CARE & CLEANING
CLEANING THE STEAM WAND
• Immediately after texturing milk, wipe
the steam wand with a damp cloth and
purge by lifting the STEAM LEVER for a
few seconds.
• If any of the holes in the tip of the
steam wand become blocked, ensure
the STEAM LEVER is in the CLOSED
position and clean using the pin on the
end of the provided cleaning tool.
• If steam wand remains blocked, remove
the tip using the integrated spanner in
the cleaning tool and soak in hot water.
Screw tip back onto the steam wand
using the integrated spanner in the
cleaning tool.
CLEANING THE FILTER BASKETS
AND PORTAFILTER
• The filter baskets and portafilter should
be rinsed under hot water directly after
use to remove all residual coffee oils.
• If the holes in the filter baskets become
blocked, dissolve a cleaning tablet in
hot water and soak filter basket and
portafilter in solution for approx. 20
minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
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 purge the machine with
hot water to rinse out any residual
coffee. Place an empty filter basket into
the portafilter. To by-pass low pressure
pre-infusion and deliver water to the
group head at full pump pressure, press
and hold the 2 CUP button. Release
button after 20 seconds.
CLEAR WATER BACKFLUSH
After each coffee making session we
recommend doing a clear water backflush
before you turn off the machine. 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, then press to stop &
release pressure. Repeat this 5 times to
purge any fine coffee grounds and residual
coffee oils from the brew water paths.
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 both 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
Do not clean any of the parts or
accessories in the dishwasher.
