1. External cleaning: To clean the
outside of the machine, use 96°
alcohol or specific products for
stainless steel.
• Remove and clean the tray from
time to time (figure 8).
• If you are not going to use the
machine for a long period of time,
empty the water tank.
• Immediately after use, clean the
steam nozzle with a damp cloth. •
To clean the inside of the nozzle,
let the water circulate.
• Use a toothpick or paper clip to
clean the frother hole. This keeps
the tube free of obstructions.
2. Internal cleaning: Cleaning and
preventive care of the machine's
internal system is vital if an
espresso of optimum quality
is to be obtained. To clean the
inside of the distribution unit, use
Ascaso Coffee Washer V.100.
This product is also useful for
descaling the machine. Regularly
descaling your coffee machine
helps ensure the excellent quality
of the coffee and prolong the
useful life of the machine.
Consult your distributor.

To prevent lime-scale problems, you
can also use water treatment filters.
However, we recommend cleaning
in line with consumption. Use of
filters and Coffee Washer filters helps
prolong the life of the coffee machine
in optimum condition.
Internal cleaning (back flushing)
- blind filter. Weekly. Except pod
models (fixed filter holder).
Put the blind filter in the filter holder
and attach it to the machine. Press
the coffee button. After 10 seconds,
press the button to turn off the group.
Repeat the operation twice.
NB! On completing the back
flush process, residual water will be
released through the discharge nozzle
. Make sure that it is correctly
24
placed over the tray
NB! Grinding system (mobile
filter holder). We recommend that
you do not leave ground coffee or
coffee pods in the filter holder. The
coffee will leave behind residue that
will affect the cleanliness of the coffee
machine and the flavour of the coffee.
Should this happen, run a tank of
water through the machine.
3. Cleaning the filter holder and
shower heads
• Mobile filter holder: Wash the
filter holder with hot water and pH
neutral soap. Rinse thoroughly.
Dry the holder with a soft cloth. Do
not put in the dishwasher.
• The filters, tray and tank can
be washed in the top of the
dishwasher. If you wash them
manually, don't forget to rinse
thoroughly. Dry with a soft cloth.
• Use a brush or similar to clean
off coffee grounds from the top
shower head.
