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.
Cleaning the coffee grounds container
When “EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER” is displayed, the grounds
container must be emptied and cleaned. The appliance cannot
be used to make coffee until you have cleaned the grounds con-
tainer. 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 becomes hot. Wait for it to cool down before
touching it and handle it from the front only.
To clean (with the machine on):
•
Remove the drip tray (fig. 25), empty and clean.
•
Empty the grounds container (A13) and clean thoroughly
to remove all residues left on the bottom. This can be done
using the spatula on the brush (C2) provided.
•
Check the condensate tray (A9) and empty if necessary
(fig. 26).
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.
Cleaning the drip tray and condensate tray
Important!
The drip tray (A12) is fitted with a level indicator (red) (A11)
showing the level of water it contains (fig. 27). Before the indi-
cator protrudes from the cup tray, 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.
To remove the drip tray:
1. Remove the drip tray and the grounds container (fig. 25);
2. Empty and wash the drip tray (A12) and grounds container
(A13);
3. Check the condensate tray (A9) and empty if necessary;
4. Replace the drip tray and grounds container.
Cleaning the inside of the coffee machine
Danger of electric shock!
Before cleaning internal parts, the machine must be turned
off (see “Turning off”, page 10) and unplugged from the mains
power supply. Never immerse the coffee machine in water.
1. Check regularly (about once a week) that the inside of the
appliance (accessible after removing the drip tray (A12))
is not dirty. If necessary, remove coffee deposits with the
brush (C2) supplied and a sponge.
2. Remove the residues with a vacuum cleaner (fig. 28).
Cleaning the water tank
1. Clean the water tank (A18) regularly (about once a month
and whenever you replace the water softener filter (C4) (if
provided) with a damp cloth and a little mild washing up
liquid.
2. Remove the filter (if present) and rinse with running water.
3. Replace the filter (if present), fill the tank with fresh water
and replace the tank.
4. (Models with water softener filter only) Deliver about
100ml of hot water to reactivate the filter.
Cleaning the coffee spouts
1. Clean the coffee spouts regularly with a sponge or cloth
(fig. 29).
2. Check the holes in the coffee spout are not blocked. If nec-
essary, remove coffee deposits with a toothpick (fig. 29).
Cleaning the pre-ground coffee funnel
Check regularly (about once a month ) that the pre-ground
coffee funnel (A4) is not blocked. If necessary, remove coffee
deposits with the brush (C2) supplied.
Cleaning the infuser
The infuser (A17) must be cleaned at least once a month.
Important!
The infuser may not be extracted when the machine is on.
1. Make sure the machine is correctly turned off (see “Turning
off”, page 10).
2. Open the infuser door (fig. 30) on the right side of the
appliance.
3. Press the two red release buttons inwards and at the same
time pull the infuser outwards (fig. 31).
4. Soak the infuser in water for about 5 minutes, then rinse
under the tap.
