CLEANING
Danger! Before cleaning the outside of the appliance,
turn it off, unplug from the mains socket and allow to cool.
Filter cleaning and maintenance
About every 200 coffees, the filters must be cleaned as follows:
•
Remove the filter cap by unscrewing it anticlockwise (fig.
24).
•
Remove the frother from the container by pushing it from
the cap end.
•
Remove the gasket.
•
Rinse all components and clean the metal filter thoroughly
in hot water using a brush (fig. 25). Make sure the holes in
the metal filter are not blocked. If necessary, clean with a
pin (see fig. 25).
•
Replace the filter and gasket on the plastic disk as shown in
fig. 26. Make sure to insert the pin on the plastic disk into
the hole in the gasket indicated by the arrow in fig. 26.
•
Replace the resulting assembly in the steel filter container
(fig. 27), making sure the pin is inserted into the hole in the
support (see arrow in fig. 27).
•
Finally, screw on the cap (fig. 28).
Cleaning the boiler outlet
About every 300 coffees, the boiler outlet must be cleaned as
follows:
•
Make sure the appliance is not hot and that it is unplugged
from the mains;
•
Using a screwdriver, unscrew the screw fixing the espresso
boiler outlet (fig. 29);
•
Remove the boiler outlet;
•
Clean the boiler with a damp cloth (fig. 30);
•
Clean the outlet thoroughly in hot water using a brush.
Make sure the holes are not blocked. If necessary, clean
with a pin.
•
Rinse under running water, rubbing all the time.
•
Replace the boiler outlet, making sure the gasket is cor-
rectly positioned.
Failure to clean as described above invalidates the guarantee.
Other cleaning operations
1. Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean the cof-
fee machine. Use a soft damp cloth only.
2. Clean the filter holder cup, filters, drip tray and water tank
regularly. The drip tray has a red indicator which becomes
visible when the tray needs emptying. To empty, remove
the cup tray grille (fig. 31), eliminate the water and clean
the tray with a cloth. Then reassemble the drip tray, mak-
ing sure the indicator is correctly positioned. Clean the
tank, using a brush to reach the bottom (fig. 32).
Danger! While cleaning, never immerse the coffee
maker in water. It is an electrical appliance.
DESCALING
You are recommended to descale the coffee maker about every
200 coffees. You should use commercially available De'Longhi
descaler. Proceed as follows:
1. Fill the tank with the descaler solution obtained by diluting
the descaler with water following the instructions on the
pack.
2. Press the ON/OFF button (fig. 4).
3. Make sure the filter holder is not attached and position a
recipient under the cappuccino maker.
4. Wait until the OK light comes on.
5. Press the coffee button and deliver about 1/4 of the solu-
tion in the tank, turning the steam dial at intervals to allow
a little solution to flow out. Then stop the flow by pressing
the button again and leave the solution to act for about
five minutes.
6. Repeat point 5 another 3 times, until the tank is empty.
7. To eliminate residues of solution and limescale, rinse the
tank well, fill with clean water (without descaler) and put
back in place.
8. Press the coffee delivery button and allow the water to
deliver until the tank is completely empty;
9. Repeat points 7 and 8.
