CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

For correct operation and a high quality standard acurate cleaning of the machine is recommended on a regular basis.
Procedures to be followed with cold and disconnected machine:
- water tank cleaning
- filter-holder cleaning; NB: cleaning and removal of any solid residues is more accurate if the filter is removed by means of the screw (fig. 21)
- steam wand cleaning; NB: remove any milk residues on the wand, the air intake hole and the steam outlet hole with precision
- drip tray cleaning
- grate cleaning.
Should there be any water leak from the filter-holder when preparing coffee, replace the O-R seal by removing it from its seat (fig. 22) and inserting the new
one provided (T) (fig. 23). To clean the plastic filter-holder release it from the handle. To do this, turn the used serving container (U) upside down and press
the spout in the hole, the filter will automatically drop out (fig. 24).
Procedures to be followed with machine on:
To remove fatty residues of coffee from the extraction group compartment, which can spoil the aroma and taste of your espresso if they deposit and age,
clean the machine every 30 days using a cleaning tablet to dissolve such residues. A sample of this product can be found inside the package.
Proceed as follows:
1. Remove the filter-holder handle (G) from the machine
2. Place a tablet in the filter
3. Replace the handle (G) with the tablet in the machine
4. Position a recipient beneath the filter-holder, turn on the coffee switch (B) for 30 seconds and wait 60 seconds before turning on the coffee switch again.
During this 60-second break, turn the handle to the left and to the right and vice versa, several times to clean the seal as well
5. Repeat point 4 six times
6. Once the 6 cycles have been completed, make sure there are no tablet residues in the filter-holder
7. If there are any residues, make sure they are removed by releasing the filter-holder from the machine, and washing it with hot water by turning on
coffee switch (B)
8. Turn off coffee switch (B)
9. Replace the filter-holder handle (G) in the machine
Important:
Remember to keep the steam pipe clean from any milk residues both inside and outside the holes.
Clean the cappuccino maker immediately after every use by means of a sponge. The holes can be cleaned using a pin (fig. 16).
At night dip the filter-holder in a recipient filled with water to keep it clean.
DESCALING
The need to remove limescale depends on the type of water used, the hours of machine operation and the number of coffees made. The following table
contains a few indicative values relating to daily use.
Limescale content
From high to very high
Average
Low
Do not use distilled or demineralised water to prepare coffee.
CAUTION: The use of our descaling product (fig. 25) is recommended. If limescale removal is not performed, it could cause defective operation, which is not
covered by the warranty. Vinegar, lye, salt, formic acid damage the machine!
Descaling procedure:
Dilute the contents of a sachet in 1 litre of water. Pour the solution in the water tank. Switch on the machine and flush the equivalent of 2 to 3 cups. Wait 15
minutes and flush 2 or 3 cups of solution at regular intervals until the water has finished. Repeat the operation until all the solution has been used up. Then
wash the tank, fill it with fresh water and flush again with clear water about ten times so that the boiler is completely free from any residues. Caution: if
descaling is not carried out regularly, it must be performed by an authorised assistance centre.
