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 turn the
machine Off and unplug the cord from
the power outlet.
2. Carefully remove the rear 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 and stainless steel
shower screen. Make note of the side
of the shower screen that is facing
downwards. This will make re-assembly
easier. Wash the shower screen in warm
soapy water, then dry thoroughly.
6. Remove the silicone seal with your
fingers or a pair of long-nose pliers.
Insert the new seal, flat side first, so the
ribbed side is facing you.
7. Re-insert the shower screen, then the
screw. With your fingers, turn the screw
clockwise for 2-3 revolutions then insert
the Allen Key to tighten until the screw
is flush with the shower screen. Do not
overtighten screw.
8. Re-insert the drip tray and rear water
tank.
