CLEANING
For perfect cleaning and efficiency of the appliance, several simple cleaning operations are necessary on the functional
parts and accessories as well as the body panels. The indications given here are applicable for normal use of the coffee
machine. If the machine is heavily used then cleaning should be performed more frequently.
Filter and filter-holder
The filters and the relative filter-holders must be cleaned daily in hot water. The best
thing to do is to let them soak in hot water overnight so that the fatty coffee deposits
can dissolve.
It is advisable to add an envelope or tablet of special detergent to the water, and
then to rinse everything off with water.
Failure to clean the filters and filter holders daily will compromise the quality of
the coffee and will also cause problems such as bad extraction and coffee grounds
at the bottom of the cup.
Steam nozzles
The steam pipes must be kept clean at all times. Check the ends of the steam noz-
zles and clean them monthly, clearing out the exit holes with a small needle.
Delivery groups
The cleaning of the internal parts of the delivery groups is to be performed weekly in the following manner:
• replace the normal filter of the filter-holder with a solid one;
• pour a teaspoon of a suitable detergent powder on the solid filter, and attach the filter-holder to the group;
• use the delivery switch to set the group in operation;
• repeat the above operations until the water comes out clean;
• turn off and remove the filter-holder from the group;
• rinse a final time, so as to remove any residual detergent.
Body
The body panels should be cleaned with a cloth soaked in warm water. Do not use abrasive detergents since the panels
could get scratched.
Grinder-doser
Every week clean the bell jar and the dosing device with a cloth soaked in lukewarm water, both inside and out.
When cleaning, always use cloths that are completely clean and hygienic
