Important! Danger of scalding
If you make a number of cappuccinos one after the other, the
metal cup tray (A12) becomes hot. Wait for it to cool down be-
fore touching it and handle it from the front only.
To clean (with the machine on):
1. Remove the drip tray (A15) (fig. 22), empty and clean.
2. Empty the grounds container (A11) and clean thoroughly
to remove all residues left on the bottom. This can be done
using the spatula on the brush (D5) provided.
3. Check the condensate tray (A10) (red) and empty if
necessary.
Important!
When removing the drip tray, the grounds container must be
emptied, even if it contains few grounds. If this is not done,
when you make the next coffees, the grounds container may fill
up more than expected and clog the machine.

12.4 Cleaning the drip tray and condensate tray

Important!
The drip tray (A15) is fitted with a level indicator (A13) (red)
showing the amount of water it contains (fig. 23).
Before the indicator protrudes from the cup tray, the drip tray
(A12) must be emptied and cleaned, otherwise the water may
overflow the edge and damage the appliance, the surface it
rests on or the surrounding area.
