NOTE
If an alternative cleaning solution is used, please follow the instructions
specified. Please ensure the cleaning solution is food safe and suitable for
stainless steel and silicone products.
STEAM WAND SPARE PARTS
Please exercise care when cleaning the steam wand to avoid damaging or
losing the silicone seals. If the seals do become damaged however, replace
them with the supplied steam wand tip, gasket and ‘O’ ring (see fig. 11 ).
CLEANING THE FILTER BASKET AND PORTAFILTER
• The filter basket and portafilter should be rinsed under hot water after
each coffee making session to remove all residual coffee oils.
• If the holes in the filter basket become blocked, dissolve a cleaning tablet
in hot water and soak filter basket and portafilter in solution for approx.
20 minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
CLEAR WATER BACKFLUSH
After each coffee making session we recommend doing a clear water back
flush before you turn off the machine. Empty drip tray. Insert the cleaning
disc into the filter basket then insert the portafilter into the group head.
Press the 2 CUP button and allow pressure to build for 20secs, and then
press to stop and release pressure. Repeat this 5 times to purge any fine
coffee grounds and residual coffee oils from the brew water paths.
CLEANING THE SHOWER SCREEN
• The group head interior and shower screen should be wiped with a damp
cloth to remove any ground coffee particles.
• Periodically, run hot water through the group head with the filter basket
and portafilter in place, but without ground coffee. This will remove any
residual ground coffee particles from the shower screen.
CLEANING THE DRIP TRAY & STORAGE TRAY
• The drip tray should be removed, emptied and cleaned after each use
or when the drip tray indicator is showing Empty Me!
• Remove grill from the drip tray. Wash the drip tray in warm soapy water.
The Empty Me! Indicator can also be removed from the drip tray.
• The storage tray can be removed and cleaned with a soft, damp cloth
(do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or cloths which can scratch
the surface).
CLEANING THE OUTER HOUSING & CUP WARMING TRAY
The outer housing and cup warming tray can be cleaned with a soft, damp
cloth. Polish with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or
cloths which can scratch the surface.
NOTE
Please do not clean any of the parts or accessories in the dishwasher.
DESCALE (dESC)
Use this function to access descale procedures when a descale alert is
displayed on the LCD (see fig. 16 ).
Please ensure you allow approximately 1.5 hour to complete the entire
descale process and follow the step by step instructions. If you’ve just
finished using your machine, please ensure to turn the machine off and
allow to cool for at least 1 hour before starting your descale process.
Prepare for Descale
1. Empty the drip tray and insert into position.
2. With the machine off, press and hold the 1 CUP button, then press
and hold the POWER button together for 3 seconds. rSEt will appear
on the LCD.
3. Rotate SELECT dial until ‘dESC” appears on LCD and press the dial to
confirm (see fig. 12 ).
Empty Boilers
1. Remove the grey silicone cover on the lower front panel marked
DESCALE ACCESS (see fig. 13 ).
2. Place a cloth over the drip tray to prevent steam escaping
(see fig. 14 ).
3. Use a flat head screw driver to rotate the right valve counter-clockwise
SLOWLY until fully open. As the valve opens, steam may be released.
When the water is completely empty, close the valve by rotating screws
clock-wise until seated. Do not overtighten screws to avoid damage to
the valves (see fig. 15 ).
4. Repeat the above process on the left valve.
5. Empty the drip tray, use caution as the drip tray may be hot.
6. Empty water tank, remove water filter.
7. Place descale solution into water tank, fill with cold water to MAX
line, (if an alternative cleaning solution is used, please follow the
manufacturer’s instructions accordingly). Lock water tank back into
position at the back of the machine.
NOTE
• If there’s no water released into the drip tray, press and hold the 1 CUP
button for 3 seconds. This will release water from the boiler.
• If water tank has not been removed, replaced or is empty, “FILL TANK”
will appear on the LCD.
Begin Descale
1. Press 1 CUP button and the LCD screen will show countdown time
(20 minutes) (see fig. 17 ). During this time, the machine will fill
boilers with descale solution and heat to temperature. There may be
some water flow through the group head during this time. Allow the
countdown timer to reach 0 as this allows solution sufficient time to
dissolve scale build up. However you can proceed to the next step at
any time by pressing the 1 CUP button.
2. Place a cloth over the drip tray to stop steam escaping.
3. Repeat steps 2-4 from ‘Empty boilers’.
4. Empty drip tray and insert back into place.
5. Empty water tank then rinse and fill with clean water to the MAX line.
Lock water tank back into position.
Flush Boilers
1. Press 1 Cup button and the LCD screen will show countdown time
(20 minutes) (see fig. 17 ). During this time, the machine will fill boilers
with fresh clean water and heat to temperature. You can proceed to the
next step at any time by pressing the 1 CUP button.
2. Place a cloth over the drip tray to stop steam escaping.
3. Repeat steps 2-4 from ‘Empty boilers’.
4. Empty drip tray and insert back to place.
5. Empty water tank then rinse and fill with clean water to the MAX line.
Lock water tank back into position.
Repeat Step Flush Boilers
• We recommend flushing boilers again to ensure any residual descale
solution is released from the boilers.
• Press POWER button to escape the Descale mode. The descale
process is now complete and the machine is ready to use.
