Important!
• Do not use solvents, abrasive detergents or alcohol to clean
the coffee machine. It is not necessary to 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 appliance internal circuit
If the appliance is not used for more than 3/4 days, before using
it again, we strongly recommend switching it on and:
1. performing 2/3 rinse cycles by selecting the "Rinse" func-
tion (paragraph “Rinsing
";
2. delivering hot water for a few seconds (section “Delivering
hot water”).
Please note:
After cleaning, it is normal for the grounds container (A4) to
contain water.
Cleaning the coffee grounds container
When the display (B) shows the message EMPTY GROUND CON-
TAINER (fig. 26) the grounds container must be emptied and
cleaned.
The appliance cannot be used to make coffee until the grounds
container (A4) has been cleaned. 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).
To clean (with the machine on):
1. Open the bottom door by rotating it downwards (fig. 25).
2. Open the door.
3. Remove the drip tray (A14) (fig. 27), empty and clean it.
4. Carefully empty and clean the coffee grounds container
(A4) taking care to remove all the residue that can be de-
posited on the bottom: the brush provided (C5) features a
spatula especially for this job.
Important!
When removing the drip tray it is obligatory to always empty the
grounds container 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
Important!
The drip tray (A14) is fitted with a level indicator (red) showing
the level of water it contains (fig. 28).
Before the indicator protrudes from the cup tray (A1), the drip
tray must be emptied and cleaned, otherwise the water may
flow over the edge and damage the appliance, the surface it
rests on or the surrounding area.
To remove the drip tray, proceed as follows:
1. Open the door (fig. 25). Remove the drip tray and coffee
grounds container (A4) (fig. 27);
2. Empty the drip tray and grounds container and wash them;
3. Replace the drip tray complete with grounds container.
Cleaning the inside of the coffee machine
Danger!
Before cleaning internal parts, the machine must be turned off
(see section “Turning the appliance off”) and unplugged from
the mains power supply. Never immerse the coffee machine in
water.
1. Check regularly (about once a month) that the inside of the
appliance (accessible after removing the drip tray - A14) is
not dirty.
2. If necessary, remove coffee deposits with the brush (C5)
supplied and a sponge. Remove all the residues with a vac-
uum cleaner (fig. 29).
Cleaning the water tank
1. Clean the water tank (A12) regularly (about once a month)
and whenever you replace the water softener filter (C4) (if
provided) with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild
washing up liquid.: rinse carefully before filling and replac-
ing the tank;
2. Remove the filter (if present) and rinse with running water;
3. Replace the filter (if provided), 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 (A13) regularly with a sponge or
cloth (fig. 31);
2. Check that the holes in the coffee spouts are not blocked.
If necessary, remove coffee deposits with a toothpick
(fig. 30).
