Deposits of coffee oils build up over time and
affect the taste of the coffee and operation
of the espresso machine. Therefore the
group head will require regular cleaning. It is
recommended that the group head is cleaned
at a minimum every 3 months, this will vary
depending on the frequency of use.
1. Remove the water reservoir and rinse
clean. With fresh water completely fill
and replace the reservoir.
2. Remove the cleaning disc which is inside
of the top fill lid, located at the top of
the espresso machine.
3. Fit the group handle with the double
filter basket.
4. Position the cleaning disc into the double
filter basket.
5. Place a Sunbeam Espresso Machine
Cleaning Tablet (EM0020) into the
filter basket that is now also fitted with
the cleaning disc and secure the group
handle to the group head.
6. Place a sufficiently large container under
both pouring spouts.
