6. Cleaning and descaling

WARNING!
Disconnect the device from the power supply (unplug!)
before cleaning.
The device is not designed to be rinsed with running water.
Do not use a pressure washer to clean the device!
Be careful and do not let the water into the device.
Regular cleaning
CAUTION!
Always, prior to cleaning, moving or transporting the machine,
empty the water container.
o Because a small amount of water
always remains in the flow hoses and
water container (in accordance with
the way the system functions), if the
device is to be unused for a longer
period of time the remaining water
should be drained using the drain
screw at the back of the device (at
the bottom), then the device should
be washed.
WARNING! Danger of burns!
Drain the water after the device and water have cooled down.
After draining, replace the drain screw.
o For shorter periods of non-use, it is sufficient to rinse the coffee machine with fresh
water without using coffee powder.
o Please repeat the steps 1 to 8 if you haven't used the coffee machine for longer
periods (section „Brewing coffee") without using coffee powder.
o Glass jug and filter basket should be rinsed thoroughly after every use.
o Use soft cloth only and make sure you never use any kind of abrasive agents,
which could scratch the metal.
o Regular dish liquid and water are sufficient to remove marks of fingerprints,
grease or dirt.
