CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
1. Before performing any cleaning operations, leave

to clean the appliance. A soft, damp cloth is
sufficient.
3. Empty and wash the drip tray and cup tray
frequently.
4. Clean the water tank regularly.

anticlockwise (fig. 22).
Remove the frother from the container by pushing it
from the cap end.
Remove the gasket.
Rinse all components and clean the metal filter
thoroughly in hot water using a brush (fig. 23).
Make sure the holes in the metal filter are not
blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin (see fig.24).
Replace the filter and gasket on the plastic disk as
shown in fig. 25.
Make sure to insert the pin on the plastic disk into the
hole in the gasket indicated by the arrow in fig. 25.
Replace the assembly in the steel filter container (fig.

Failure to clean as described above invalidates the
guarantee.
DESCALING
You are recommended to descale the coffee machine
about every 200 coffees or a maximum of every two
months.
You should use a commercially available product
specifically for descaling espresso coffee machines.
If such a product is not available, proceed as follows.
1. Fill the tank with half a litre of water;
2. Dissolve 2 spoonfuls (about 30 grams) of citric acid
(obtainable from chemist's or drug stores);
3. Press the ON/OFF button and wait for the OK
indicator light to come on.
4. Make sure the filter holder is not attached and
position a recipient under the boiler outlet.
5. Press the coffee button, half empty the tank by
turning the steam knob every now and then to run
off a little solution. Stop run-off by pressing the
button again.
6. Turn the appliance off.
7. Leave the solution to work for 15 minutes then turn
the appliance on again.
8. Press the coffee button to empty the tank
completely.
9. To eliminate residues of solution and scale, rinse the
tank well, fill with clean water (without citric acid)
and replace in position.
10.Press the coffee button and run the water off until
the tank is completely empty;
11.Interrupt water run-off and repeat operations 9, 10
and 11 again.
Repair of damage to the coffee machine caused by
scale is not covered by the guarantee unless descaling
is performed regularly as described above.
