Cleaning and Maintenance
COMPLETELY CLEAN AND DRY ALL PARTS AFTER EVERY USE.
Always turn coffee maker “Off” and remove the plug from the electrical outlet
before cleaning it.
Clean the steam nozzle
immediately
after frothing milk with the remaining
steam, which will help soften the milk residue outside and inside of the steam
nozzle. Wipe with damp cloth.
The espresso carafe, carafe lid, filter basket, and base grid can be washed with
soapy water or placed on the top rack of your dishwasher only.
Never immerse base unit in water or other liquid. Do not remove boiler cap while
espresso maker still has pressure. After the pressure has been released, remove
boiler cap. Discard the remaining water through the top opening of the water
