CLEANING

Cleaning the machine

The following parts of the machine must be cleaned regularly:
-   the drip tray (A14) 
-  the coffee filters (C2, C3 and C4);
-    the boiler outlet (A12);
-   the water tank ( A1);
-   the cappuccino maker (A7) as described in section “Clean-

ing the cappuccino maker after use”.

 Important!

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

the coffee machine.

•   Do not use metal objects to remove encrustations or coffee 

deposits as they could scratch metal or plastic surfaces.

Danger! 

 While cleaning, never immerse the coffee 

maker in water. It is an electrical appliance.

Please note: 

If the appliance is not used for more than 3/4 days, before using it again, we strong-
ly recommend you rinse the internal circuits through as described in Setting up the 
appliance”.

Cleaning the drip tray

 Important! 

The drip tray is fitted with a level indicator (red) showing the 
level of water it contains. Before the indicator protrudes from 
the cup tray (fig. 25), the drip tray must be emptied and cleaned, 
otherwise the water may overflow the edge and damage the 
appliance, the surface it rests on or the surrounding area. 
1.  Remove the drip tray (fig. 26);
2.  Remove the cup tray, empty the water and clean the drip 

tray with a cloth, then reassemble the drip tray. Extract the 
mug of high glass tray (A13), clean with water, dry and put 
it back in its housing; 

3.  Put the drip tray back in place. 

Cleaning the coffee filters

Clean the coffee filters weekly:

1 and 2 cup filters

1.  Extract the perforated filter by pulling the tab (fig. 27);
2.  Rinse the filters under running water (fig. 28);
3.  Make sure the holes are not blocked. If necessary, clean 

with a pin (figs. 28 and 29);

4.  Place the perforated filter in the filter housing and press as 

far as it will go.

Pod filter

Rinse under running water. Make sure the holes are not blocked. 
If necessary, clean with a pin (figs. 28 and 29).
