IMPORTANT:
To avoid blocking the holes in the cappuccino accessory, the milk foam should
never reach the black plastic ring.
It is important to clean the cappuccino accessory after each use to prevent the milk from drying out on
the inside. To do so:
Place the cappuccino accessory in a container filled with water.
Turn the switch to the “steam preheating” position.
Once the light has stopped blinking, turn the switch to the "steam" position (to remove the remaining
milk) and run the steam for 30 seconds.
Turn the switch to the “stop” position.
Clean the cappuccino accessory with a damp cloth.
For thorough cleaning of the cappuccino accessory, see paragraph 4, "Cleaning and Maintenance".
ATTENTION!
The steam nozzle is still hot!
Do not wash your espresso machine accessories in the dishwasher.
OF THE APPLIANCE
Unplug the power supply before cleaning and let the appliance cool down.
Clean the outside of the appliance from time to time with a damp sponge. After use, the water tank
must be emptied.
Rinse the inside of the tank regularly.
When a thin white layer starts to form in the tank, carry out a descaling operation (see paragraph 5
"DESCALING").
OF THE DRIP TRAY
The drip tray must be emptied after each time the appliance is used. Lift up slightly and remove it
from the appliance.
If multiple espressos are prepared one after the other, it should be emptied from time to time (every
7 to 8 espressos approximately) (fig.19&20)
The presence of water is normal and is not the sign of a leak.
If necessary, clean the drip drawer and its grid with water and a little gentle washing-up liquid, rinse
and dry. When reassembling the components, make sure everything is in the right place.
OF THE PERCOLATION HEAD AND FILTER HOLDER
They must be cleaned after each use. Simply wipe a damp cloth over the percolation head (fig. 21)
and clean the filter holder under running water and a little gentle washing-up liquid.
Do not use alcohol or solvent-based cleaning products.
For best results, you can activate the "EJECT" button several times during rinsing.
We recommend that you shake the filter holder thoroughly in order to remove all the water.
