Note: When the espresso machine is turned
on it will go through an Auto Clean cycle. This
removes any old coffee grinds from the coffee
brewing unit.
The coffee making process involves extracting
oils out of coffee grinds to make espresso
coffee. Deposits of these oils build up over
time and affect the taste of the coffee and
operation of the espresso machine.
Regular cleaning of the Sunbeam Intuitive
Digital guarantees a constant coffee quality
and a trouble-free operation.
Regular cleaning
Important: Switch the espresso machine off
before cleaning. Let the espresso machine
cool down. Do not use scratching, scouring or
corrosive agents. Clean the housing inside and
outside with a damp cloth only.
Important: Never put the espresso machine
or parts of the espresso machine into the
dishwasher.
Important: Never pour water into the coffee
bean hopper as you will damage the grinding
mechanism.
Important: To prevent damage to the espresso
machine do not use alkaline cleaning agents
when cleaning, use a soft cloth and a mild
detergent.
• Remove the water reservoir daily and empty
any remaining water. Rinse out the water
reservoir with fresh water. Use fresh water
every day.
• Empty the coffee waste container daily,
see section “Emptying the coffee waste
container”.
• Regularly drain the drip tray. This can be
done at any time, but must be done when
the red drip tray float appears through the
opening in the cup resting grid.
• Regularly (at least once a week) clean the
water reservoir, drip tray, cup resting grid
and coffee wasted container with warm
soapy water.
• Remove the coffee bean hopper from time to
time, dispose of the coffee residue and give
it a wipe to remove the film of oil from the
coffee beans.
• The steam nozzle and frothing attachment
need to be cleaned after each frothing
process. To clean the steam nozzle, simply
wipe clean with a damp cloth. When using
the frothing attachment, after each use
remove it from the steam nozzle and clean
thoroughly in warm water to remove milk
remains. Additionally, should the air inlet
at the base of the steam nozzle become
blocked, open it using a pin or a thin piece
of wire.
Cleaning the height-adjustable espresso pour spouts
• If the height-adjustable espresso pour spouts
becomes stiff, remove the coffee waste
container, open the service cover and remove
it. Slide the height-adjustable espresso pour
spouts right down, and off the bottom. To do
this, gently raise the inside catch. Use warm
water to clean any coffee residues from both
parts. Reassemble the two parts. To do this,
gently pull up the catch. Check the ease of
movement of the height-adjustable espresso
pour spouts. Refit the service cover and push
the coffee waste container back in place.
Emptying the coffee waste container
At regular intervals, after every 16 coffee
brews, the coffee waste container indicator on
the control panel
signals that the container
has to be emptied and cleaned. The display
shows <<EMPTY WASTE CONTAINER>>.
When the espresso machine is in daily use,
empty the container daily. As a reminder
the display shows <<EMPTY WASTE
CONTAINER>> every time you switch the
espresso machine off.
Note: Always empty the coffee waste container
with the espresso machine switched on,
otherwise the espresso machine does not
register that the container has been emptied.
