Cleaning the drip tray
Some models only:
The drip tray is fitted with a level indicator (red) showing the
level of water it contains.
Before the indicator protrudes from the cup tray (fig. 25), the
drip tray must be emptied and cleaned, otherwise the water
may overflow the edge and damage the appliance, the surface
it rests on or the surrounding area.
1. Remove the drip tray (fig. 26).
2.
Some models only
: Remove the cup grille, empty the
water and clean the tray with a cloth, then reassemble the
drip tray.
Extract the mugs or glasses tray (A14), clean with water,
dry and put back in the machine.
3. Put the drip tray back in place.
Cleaning the coffee filters
Clean the coffee filters weekly:
1 and 2 cup filters
1. Extract the perforated filter by pulling the tab (fig. 27);
2. Rinse the filters under running water (fig. 28);
3. Make sure the holes are not blocked. If necessary, clean
with a pin (figs. 28 and 29);
4. Place the perforated filter in the filter housing and press as
far as it will go.
Pod filter
Rinse under running water. Make sure the holes are not blocked.
If necessary, clean with a pin (figs. 28 and 29).
Cleaning the boiler outlet
After every 200 coffees, rinse the boiler outlet by delivering
about 0.5 l of water from the boiler outlet.
Cleaning the water tank
1. Clean the water tank regularly (about once a month) and
whenever you replace the water softener filter (C7, *if
provided) with a damp cloth and a little mild washing up
liquid.
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 100
ml of water.
DESCALING
You are recommended to descale the coffee maker about every
200 coffees.
We recommend using commercially available De’Longhi (C6*)
descaler.
Proceed as follows:
1. Fill the tank with the descaler solution, obtained by dilut-
ing the descaler with water following the instructions on
the pack.
2. Press the ON/OFF button.
3. Make sure the filter holder is not attached and place a re-
cipient under the cappuccino maker.
4. Wait until the
OK
light comes on.
5. Turn the mode selector dial to the
position and
deliver about 1/4 of the solution in the tank. At intervals,
turn the steam dial to the
position to deliver
water from the cappuccino maker. Then interrupt delivery
by turning the mode selector dial to the
l
position and
leave the solution to work for about 5 minutes.
6. Repeat point 5 another 3 times, until the tank is empty.
7. To eliminate residues of descaler solution, rinse the tank
well and fill it with clean water (without descaler).
8. Turn the selector to the
position. At intervals,
turn the steam dial to the
position to deliver
water from the cappuccino maker: deliver water until the
tank is empty.
9. Repeat points 7 and 8.
