Removing and cleaning the brew unit
by hand
The brew unit can be removed for
cleaning. To do this:
^ Pull out the two flaps on the
right-hand side of the coffee
machine. Turn the flaps 90°
clockwise. Open the door.
^ Press the button under the handle of
the brew unit a and, whilst doing so,
turn the handle to the left b.
^ Carefully pull the brew unit out of the
coffee machine.
If you cannot remove the brew unit or
can only do so with difficulty, the brew
unit is not in the correct position (see
"Problem solving guide").

Do not change the position of the
brew unit handle, as this would
cause the brew unit to be out of
alignment and you will not be able to
push it back into the coffee
machine.
^ Clean the brew unit by hand under
hot running water without using
washing-up liquid.
^ Wipe any remaining coffee off the two
filters. One filter is located in the
funnel a and the other to the left of
the funnel b.
^ Dry the funnel area a to prevent
ground coffee sticking to it.
^ Clean the inside of the coffee
machine. Use your vacuum cleaner
to remove dry coffee grounds.
