The percolation head, the filter holder and the
filters must be cleaned after each use :
• First, allow the appliance to cool down, then
wipe the percolation head with a damp
cloth. Each detachable element can be
rinsed under running water.
• Do not clean the filter holder or the cup rest
grid in the dishwasher.
• If the percolation head is very dirty, unscrew
the percolation head using a coin : the valve
spring and sealing gasket will also come off.
• Clean the grid and wipe the percolation
head with a damp cloth.
• Replace the grid and screw it firmly in place.
• Make sure the valve spring and the sealing
gasket are correctly positioned (21).
Important : After making frothy milk, clean
the steam nozzle immediately by allowing the
appliance to produce steam for 1 to 2
seconds. Then wipe the tip with a damp
cloth. If the pipe and the tip have been
completely obstructed, clean these using a
needle.
If necessary, this part of the nozzle can be
unscrewed using the hexagonal key found on
the measuring spoon and by unscrewing it in
an anticlockwise direction. Clean this part
thoroughly
(22).
The nozzle must be screwed back on in a
clockwise direction after cleaning.
Use the key carefully when screwing it back
on, and do not over-tighten.
Warning : Do not remove or assemble the
steam nozzle when it is hot.
The cappuccino accessory can be given a
thorough cleaning as follows:
• Remove the two parts, A and C , of the
metal stem, B (23).
• Wash both parts in hot water.
• If the tiny aspiration hole of part A is
blocked, unblock it using a fine needle.
If the appliance is not to be used for a long
period, do not leave the filter holder in the
percolation head, as this will cause
unnecessary wear on the gasket and shorten
its lifetime.
Descaling
• You should descale your espresso maker
more or less frequently, with citric or tartaric
acid.
We do, however, recommend that you use the
Krups descaling accessory, reference 054 ,
available from all approved Krups service
centres. This accessory also includes, apart
from two descaling doses, a strip tester for
water hardness to assess how often you need
to descale your appliance in normal use.
Descaling depends on the hardness of the
water, but also on the cycle of use. The
frequency of descaling indicated by accesaory
054 is thus given only by way of indication.
• Then use the following method :
• Before descaling, unscrew the percolation
grid from the percolation head.
• Clean the percolation grid and the
percolation head of any tartar and coffee
ground residues.
• Replace the valve spring and the gasket on
the percolation head and screw down firmly.
• Remove the cappuccino accessory from the
steam nozzle.
• Dissolve two dessertspoons of descaling
product or one sachet from accessory 054 in
half a litre of warm water and pour this into
the empty water tank.
• Place one container under the percolation
head and another under the steam nozzle.
• Switch on the appliance and set the pump
switch to « » position.
• Allow about half of the descaling solution to
run through, then reset the pump switch to
position.
•
Turn the steam tap to max position.
• When the steam appears, turn the tap back
to
O
position.
• Leave the remainder of the descaling
solution to work on the interior of the
machine for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Place a container under the percolation
head and reset the pump switch to « »
position.
