CLEANING
• To dispose of the used coffee grounds, remove the filter from the coffee
maker.
• Unplug the coffee maker and let it cool down.
• Clean with a damp cloth or sponge.
• Do not clean the appliance while it is still hot.
• Never immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid.
• None of the coffee maker parts should be put in the dishwasher.
Descaling
• Descale your coffee maker every month or every 40 cycles.
You can use:
– a packet of descaling agent diluted in two large cups of water.
– or two large cups of commercially available white vinegar which can
be purchased in hardware stores.
• Pour into the tank (b) and turn on the coffee maker (without coffee).
• Let the equivalent of one cup pour into the jug, then turn the coffee
maker off.
• Allow the liquid to stand for one hour.
• Restart the coffee maker and let the rest of the liquid pass through to
the jug.
• To rinse, run the coffee maker 2 or 3 more times with the equivalent of
one glass jug of water.
The guarantee does not cover coffee makers that malfunction or
cease to operate because they have not been regularly descaled.
THINK OF THE ENVIRONMENT!
Your appliance contains valuable materials which can be recovered or
recycled.
Leave it at a local civic waste collection point or at an approved service
centre, where it will be disposed of properly.
European directive 2012/19/UE on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE),
requires that old household electrical appliances are not thrown into the normal flow of
municipal waste. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimize the
recovery and recycling of materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health
and the environment.
