Empty the grounds container (A15) and clean thoroughly
to remove all residues left on the bottom. This can be done
using the spatula on the brush (C2) provided.
Check the condensate tray (A11) and empty if necessary
(fig. 23).
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.
Cleaning the drip tray and condensate tray
Important!
The drip tray (A14) is fitted with a level indicator (red) (A13)
showing the level of water it contains (fig. 24). Before the indi-
cator protrudes from the cup tray, the drip tray 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.
To remove the drip tray:
1. Remove the drip tray and the grounds container (fig. 22);
2. Empty and wash the drip tray (A14) and grounds container
(A15);
3. Check the condensate tray (A11) and empty if necessary.
4. Replace the drip tray and grounds container.

Cleaning the inside of the coffee machine

Danger of electric shock!
Before cleaning internal parts, the machine must be turned off
(see "Turning off", page 10) and unplugged from the mains
power supply. Never immerse the coffee machine in water.
1. Check regularly (about once a week) that the inside of the
appliance (accessible after removing the drip tray (A14))
is not dirty. If necessary, remove coffee deposits with the
brush (C2) supplied and a sponge.
2. Remove the residues with a vacuum cleaner (fig. 25).

Cleaning the water tank

1. Clean the water tank (A20) regularly (about once a month
and whenever you replace the water softener filter (C4) (if
provided) with a damp cloth and a little mild washing up
liquid.
2. Remove the filter (if present) and rinse with running water.
3. Replace the filter (if provided), fill the tank with fresh water
and replace the tank.
4. (Models with water softener filter only) Deliver about 100ml
of hot water to reactivate the filter.

Cleaning the coffee spouts

1. Clean the coffee spouts regularly with a sponge or cloth
(fig. 26).
2. Check the holes in the coffee spout are not blocked. If nec-
essary, remove coffee deposits with a toothpick (fig. 26).

Cleaning the pre-ground coffee funnel

Check regularly (about once a month ) that the pre-ground
coffee funnel (A4) is not blocked. If necessary, remove coffee
deposits with the brush (C2) supplied.

Cleaning the infuser

The infuser (A19) must be cleaned at least once a month.
Important!
The infuser may not be extracted when the machine is on.

2. Open the infuser door (fig. 27) on the right side of the
appliance.
3. Press the two red release buttons inwards and at the same
time pull the infuser outwards (fig. 28).
4. Soak the infuser in water for about 5 minutes, then rinse
under the tap.

infuser housing, visible through the infuser door.
6. After cleaning, replace the infuser by sliding it onto the
internal support (fig. 29), then push the PUSH symbol fully
in until it clicks into place.
Please note!
If the infuser is difficult to insert, before insertion, adapt it to the
right size by pressing the two levers shown in fig. 30.
7. Once inserted, make sure the two red buttons have
snapped out (fig. 31).
8. Close the infuser door (A18).
