Cleaning and Maintenance
1. Before cleaning turn off the machine. The filter holder, filter and overflow plate can be put
in the dishwasher's upper rack, away from the drying element.
2. The machine can be wiped off with the help of a damp cloth. If there is water left in the
boiler chamber, let the machine cool down, remove all loose parts and empty through the
top opening by turning upside down.
3. For cleaning the steam nozzle remove all milk particles using a sewing needle and rinse
under the faucet.
4. Wipe off the outside of the nozzle with a wet cloth. Hold the wet cloth very close to the tip
of the nozzle and open the steam valve. Let the steam escapes into the wet cloth for one or
two seconds, then close the valve.
5. The overflow plate can be cleaned by removing the plate.
Decalcifying of the Espresso
1. The espresso machine must be decalcified regularly. The frequency depends upon the
hardness of water and how often you use the machine.
2. Before descaling, remove the filter and filter holder and clean them separately.
3. Remove all lime and coffee residue from the filter and the filter holder.
4. Dissolve two tablespoons of citric acid in the lukewarm water and pour it into the boiler
container, put one container under the espresso outlet and another under the steam nozzle.
5. Open the steam valve and turn on the appliance. Allow the descaling solution to run out of
the espresso outlet and the steam nozzle.
6. After each brewing turn off the appliance and allow it to cool down.
7. Repeat this operation once again with Citric acid solution. Then use clean water instead of
citric acid to run through the system. Turn off the appliance. Allow the appliance to cool
down. Insert the filter and other accessories and the coffee maker is ready to use.
