Espresso machine Use instructions
STEAM WAND
Wipe the steam wand with a damp cloth as soon as it has been used for milk frothing.
If the steam wand becomes blocked, pull the black wand cover off, insert a
fine pin into the steam wand to clear the blockage, then push the black wandcover back on.
REMOVABLE PARTS
Wash all removable parts with warm, soapy water. Dry thoroughly before reassembling.
Empty the drip tray in good time, as it can overflow. The tray can be removed from the espresso
maker, emptied and washed in warm, soapywater.
The porta filter and filter sieves must be washed thoroughly and any blockages removed using a
needle or fine brush, if necessary.
HOUSING AND BOILER OUTLET
Wipe the espresso maker housing and the boiler outlet with a damp cloth.
Brush around the boiler head with a soft brush to remove any loose coffee.
DESCALING THE APPLIANCE
To keep the espresso maker working efficiently, the espresso maker may need descaling (you will
notice the brewing takes longer). This will depend on the water in your area and how often the
espresso maker is used.
Citric acid made for descaling coffee makers can be used, using the following procedure:
Pour the descaling solution into the water container.
Follow the 'Brewing Espresso' section on page 10 (without coffee in the porta filter), switch the ap-
pliance on and run through each function. Allow 5 minutes between the use of each function.
After descaling, fill the water container with clean water and let the water run through each cycle
until the container is empty.
Rinse the porta filter with warm water.
NOTE: THE ESPRESSO MAKER PARTS ARE NOT DISHWASHER SAFE.
