Cleaning The Drip Tray; Cleaning The Water Tank; Cleaning The Spouts; Cleaning The Pre-Ground Coffee Funnel - V-ZUG 74A Instructions Manual

Important! When extracting the drip tray, the groun-
ds container must always be emptied.

Cleaning the drip tray

Important! If the drip tray is not emptied the water
might overflow.
This could damage the machine.
The drip tray is fitted with a level indicator (red) showing the
level of water it contains (fig. 28).
Before the indicator protrudes from the cup tray, the drip tray
must be emptied and cleaned.
To remove the tray:
1. Open the service door (fig. 16).
2. Remove the drip tray and the grounds container (fig. 17).
3. Empty the drip tray and grounds container (A4) and wash
them.
4. Replace the drip tray complete with grounds container
(A4).
5. Close the service door.

Cleaning the water tank

1. Clean the water tank (A12) regularly (about once a month)
with a damp cloth and a little mild washing up liquid.
2. Remove all traces of washing up liquid.

Cleaning the spouts

1. Clean the nozzles periodically using a sponge (fig. 29).
2. Check regularly that the holes in the coffee spout are not
blocked. If necessary, remove coffee deposits with a too-
thpick (fig. 27).

Cleaning the pre-ground coffee funnel

Check regularly (about once a month) that the pre-ground coffee
funnel is not blocked (fig. 21).
Danger! Before performing any cleaning operations,
the machine must be turned off by pressing the main switch
(A23) and unplugged from the mains power supply.
Never immerse the coffee machine in water.

Cleaning the inside of the coffee machine

1. Check regularly (about once a week) that the inside of the
appliance is not dirty.
If necessary, remove coffee deposits with a sponge.
2. Remove the residues with a vacuum cleaner (fig. 30).

Cleaning the infuser

The infuser must be cleaned at least once a month.
Important! The infuser (A5) must not be removed
when the appliance is on.
Do not use force to remove the infuser.
1. Make sure the machine is correctly turned off (see "Turning
off").
2. Open the service door (fig. 16).
3. Remove the drip tray and grounds container (fig. 17).
4. Press the two red release buttons inwards and at the same
time pull the infuser outwards (fig. 31).
Important! Do not use washing up liquid to clean the
infuser. It would remove the lubricant applied to the inside of
the piston.
5. Soak the infuser in water for about 5 minutes, then rinse.
6. After cleaning, replace the infuser (A5) by sliding it onto the
internal support and pin at the bottom, then push the PUSH
symbol fully in until it clicks into place.
Please note: If you encounter difficulty inserting the
infuser, before inserting it you must adapt it to the right dimen-
sion by pressing it forcefully from the bottom and top as shown
in the figure.
7. Once inserted, make sure the two red buttons have snap-
ped out.
