Cleaning the jug and the accessories
The jug and the plastic accessories can be washed by hand with
a normal washing up liquid (do not use abrasive or descaling
products). They can also be washed in the dishwasher.
It is advisable to remove the blade unit before washing the jug.
Cleaning the tank
The tank and its cap should NOT be washed in a dishwasher:
they must be cleaned using soap and water and rinsed thor-
oughly. Do not use harsh cleaning agents such as bleach, or
ones containing chlorine or its compounds. Allow to dry with-
out inserting the cap.
If lime scale deposits form, fill the tank with a solution of equal
parts of cold tap water and white wine vinegar, leave for at least
10 hours then rinse thoroughly using cold water tap only. If
necessary, repeat the operation. Do not use descaling products
(liquids, powders, tablets etc.).
Cleaning the blade unit
To prevent/reduce the risk of oxidation and corrosion of the
blades, the blade unit must be cleaned and dried after every use.
Remove the blade unit from the jug, following the instructions
provided and clean it with soap and water or mild detergent,
paying close attention to the sharp part. Harsh detergents, such
bleach, may affect the steel, staining it and oxidising it perma-
nently. It is essential not use detergents that contain chlorine
or its compounds. Rinse thoroughly with running water and dry
immediately with a soft (non-abrasive) cloth, to prevent the
risk of oxidation and corrosion.
CAUTION: do not wash the blades in the dishwasher,
because the damp environment, coupled with the pres-
ence of salts, can lead to oxidising phenomena.
Cleaning the base
Unplug the appliance, allow it to cool down and clean it with a
damp cloth only. Do not put the base in the dishwasher or under
running water or immerse it in other liquids.
Rinsing the boiler (do this if it is has not been used for
over 8 hours)
Always remove any remaining water in the boiler by
gradually tilting the appliance, without turning it upside down
(fig. C) and cleaning inside it quickly.
a) Fill the boiler with 300 ml of cold tap water only (fig. D),
close the boiler cap and shake, then remove the cap and empty
the boiler, keeping the steam outlet closed and gradually tilt-
ing the appliance, without turning it upside down, to allow the
water to come out.
b) Repeat the previous step, closing the boiler cap and pouring
the water directly out of the steam outlet, ensuring that it is
not blocked.
c) Carefully clean the area near the steam outlet.
CAUTION: before removing the boiler cap, wait at
least 10 minutes for the appliance to cool down, to
prevent burns.
If necessary, perform descaling as shown in the paragraph below.
VIII. BOILER MAINTENANCE
To ensure proper operation of the product and maintenance of
the boiler, a complete descaling cycle must be performed pe-
riodically.
IMPORTANT: the formation of lime scale deposits in-
creases with the use of the product and the hardness of
the water used. Perform maintenance on the boiler at
least every 15 days or before storing the appliance for long peri-
ods.
a) Unplug the appliance, turn the dial to OFF
the appliance and the boiler have completely cooled.
IMPORTANT: If the product is not adequately cooled,
there may be boiling water and/or steam inside the boil-
er: be careful not to get burned.
b) Remove the jug and the tank from the base, unscrew the
boiler cap and drain it by tilting the appliance, without turning
it upside down.
c) Add a solution of 150 ml of cold tap water and 150 ml of
white wine vinegar into the boiler to remove any lime scale
deposits. Never use demineralised water or descaling products
(liquids, powders, tablets etc.) which could contain substances
that are toxic or not suitable for contact with foodstuffs. Never
add liquids and/or solutions other than the one specified, as
these could damage the appliance beyond repair.
d) Replace the boiler cap and leave the solution in for at least
10 hours.
e) After at least 10 hours, shake the product slightly, remove
the boiler cap and empty the boiler, keeping the steam outlet
closed and gradually tilting the appliance, without turning it
upside down (fig. C).
N.B. if any residue comes out, even if dark in colour, this is abso-
lutely normal as it is the deposits of salts dissolved in the water
which are removed by the descaling solution.
f) Refill the tank with 300 ml of cold tap water alone (fig. D),
close the boiler cap and shake the appliance briefly.
g) Remove the boiler cap and, keeping the steam outlet closed,
drain all the water, tilting the appliance gradually without turn-
ing it upside down.
h) Repeat steps f) and g) until no more residue comes out of
the boiler.
i) Repeat step f) and empty the tank by gradually tilting the ap-
pliance to the right, without turning it upside down, draining the
water out of the steam outlet, ensuring that it is not blocked.
j) Thoroughly dry up any water near the steam outlet or the base.
In the case of particularly resistant and/or abundant deposits
of lime scale, repeat the operation, increasing the percentage
of vinegar.
