth, preferably microfiber, like the Lelit cloth (code MC972 - not included), and moisten
it with plain water. Do not use abrasive detergents and do not immerse the machine in water.
For thorough maintenance, we suggest you use the Lelit brush (code PL106 - not included), which will help
you clean the nozzles and the spaces between the gaskets more effectively, removing stains and coffee
residues from even the smallest cracks.
Warm running water can be used to clean the removable parts of the machine. The filters and filterholder
should never be washed in a dishwasher.
There is no need to clean the filters after each use, but just to ensure they are not clogged.
However, to ensure the best performance from your machine, it is essential to thoroughly clean the steam
wand and filterholder after each use.
The filterholder should be cleaned to remove the greasy coffee residues that can negatively affect the taste of
your espresso.
Wash the exterior part of the steam wand with a damp cloth and release a little steam to remove any milk
residues from inside the tube, as these could obstruct the steam output, making it more difficult to froth milk
properly.
