15 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE 

Before performing any cleaning operations, leave the appliance to cool down and unplug from the outlet.
Never immerse the coffee maker in water. It is an electrical appliance.
Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products to clean the appliance. A soft damp cloth will suffice. The
infuser, grounds container, water tank and drip tray must NEVER be washed in the dishwasher. 

15.1 Cleaning the coffee maker

Clean the grounds container (as described in section 6, note 7) whenever it requires emptying.
The water tank should also be cleaned regularly.
The drip tray is fitted with a level indicator (red) showing the level of water it contains.  When the indicator
starts to become visible (a few millimeters under the drip tray), the drip tray must be emptied and cleaned.
Check that the holes in the coffee spout are not blocked.  To unblock them, scrape the dry coffee residues
away with a needle (fig. 27). 
Clean the nozzle regularly with a sponge as shown in fig. 26.

15.2 Cleaning the infuser

The infuser must be cleaned regularly to avoid the build-up of coffee encrustations which could cause mal-
function.
Proceed as follows:
• Turn the appliance off by pressing the         button (fig. 6) (do not unplug) and wait for the display to go

off; 

• Open the service door (fig. 14); 
• Remove the drip tray and the grounds container (fig. 15) and clean;
• Press the two red release buttons on the infuser (fig. 28) and pull it out;

IMPORTANT: 

THE INFUSER CAN ONLY BE REMOVED WHEN THE APPLIANCE IS OFF. ATTEMPTING TO

REMOVE THE INFUSER WITH THE APPLIANCE ON MAY CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE.

• Wash the infuser under running water, without using detergents.  Never wash the infuser in the dish-

washer;

• Clean the inside of the appliance thoroughly. To remove coffee encrustations from the inside of the appli-

ance, scrape with a plastic or wooden fork (fig. 29) then vacuum up the residues with a vacuum cleaner
(fig. 30);  

• Replace the infuser by sliding it onto the supports and pin at the bottom, then push the PUSH symbol fully

in until it clicks into place.
