Automatic clean programmes

Automatic clean programme for the coffee circuit
The appliance will tell you when a clean programme is required. This clean must take place
every 360 preparations approximately.
To perform the clean programme, you will need a container with a capacity of at least 0.6 litre;
this should be placed under the coffee outlets and you will need a KRUPS cleaning tablet.
Follow the instructions on-screen. It is also possible to launch cleaning via the maintenance
menu.
!
Important: you do not have to perform the clean programme immediately when the
appliance requests this; however, you should do this as soon as possible. If
cleaning is delayed, an alert message
operation is performed.
The automatic clean programme includes two phases: a clean and a rinse cycle; the
programme takes about 13 minutes.
!
Important: if you disconnect your appliance during cleaning or in the event of a power cut,
the cleaning programme will resume the stage in progress during the incident. It
will not be possible to delay this operation. It is mandatory due to water circuit
rinse reasons. In this case, a new cleaning tablet may be required. Run the entire
cleaning programme to eliminate all traces of cleaning product that may be
harmful to health.
Do not place your hands under the coffee outlets during the cycle.
