How to clean the filter unit
The filtering unit consists of a circular filter with a filter cone, a micro filter and a
coarse filter. To ensure efficient operation of the machine it is extremely important to
keep the filters clean. They must be inspected frequently to remove deposits which
may adversely affect operation.
fig. 8 – Filter unit.
Coarse filter
To remove the coarse filter, press the tabs and pull upwards (see fig. 8 - panel 19).
Clean the filter and then reposition it.
Micro filter
This is located below the coarse filter (see panel 20). Check and clean whenever
inspecting the coarse filter.
For a perfect clean, use a brush and hot water.
Circular filter
To remove this filter:
• press the tabs on the coarse filter and turn counterclockwise.
• without pressing the tabs, raise the entire unit (i.e. filter, filter cone, coarse filter and
micro filter) (see panel 22).
When cleaning this filter it is worth also cleaning the others.
