CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before performing any cleaning operations, leave the machine
to cool down completely and unplug from the mains power
supply.
Never immerse the coffee maker in water. It is an electrical ap-
pliance.
Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean the coffee
maker. A soft damp cloth will suffice. Never wash any of the
components of the coffee maker in the dishwasher.
Cleaning the coffee maker
The following parts of the machine must be cleaned regularly:
• Coffee grounds container (A4).
• Drip tray (A11).
• Water tank (A9).
• Coffee spouts (A10).
• Pre-ground coffee funnel (A17).
• Inside of the machine, accessible after opening the service
door (A2).
• Infuser (A5).
Cleaning the coffee grounds container
When “EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER” is displayed, the grounds
container must be emptied and cleaned.
Until the grounds container has been cleaned, the appliance
continues to display the message and coffee cannot be made.
To clean:
• Open the service door (A2) on the front of the appliance
(fig. 14), extract the drip tray (A11) (fig. 15), empty and
clean.
• Empty the grounds container and clean thoroughly to re-
move all residues left on the bottom.
Important!
When removing the drip tray, the grounds
container must be emptied, even if it is not completely full. 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!
If the drip tray is not emptied regular-
ly, the water could overflow from the edge and seep inside or
around the coffee maker. This could damage the appliance and
cabinet.
The drip tray is fitted with a level indicator (red) showing the
level of water it contains (fig. 31).
Before the indicator protrudes from the cup tray, the drip tray
must be emptied and cleaned.
To remove the tray:
1. Open the service door (A2) (fig. 14).
2. Remove the drip tray (A11) and the grounds container (A4)
(fig. 15).
3. Empty the drip tray and grounds container and wash them.
4. Replace the drip tray complete with grounds container.
5. Close the service door.
Cleaning the water tank
1. Clean the water tank (A9) regularly (about once a month)
with a damp cloth and a little mild washing up liquid.
2. Clean to remove all washing up liquid residues, then rinse
the water tank thoroughly.
Cleaning the spouts
1. Clean the coffee spout nozzles (A10) periodically using a
sponge or cloth (fig. 27).
2. Check regularly that the holes in the coffee spout are not
blocked.
If necessary, remove coffee deposits with a toothpick (fig.
26).
Cleaning the pre-ground coffee funnel
• Check regularly (about once a month ) that the pre-ground
coffee funnel (A17) is not blocked.
If necessary, remove coffee deposits with a knife (fig. 18).
Danger!
Before performing any cleaning operations,
the machine must be turned off by pressing the main switch
(A19) and unplugged from the mains power supply. Never im-
merse the coffee maker in water.
Cleaning the inside of the coffee maker
1. Check regularly (about once a week) that the inside of the
appliance is not dirty.
If necessary, remove coffee deposits with a knife and a
sponge.
2. Remove the residues with a vacuum cleaner (fig. 30).
Cleaning the infuser
The infuser (A5) must be cleaned at least once a month.
Important!
The infuser (A5) must not be removed
when the appliance is on.
Do not attempt to use force to remove the infuser as this could
damage the coffee maker.
1. Make sure the machine is correctly turned off (see “Turning
the appliance off”).
