CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE 

 

This appliance is for household use only and is not user-serviceable.  Do not open or change any 

parts by yourself.  Please refer to a qualified electrical service department or return to the supplier 

if servicing is necessary.  Always remember to unplug the unit from the electrical outlet when not in 

use and before 

cleaning. Ensure that the power button is set to OFF “0”.  

CLEANING THE MILK FROTHING CONTAINER AND FROTHING TUBE 

 

Even though you can store the milk frothing container with left over milk in the refrigerator, it is 

important to clean the container and the frothing tube regularly to avoid clogging and build-up of 

residues.  In order to clean the milk frothing container, please follow the instructions listed below: 

 

1.  Remove the milk frothing container from the coffee maker. 

2.  Remove the lid of the container. 

3.  Discard any left-over milk, rinse and wash the milk frothing container and its lid thoroughly with 

warm soapy water.  Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, as they will scratch the 

finish.  The milk frothing container is also dishwasher safe (top rack).  Do not place the lid of 

the milk frothing container in the dishwasher. 

4.  Rinse and dry well.  

5.  Now place a large empty cup underneath the frothing tube. 

6.  Press and hold the Latte/ Clean button for 3 seconds and then release it. The coffee maker will 

start releasing steam through the frothing tube - 

let it run for a few seconds until you don’t see 

any milk in the cup.  

7.  When done, press the Latte/ Clean button once to stop the process. 

8.  Dispose any water leftover in the milk frothing container and place it back onto the unit. 

 

 

CLEANING THE BREW HEAD, THE PORTA-FILTER AND FILTER 

 

1.  Switch the power button on the side of the coffee maker to the OFF 

position “0” and unplug the 

power cord from the electrical outlet. 

2.  Some of the metal parts may still be hot. Do not touch them with your hands until they have 

cooled.
