purposes.
•
Do not use metal objects to remove encrustations or coffee

16.2 Cleaning the internal circuit
If the appliance is not used for more than 3/4 days, before using
it again, we strongly recommend switching it on and perform-
ing 2/3 rinse cycles by selecting the "Rinse" function (section
"7.1 Rinsing").
Please note:
After cleaning, it is normal for the grounds container (A10) to
contain water.
16.3 Cleaning the coffee grounds container
When "Please empty grounds container" appears on the display,
the grounds container must be emptied and cleaned. The ap-
pliance cannot be used to make coffee until you have cleaned
the grounds container (A10). Even if not full, the empty grounds
container message is displayed 72 hours after the first coffee
hand wash only

has been prepared. For the 72 hours to be calculated correctly,
the machine must never be disconnected from the mains power
supply.
Important! Danger of scalding
If you make a number of milk-based drinks one after the other,
the metal cup tray (A13) becomes hot. Wait for it to cool down
before touching it and handle it from the front only.
To clean (with the machine on):
1. Remove the drip tray (A15) and grounds container (A10)
(fig. 28);
2. Empty the drip tray and grounds container and clean thor-
oughly to remove all residues left on the bottom. This can
be done using the spatula on the brush (D5) provided.
3. Put the drip tray complete with grille and grounds contain-
er back in the appliance.
Important!
When removing the drip tray, the grounds container must be
emptied, even if it contains only a few grounds. If this is not
done, when you make the next coffees, the grounds container
will fill up more than expected and clog the machine.
16.4 Cleaning the drip tray and drip tray grille
Important!
The drip tray (A15) is fitted with a level indicator (A20) (red)
showing the amount of water it contains (fig. 29).
Before the indicator protrudes from the cup tray (A13), the drip
tray must be emptied and cleaned, otherwise the water may
overflow the edge and damage the appliance, the surface it
