10 - MAINTENANCE AND USEFUL
ADVICE
In order to ensure that the spouts (B) are kept clean and free of any
coffee deposits which may jeopardize yield, we advise that before
starting work in the morning that you put filter holder (D) in with empty
filter (while machine is hot) and operate the unit several times.
In this way any coffee dust which may have been deposited between
the metal filter (B) and the metal filter holder (A) are removed. This
operation must be repeated every day.
Frequently check the filter holes (C) and remove any deposits.
Should the water have been left in the ducts for a long time, it is ne-
cessary to allow some water to flow through them in order to remove
any deposits.

Weekly cleaning operations
Cleaning of the unit and spouts: place a teaspoon of specific coffee
machine washing powder into the blind filter supplied with the machine
and apply to the unit to be cleaned using the filter-holder. Press the unit
delivery control button as for a normal coffee dispensing operation.
Suspend delivery after 30 seconds and then repeat the operation 3-4
times. Rinse out the unit using a normal filter and then undertake a
few dispensing operations using water only. Then prepare a coffee in
order to eliminate any unpleasant odours.
It is a good idea to rinse the filters (C) and filter holders (D) every day
in hot water, or even better, place them in hot water and allow to soak
for the whole night in order to dissolve any greasy coffee deposits.
It is advisable to leave the filter-holder cups inserted with the coffee
dregs for the entire working day to ensure that the filter-holder is always
at optimum temperature.
Do not cover the cup-warmer level with any fabrics or cloths etc.
Do not use any abrasive or corrosive products for cleaning the bo-
dywork.
The steam nozzles must be cleaned immediately after use in order
to prevent the risk of the formation of any scale which may block the
holes and to ensure that any drinks made subsequently do not absorb
any unpleasant odours.
