CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

After making and serving each cappuccino, cool the product completely by rinsing under
running cold water. Remove the valve and then unscrew the upper part from the heater unit.
Wash the upper part and the heater unit, rinse the inside under the tap and, if
necessary, clean with a soft sponge.
It is advisable to wash the product immediately after each use in order to avoid the
build-up of milk solids.
The pressure valve should be rinsed under the tap. The valve should be washed after
each use to prevent the build-up of milk solids.
It is advisable to periodically clean the filter plate with a washing-up brush, to prevent it
