Preheating cups

For the first espressos of the day, we advise
that you pre-heat the cups with very hot
water. Next time you use the machine, you
can pre-heat the cups on the appliance's own
hotplate.
• Pre-heat the cups with very hot water :
• Turn the function selector to position
• Put the capsule holder in place without a
capsule and start the appliance.
• Place the cup below the capsule holder.
• Once the yellow control light has gone out,
turn the function selector to position
(17) and allow hot water to run into the
cup.
• As soon as the cup is full, turn the function
selector to position

Heating liquids

• Turn the function selector to position
soon as the yellow indicator light goes out,
immerse the steam nozzle into the container
holding the liquid to be heated and turn the
function selector to position
• Once the operation is completed, reset it to
position .
Important:
If you want to make an espresso immediately
after making a cappuccino or heating liquid,
the appliance must first be allowed to cool
down to "coffee" temperature. To do this:
• Place the capsule holder in position without
a capsule, put a container below the coffee
outlet and run two cups of water through
via the coffee outlet.

Cleaning
• Never wash your espresso machine
accessories in the dishwasher.
• Empty the water tank after each use.
Each time you make coffee or steam, the
heating system expands (emitting a whistle)
and the water which escapes then runs into
the drip tray; so after about 20 cups of coffee,
the tray must be emptied and cleaned.
Remove the grid and clean this, too.
• Before replacing the tray and the grid, make
sure that the plastic part is correctly
positioned at the back of the drip tray (19).
The best way to clean the capsule holder is to
insert it into the machine, without a capsule,
and turn the function selector to position
In this way it will be cleaned under pressure.
• Reset the control to position
The capsule holder can be cleaned in the
dishwasher and must be cleaned at least once
a week.
• Clean the steam nozzle using a damp
sponge after each use. If the nozzle is
blocked, unscrew the pipe using a coin and
unblock the nozzle with a needle.
• When refitting the pipe, take care that the
rubber seal is correctly positioned (20).
To clean the "cappuccino" accessory, separate
parts A and C from the metal stem B (21);
clean the 3 parts in hot water. If the small
opening at the end A is blocked, you can
unblock it with a fine needle.
For more thorough cleaning, the capsule
cage can be removed:
• Unplug the appliance, remove the water
tank and the drip tray (22).
• Place the machine upside down (23).
• Unscrew the capsule cage with the special
key, anti-clockwise (24-25-26-27).
• Rinse the capsule cage thoroughly under
running water and clean the two perfora-
tions using the unblocking tool (28).
Be careful when using the unblocking
tool, as careless handling could cause
injury.
