CARE & CLEANING
CLEANING CYCLE
• CLEAN ME! will be displayed on the LCD to
indicate when a cleaning cycle is required
(after approx. 200 shots). The cleaning cycle
cleans the shower screen and back-flushes
the group head.
• Insert the supplied grey silicone cleaning
disc, followed by 1 cleaning tablet into
the filter basket.
• Lock the portafilter into the group head.
• Ensure the water tank is filled with cold water
and the drip tray is empty.
• Press the MENU button and rotate SELECT
dial until 'CLEAN CYCLE' and 'PUSH' are
displayed on the LCD.

• Press the SELECT dial to start the
cleaning cycle.
• The LCD will display a countdown timer
showing remaining time for the cleaning
cycle in seconds.
• When the cleaning cycle has finished,
remove the portafilter and ensure the tablet
has completely dissolved. If the tablet has
not dissolved, repeat these steps, without
inserting a new tablet.
• Rinse the filter basket and portafilter thoroughly
before use.
• Extract an espresso to "season" the machine
and purge the system of any remaining cleaner.
INSTALLING THE WATER FILTER
• Discard the used water filter. Soak a new filter
in a cup of water for 5 minutes, then rinse under
cold running water.
• Wash the filter holder with cold water.
• Insert the filter into the two parts of the filter
holder.
• To install the assembled filter holder into the
water tank, align the base of the filter holder
with the adapter inside the water tank. Push
down to lock into place.
• Fill the water tank with cold water before sliding
back into position at the back of the machine
and locking into place.
• Replacing the water filter after three months
or 40L will reduce the need to descale the
machine. The limitation of 40L is based on water
hardness level 4. If you are in level 2 area, you
can increase this to 60L.
