Cleaning the Machine

- Never wash your espresso machine
accessories in the dishwasher.
After use, the water tank must be emptied.
. Drip tray
If several espressos are being prepared one
after the other, the drip tray should be
emptied from time to time (about once every
7 - 8 espressos) (19). The presence of water is
normal and does not signify a leak. If
necessary, clean the drip tray and its grid with
water and a little non-abrasive washing-up
liquid, rinse and dry. Replace it correctly (20).
. The brewing head, the filter and the
filter holder
These must be cleaned after each use. All you
need to do is wipe with a damp cloth over the
brewing head of your machine and to wash
the other accessories in water and a little non-
abrasive dishwashing liquid, rinse and dry.
If the brewing head is heavily clogged up,
unscrew the grid, clean it and refit it, pressing
down firmly (21).
When your espresso machine is not being
used, do not leave the filter holder on the
machine as it will cause unnecessary wear of
the gasket
. The cup warming plate: remove this to
clean it with water and a little non-abrasive
dishwashing liquid, rinse and dry.
. The auto cappuccino accessory
For more thorough cleaning the auto cappuc-
cino accessory can be dismantled from the
machine.
Clean it with water, a little non-abrasive
dishwashing liquid and a small brush. Rinse
(16)
and dry it before refitting it.
Please note the direction of fitting the flexible
tube : engage the straight-cut end in the auto
cappuccino accessory.
