6.  Once the required quantity of coffee has been delivered 

into the cup, press the CAPPUCCINO button again. Coffee 
delivery stops.

The machine is now reprogrammed with the new milk and cof-
fee quantities.

12.  HOT WATER

 Important! Danger of burns. 

Never leave the machine unattended while delivering hot water. 
The hot water spout (C6) becomes hot during delivery. Hold by 
the handle only.

1.  Make sure the hot water spout is attached correctly;
2.  Place a container under the spout (as close as possible to 

avoid splashes);

3.  Press the 

 button (B9) (fig. 4). "HOT WATER" appears 

on the display (B1), together with a progress bar which fills 
gradually as preparation proceeds;

4.  The machine delivers about 250ml of hot water, then deliv-

ery stops automatically.  To interrupt delivery of hot water 
manually, press the 

 button again.

 Please note:

If "Energy Saving" mode is active, you may have to wait a few 
seconds before hot water is delivered.

12.1  Changing the quantity of water delivered 

automatically

The machine is set by default to automatically deliver 250ml of 
hot water. To modify these quantities, proceed as follows:
1.  Position a container under the hot water spout (C6);
2.  Press and hold the 

button (B9) until "HOT WATER 

Program Quantity" appears on the display (B1), then re-
lease the 

 button. 

3.  When the hot water in the cup reaches the required level, 

press the 

 button again. 

The machine is now reprogrammed with the new quantity.

13.  CLEANING

13.1  Cleaning the machine

The following parts of the machine must be cleaned regularly:
-   the appliance’s internal circuit;
-  coffee grounds container (A15);
-  drip tray (A19) and condensate tray (A16);
-  water tank (A10);
-  coffee spouts (A14);
-   pre-ground coffee funnel (A6);
-  infuser (A12), accessible after opening the infuser door 

(A11);

-  milk container (D);

-  hot water/steam connection nozzle (A13);

 Important! 

•  Do not use solvents, abrasive detergents or alcohol to clean 

the coffee machine. With De’Longhi superautomatic coffee 
machines, you need not use chemical products to clean the 
machine.

•  None of the components of the appliance can be washed in 

a dishwasher with the exception of the milk container (D).

•  Do not use metal objects to remove encrustations or coffee 

deposits as they could scratch metal or plastic surfaces.

13.2  Cleaning the machine's internal circuit

If the appliance is not used for more than 3/4 days, before using 
it again, we strongly recommend switching it on and:
•  performing 2/3 rinse cycles by pressing the 

 button 

(B5);

•  delivering hot water for a few seconds by pressing the 

 button (B9).

13.3  Cleaning the coffee grounds container

When "EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER" appears on the display 
(B1), the grounds container must be emptied and cleaned. The 
appliance cannot be used to make coffee until you have cleaned 
the grounds container (A15). Even if not full, the empty grounds 
container message is displayed 72 hours after the first coffee has 
been prepared. For the 72 hours to be calculated correctly, the 
machine must never be turned off with the main switch.

 Important! Danger of burns 

If you make a number of cappuccinos one after the other, the 
metal cup tray (A17) becomes hot. Wait for it to cool down be-
fore touching it and handle from the front only.
 
To clean (with the machine on):
•  Remove the drip tray (A19) (fig. 25), empty and clean.
•  Empty the grounds container (A15) and clean thoroughly 

to remove all residues left on the bottom. This can be done 
with the spatula on the brush (C5) provided.

•  Check the condensate tray (A16) (red) and empty if 

necessary.

 Important! 

When removing the drip tray, the grounds container must be 
emptied, even if it contains few grounds.
If this is not done, when you make the next coffees, the grounds 
container may fill up more than expected and clog the machine.

 Please note:

After cleaning, it is normal for the coffee grounds container 
(A14) to contain water.
