Press the ‘POWER’ button to the ‘On’ •
position and turn the ‘SELECTOR

Place a large container under the group •
head, and steam wand.
When the brewing temperature has •
been reached the red ‘HEATING’ light
will switch off. Turn the ‘SELECTOR

to commence pour.
Once half the mixture of white vinegar •
and water has run through the group

CARE AND CLEANING
Cleaning The Housing / Cup
Warming Tray
The outer housing can be wiped with a •
soft, damp cloth (do not use abrasive
agents or cloths which can scratch
the surfaces).
WARNING: DO NOT IMMERSE
CORD, PLUG OR APPLIANCE IN
WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.
Cleaning The Drip Tray
The drip tray should be removed, •
emptied and cleaned at regular intervals,
particularly when the drip tray full
indicator is showing ‘Empty Me!
Remove the stainless steel grid and pull •
the ‘Empty Me!’ full indicator upwards
to dislodge from the drip tray. Wash with
warm soapy water, using a non-abrasive
washing liquid, rinse and dry thoroughly.
NOTE:
Make sure to wipe off any excess coffee
from the rim of the filter to ensure a proper
seal is achieved under the group head.
WARNING: DO NOT IMMERSE
CORD, PLUG OR APPLIANCE IN
WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.
Decalcifying The Machine
After regular use, hard water can cause •
mineral build up in and on many of the
inner functioning components, reducing
the brewing flow, power of the machine,
and affecting the quality of coffee.
We advise decalcifying the machine on a
regular basis (every 2-3 months) using a
mixture of white vinegar and water.
