6–2. CLEANING THE GROUP HEAD AND
SHOWER SCREENS
• Remove the filter holder from the
group head and clean the group's
gasket using the brush (16) provided.
• Place the blind filter (27) provided in
the filter holder (24-25-26)
• Add a spoonful of coffee machine
cleaning powder and insert the filter
holder into the group head.
• Use the group head control (15) to
start dispensing and stop delivery after
approximately 15-20 seconds.
• Start and stop delivery several times
until clean water is dispensed, in
order to remove coffee and limescale
deposits.
• Remove the blind filter (27) and start
dispensing several times in order to
rinse the group head and eliminate
any residues from the shower screens
and the group head.
If hot water has remained in
the pipes for a long time, we
recommend that you allow
water to flow out to remove any
deposits.
6–3. CLEANING THE FILTERS AND
FILTER HOLDERS
• Regularly check the holes in the
filters in order to remove any coffee
deposits.
• Place approximately one litre of
boiling water and four teaspoons of
coffee machine cleaner in a suitable
container. Immerse the filters and
filter holders in the solution for 20-30
minutes. Then rinse thoroughly under
running water.
6–4. CLEANING THE LOWER DRIP TRAY
Remove the drip tray grid (8) and
the drip tray (13). Remove any coffee
residues from it by rinsing it under
running water.
6–5. CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE
MACHINE
To keep the outer surface of the coffee
machine in good condition, it should
be cleaned regularly after use. Let the
appliance cool down first. Clean with a
soft, damp cloth.
6–6. REPLACING THE GROUP HEAD
GASKET (Fig. 7)
If coffee leaks from around the edges of
the filter holder (L) when it is dispensed,
it may be due to an obstruction in the
delivery hole of the filter-holder, in
which case the hole should be cleaned.
If the problem persists or if the filter
holder moves significantly beyond
the centre of the group head when it
is being fitted, the group head gasket
should be replaced.
To replace it, proceed as follows:
• Make sure that the machine is
switched off and disconnect the power
cable.
• Remove the gasket (I) and the shower
screen (M), using a flat screwdriver as
a lever.
• After having removed the gasket and
shower screen, clean the seat properly
before installing the new components.
• Once the new components have
been installed, insert the filter holder,
without the filter, into the group head
and move it in order to seat the gasket.
