14.1

Rinsing

When the green hot-water light
minates, the machine needs to run a hot
water rinse cycle:
• Place a cup underneath the coffee
spout and push the hot-water button
. The machine will pump hot water
through the coffee spout and stop
automatically.
Note: When you turn the machine on in
the morning, the green hot-water light
will illuminate after approximately 30
seconds, requiring a hot water rinse
cycle. This first cycle of the day ensures
that all parts are hot and that any leftover
water from before is discarded.

14.2 Cleaning with Special Tablet

(
Capresso Cleaning Tablets Required
After making approximately 200 coffees,
the internal brewing chamber and the
brewing unit must be cleaned (coffee, oil
deposits, etc.). The red tablet-cleaning
light will illuminate, indicating that it is
time to run the cleaning cycle. This cycle
takes approximately 15 minutes.
Note: Even with the red tablet-cleaning
light illuminated, you can still use the
machine. However, we strongly recom-
mend performing the cleaning procedure
within the next few days. If you wait too
long, you can severely damage your
machine. The red tablet-cleaning light
will not go off until you have completed
the cleaning cycle.
Important: Only use the cleaning tablets
provided by Capresso. Two tablets come
with the machine.
Note: You can order more tablets from
Capresso by using the enclosed mail
