Emptying the coffee grounds collector, coffee drawer and the
drip tray
After a certain number of coffees, the machine will ask you to empty the coffee grounds
collector and to clean the coffee drawer. Failure to perform these operations correctly can
damage your appliance.
The drip tray collects the used water and the coffee grounds collector collects the used
coffee grounds.
The coffee drawer allows you to remove any coffee grounds below the percolation chamber.
If the message “
Empty the two trays
” is displayed, empty and clean the drip tray.
1. Remove, empty and clean the coffee grounds collector.
Fig. 21.
2. Remove the coffee drawer.
Wait for at least 8 seconds, then first put the coffee drawer back in place and then the coffee
grounds collector tray.
Fig. 22.
The drip tray is equipped with a float indicating when it requires emptying.
The machine is programmed to ask for the drip tray to be emptied after a certain number
of coffees, irrespective of the number of times you may have emptied the tray already.
Circuit rinsing
You can perform a rinse at any time by pressing Prog then maintenance. Depending on the
types of recipes prepared, the appliance can perform an automatic rinse when switching
off.
It is also possible to set automatic rinsing on switch-on (see "Settings" section page 24).
Automatic clean programmes
Automatic clean programme for the coffee circuit
The appliance will tell you when a clean programme is required. This clean must take place
every 360 preparations approximately.
To perform the clean programme, you will need a container with a capacity of at least 0.6 litre;
this should be placed under the coffee outlets and you will need a KRUPS cleaning tablet.
Follow the instructions on-screen. It is also possible to launch cleaning via the maintenance
menu.
Important:
you do not have to perform the clean programme immediately when the
appliance requests this; however, you should do this as soon as possible. If
cleaning is delayed, an alert message
will remain on the screen until the
operation is performed.
The automatic clean programme includes two phases: a clean and a rinse cycle; the
programme takes about 13 minutes.
Important:
if you disconnect your appliance during cleaning or in the event of a power
cut, the cleaning programme will resume the stage in progress during the
incident. It will not be possible to delay this operation. It is mandatory due to
water circuit rinse reasons. In this case, a new cleaning tablet may be
required. Run the entire cleaning programme to eliminate all traces of cleaning
product that may be harmful to health.
Do not place your hands under the coffee outlets during the cycle.
