surrounding area.
To remove the drip tray, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the drip tray and coffee grounds container (A11)
(fig. 21);
2. Remove the cup tray (A12) and drip tray grille (A14), then
empty the drip tray and grounds container and wash all
components.

necessary;
4. Put the drip tray complete with grille and grounds contain-
er back in the appliance.
Important!
When removing the drip tray, the grounds container must be
emptied, even if it contains few grounds. If this is not done,
when you make the next coffees, the grounds container will fill
up more than expected and clog the machine.

13.5 Cleaning the inside of the machine

Danger of electric shock!
Before cleaning internal parts, the machine must be turned off
(see section "5. Turning the appliance off") and unplugged from
the mains power supply. Never immerse the machine in water.
1. Check regularly (about once a month) that the inside of the
appliance (accessible after removing the drip tray (A15))
is not dirty. If necessary, remove coffee deposits with the
brush (D5) supplied and a sponge.
2. Remove all residues with a vacuum cleaner (fig. 23).

little washing up liquid. Rinse thoroughly with water.

tank with fresh water up to the MAX level and put the
tank back;
6. (Models with water softener filter only) Release around
100ml of hot water to reactivate the filter.

If the appliance is not used for more than 3-4 days, you should
clean the tank as described above.

13.7 Cleaning the coffee spouts
