Preheating Cups

It is highly recommended that you preheat the
cups with very hot water before making the first
Nespresso of the day. Subsequent cups can be
preheated by stocking them on the cup heating
plate.
To preheat cups with the steam / hot water
nozzle, follow the instructions given under the
section on: "Preparing Hot Water".
Cleaning (19-21)
After the extraction of each Nespresso or the
use of the steam / hot water nozzle, residual
water in the thermoblock is discharged into
the drip tray provoking a light hissing noise.
It is therefore necessary to remove the grill
and empty the drip tray (19) after about 20
coffees and, at same time, to clean them with
a non-abrasive, dish washing liquid.
Before reinserting the drip tray and grill,
ensure that the back cover of the drip tray is
properly in place (20).
The capsule holder must be rinsed frequently.
Either run hot tap water through it or simply
insert the empty capsule holder in the spout
ring and let water run through it while slightly
loosening and re-tightening the capsuleholder
to vary the pressure flow. Cleaning the capsule
holder in the dishwasher is not recommended.
For optimal cleaning of your capsule holder,
a specially conceived cleaning product is
also available from your Nespresso Club.
Clean the steam / hot water nozzle with a
clean, damp cloth after each use. If the nozz-
le is blocked, unscrew it with the aid of a
coin and remove the residue causing the
blockage with a needle. Take this occasion to
remove the integrated frothing attachment
from the bottom part of the steam nozzle by
unscrewing it with the help of a coin if neces-
sary. Rinse all of the parts in hot water.
When reconnecting the nozzle, ensure that
the O-ring joints are put back properly into
place (21) !
Cleaning the Capsule Cage
(22-30)
The capsule cage is screwed into the bottom
part of the thermoblock inside the spout ring. In
order to clean it, follow the instructions below.
Turn off the machine and remove the water
tank, the drip tray and the capsule holder
(22).
Let the machine cool down.
Turn the machine upside down (23).
Put the hexagonal key on the capsule holder
(24) and unscrew the capsule cage by tur-
ning the handle counterclockwise (25).
Finish unscrewing the capsule cage by hand
(26).
Rinse the capsule cage under running water.
With the cleaning tool delivered with the
machine, clean the two holes on either side
of the water spout (27) as well as the water
entry point of the capsule cage using the spi-
ral end of the cleaning tool (27).
Warning ! Use the cleaning tool with
care since improper handling can
cause injury.
Blow through the capsule cage in the direc-
tion of the arrow (28) in order to remove any
deposits.
Clean the two holes of the water spout with
the cleaning tool a second time and blow
through the capsule cage once again.
Coat the threads of the capsule cage with
lubricant and ensure that the O-ring joint is
put back properly into place (29).
Manually screw the capsule cage back into
the spout ring with the help of the hexagonal
key (30). No not use the capsule holder to
handle this procedure!
Descaling
For the perfect functioning of your machine
and to maintain the optimum quality of your
Nespresso, we recommend that you descale
your machine regularly depending on the
water hardness of your region.
