CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE DRIP TRAY
Empty the Drip Tray and Inner Drip Tray when required. If the red Water Level
Indicator appears through the Grill, empty the Drip Tray immediately. Clean the Drip
Tray and Grid weekly with warm water and a little non-abrasive washing up liquid,
rinse and dry.
CLEANING THE UNIT
1. Wipe housing with a soft wet cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring
pads, as they will scratch the finish.
2. Do not store any of the filter holder in the brew head. This can adversely affect
the seal between the brew head and the filter holder while brewing espresso.
Warning:
DESCALING
To make sure your espresso machine operates efficiently, to clean the internal
pipes, and to preserve the flavor of your coffee, the coffee machine needs to be
descaled, cleaned and maintained periodically.
Also, after 500 brew cycles, a descaling warning will be shown. The Power button
will flash 5 times to indicate it is time to descale the machine. The descaling warn-
ing will appear at every start-up if you do not run a descaling cycle.
Proceed as below steps to descaling the machine:
1. Fill the water with descaling agent (4 parts water to 1 part descaling agent) and
fill the water tank up to the Max marking.
Note:
2. Insert the filter holder with filter and no coffee, and place a large empty cup or
other suitable receptacle on the drip tray.
Do not immerse main body of the appliance or power
cord and plug in water or any other liquid.
Please also refer to the instructions on the descaling agent.
Please use a household descaling agent, or you can use citric
acid instead of a commercial descaling agent - in this case
use 100 parts of water to three parts of citric acid.
