6. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
- No Briel parts should be placed in the dishwasher. This will cause distortion and may result in the parts not functioning properly or
safely;
- Clean porta-filter and coffee filters with water after each use;
- Remove drip tray and grid and wash with warm water. Use sponge to clean out drip area;
- Ground coffee will adhere to the seal inside of the brew head. Keep it clean;
- When the machine is not in use for a long period, drain stale water from machine by turning the coffee function ON. However, do
this only after you have filled reservoir with fresh water. Never operate pump unless there is water in the machine;
- Wash Cremaker filters and the porta-filter regularly;
- The water tank and the drip tray can be removed for an easier cleaning;
Descaling:
It is advisable to descale the appliance every 4-6 months, depending on the hardness of the water and the frequency of use.
- Fill in the water tank with a 50% water, 50% vinegar solution;
- Place a recipient under the brew head without porta-filter;
- Turn ON the coffee function and let most of the solution flow to a recipient;
- Turn OFF the coffee function.
- To remove traces of the descaling solution, fill the water tank with fresh water and turn ON the coffee function. Let flow the
equivalent to 2 and a half water tanks, and turn the coffee function OFF;
Pay close attention to the water level, as you must never operate the machine without water in the tank!
This operation may be hazardous if other substances are used instead of approved descaling materials recommended for household
coffee makers.
Product failure due to scale accumulation is not covered by the warranty.
No other servicing should be attempted by the user.
Environment protection first!
