CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
HOW TO CLEAN THE WATER RESERVOIR
Empty the water reservoir between uses. Discard the remaining water by removing the
reservoir and emptying it into the sink. Wash the water reservoir as needed with soapy
water, rinse it well and wipe it dry. The water reservoir is not dishwasher safe.
HOW TO CLEAN THE HOUSING AND STORE THE UNIT
1.
Wipe the housing with a soft wet cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring
pads, as they can scratch the finish. CAUTION: Do not immerse the appliance, cord, or
plug in water.
2. Do not store the portafilter in the brew head. This can adversely affect the seal
between the brew head and the portafilter while brewing espresso.
3. Decalcify the unit as needed according to directions that follow.
HOW TO DECALCIFY
Mineral deposits built up in the unit will affect the operation of the appliance.
Your appliance must be decalcified when you notice an increase in the time required to
brew espresso or when there is excessive steaming. Also, you may notice a buildup of
white deposits on the surface of the brew head. The frequency of cleaning depends upon
the hardness of your water.
