USING THE ALLEN KEY
Over time, the silicone seal surrounding the
shower screen will need to be replaced to
ensure optimum brewing performance.
1.
Press the POWER button to switch the
machine off and unplug the cord from
the power outlet.
2.
Carefully remove the water tank and
drip tray, taking particular care if they
are full.
3.
Using a skewer or similar, clean
the center of the screw of any residual
coffee.
4.
Insert the shorter end of the Allen
Key into the center of the screw. Turn
counter-clockwise to loosen the screw.
5.
Once loosened, carefully remove and
retain the screw, stainless steel shower
screen and black dispersion plate. Make
note of the side of the shower screen
and dispersion plate that are facing
downwards. This will make re-assembly
easier. Wash the shower screen and
dispersion plate in warm soapy water,
then dry thoroughly.
6.
Remove the silicone seal with your
fi ngers or a pair of long-nose pliers.
Insert the new seal, fl at side fi rst, so the
ribbed side is facing you.
7.
Re-insert the dispersion plate, then the
shower screen, then the screw. With
your fi ngers, turn the screw clockwise
for 2-3 revolutions then insert the Allen
Key to tighten until the screw is fl ush
with the shower screen.
8.
Re-insert the drip tray and water tank.
