◆ Empty and clean the coffee filters every evening; remove the filter and brush the inside with a suita-
ble brush; soak the filters in hot water in order to dissolve coffee greases.
◆ Remove coffee residues from the drip tray, otherwise it could get clogged.
◆ Use the relevant blind filter supplied with the machine to wash the coffee spout with a special deter-
gent (obtainable from our repair centre points). Proceed as follows:
1- Insert the blind filter in the the filter holder and add the amount of detergent indicated on the pack.
2- Insert the filter holder into the group head.
3- Start brew cycle for 10 seconds and stop for 10 seconds. Repeat this operation for 5 times.
4- Remove the filter holder from group head. Start brew cycle and rinse the filter holder with the
boiling water from group head. Stop cycle.
5- Insert the filter holder into group head and repeat step 3 to rinse without detergent.
6- Replace the blind filter in the filter holder with the correct filter and make and discard an espresso.
◆ Clean the external parts of the machine with a damp cloth. Never use detergents or abrasive sub-
stances. Also for the interior hydraulic circuits must avoid to use aggressive and/or abrasive substanc-
es. Do not use jets of water to clean the machine.
◆ Capacitive keyboards cleaning: in the models with capacitive keyboards it is necessary to clean well
the keyboards without detergents, but only with hot water, taking care then to perfectly dry it with a
paper towel. The operation has to remove possible detergent residuals (or also of coffee cream) that,
being highly conductive create keyboard malfunctioning.
◆ To clean the filter holder and the filters, leave them to soak for at least 30 minutes in a solution of
hot water and detergent prepared in a plastic or stainless steel container. Rinse them with clean water.
◆ Never use metal accessories, wire or abrasive sponges to clean the filter housing.
◆ Periodically check that the parts subject to wear are intact (filter housing, filters, gaskets, shower
heads). Order original parts to a customer support centre.
