Important!
When removing the drip tray, the grounds container must
always be emptied, even if it has not filled up appreciably. If
this is not done, when you make the next coffees, the grounds
container may fill up more than expected and clog the machine.

11.4 Cleaning the drip tray

The drip tray (A19) is fitted with a level indicator (A20) (red)
showing the amount of water it contains (fig. 20). Before the
indicator protrudes from the cup tray (A18), the drip tray must
be emptied and cleaned, otherwise the water may overflow the
edge and damage the appliance, the surface it rests on or the
surrounding area.
