Making hot water:

at the start – scalding hazard! The hot water
nozzle and pipe can reach high temperatures:

operating temperature.

it anticlockwise. Then remove the container.

Keeping it clean:
1 IMPORTANT: the steam nozzle should be cleaned after
each use in order to avoid build up of milk deposits that
are very difficult to clean. Cleaning is made easy as can
be seen in the DESCRIPTION OF PARTS. The outer
part of nozzle can be removed by pulling downward.
The outside of the steam pipe can be cleaned with a damp
cloth.
The steam jet is cleaned by running a shot of steam through
it.
The hole in the steam nozzle must be kept open. A needle
may be used.
2 Clean filter holder and filter in warm water after use.
3 Wipe body of machine with a damp cloth as required.
4 Remove drip tray and plate (11-22) and wash in warm
soapy water. Do not use abrasive substances.
5 Clean the seal (14) inside of the brewing head (13) and
keep it clean.
6 The shower disc (16) should be unscrewed and cleaned
periodically depending on frequency of use.
7 If the machine is not used for long periods, discharge the
water from the boiler by turning the steam knob (24)
counterclockwise, and press the manual dispensing /hot
water button (2) and the steam button (3). Discharge from
the frother a quantity of water equal to two cappuccino
cups. Close the steam knob (24) and press the manual
dispensing/hot water button (2) and the steam button
(3). Switch off the machine. Never use the pump without
water.
8 NOTE: It is very normal for an espresso machine to emit
steam and drip occasionally as the water pressure changes
