15.2 OVERFLOW WATER

INDICATOR (fig. 13b)

After brewing coffee, the machine
automatically releases the pressure of
the brewing chamber together with
some water into the tray. If too much
water collects in the tray the little red
indicator will pop up. Pull out the tray,
remove the used coffee container and
the water level indicator. Then empty
tray and the used coffee container,
place all the parts back into the tray,
and insert tray back into the machine.

15.3 REMOVING THE CAROUSEL

For proper cleaning you can remove
the carousel as follows:

a.

The lever should be in the raised 
position. 

b.

Turn the lever to the back of the 
machine so that the carousel 
release button points to the front 
(see fig. 15). 

c.

Push the button and lift the 
carousel (see fig. 16). 

d.

Hold the carousel upside down and
clean under running water
(see fig. 17).

e.

Replace the carousel in reverse 
order. Make sure that the release 
button points to the front of the 
machine. Make sure that the lever 
is in the raised position before 
placing the carousel back onto the 
machine.

DO NOT PLACE THE CAROUSEL IN
THE DISHWASHER!

15.4 CLEARING THE THERMOCOIL

The internal ThermoCoil system holds
a small amount of water. If you do not
use the machine for a prolonged time
(a week or longer) or if you plan to
move the machine or send it to anoth-
er place the ThermoCoil should be
empty. This procedure takes approxi-
mately 90 seconds.

a.

Turn the machine on. 

b.

Fill a large pitcher with cold water 
and immerse frother into pitcher. 

c.

Turn the selector switch to the 
steam symbol. Steam will be 

released for about 80 seconds. 
When the steam stops, the 
ThermoCoil system is cleared. 

d.

Turn the selector switch back the 
spout symbol and turn machine off. 

Important:

The next time you use the

machine, follow the instructions under
chapter 6 first.

15.5 DECALCIFYING
CAUTION

: DO NOT USE ANY COM-

MERCIAL DECALCIFYING AGENT.
DO NOT USE DURGOL. Any highly
re-active cleaning solution might
destroy the internal brewing chamber.
Use a water/vinegar solution only.

If you use your machine daily we rec-
ommend decalcifying every 4 to 6
weeks as follows. This procedure will
take about 15 minutes.

a.

Fill the water tank with 20 oz. of 
water and approx. 10 oz. of vinegar.

b.

Turn the machine on and place a 
large cup or container underneath 
the coffee spout. 

c.

Pump approx. 5 oz. of the solution 
through the coffee spout. 

d.

Stop the pump, wait for one minute. 

e.

Repeat three of four times. 

f.

Then place a large container under-
neath the frother. 

g.

Turn the selector switch to the hot 
water symbol and turn on the pump.

h.

Pump approx. 3 oz. of the solution 
through the frother. 

i.

Stop the pump, wait for one minute.

j.

Repeat twice. 

k.

Now empty the water container and
clean it thoroughly so that there is 
no vinegar residue left in the water 
container. 

l.

Fill the water container half full with
fresh cold water. 

m.

Pump half of the water through the 

coffee spout and the other half 
through the frother using the hot 
water setting.
