Cleaning The Brewing Unit - AEG Electrolux CG 6400 Gebrauchsanweisung

0 Remove any remaining coffee beans
(you could use the vacuum cleaner
with the hose or crevice tool attach-
ment for this).
If a foreign object is impossible to
3
remove, contact the Customer Service
Centre.
Caution! Risk of injury from the mov-
1
ing grinder. Never switch the coffee
machine on when you are working on
the grinder. This can lead to severe
injuries. Before starting work, ensure
that the machine is unplugged from
the mains socket.
0 Use a small quantity of coffee beans to
test the proper operation of the
grinder by making a cup of coffee. The
first time the grinder is used, or after
cleaning, less ground coffee will enter
the brewing unit, because the channel
first has to be filled. This can influence
the first cup of coffee.

14.4 Cleaning the brewing unit

We advise you to clean the brewing
unit regularly (depending on how fre-
quently it is used). If your coffee
machine is to be left unused for some
time (e.g. holidays), empty the waste
coffee container and the water tank,
and thoroughly clean the coffee
machine, including the brewing unit.
Proceed as follows:
0 Turn the appliance off by pressing the
"On/Off" key (Fig. 11) (do not unplug)
and wait for the display to go off.
0 Unlock and open the service door at
the front by pushing the corresponding
opening button (Fig. 30).
0 Remove the drip tray and the waste
coffee container (Fig. 31) and clean
them.
0 Press the two red release buttons on
the brewing unit from the sides, press-
ing towards the centre (Fig. 32), and
pull it out.
3 Important: The brewing unit can only
be removed if the appliance is turned
off with the ON/OFF key
front of the machine. It should not be
disconnected from the mains.
Attempting to remove the brewing
unit when the appliance is on may
cause serious damage.
0 Wash the brewing unit under running
water, without using detergents. Never
wash the brewing unit in the dish-
washer.
0 Clean the inside of the appliance thor-
oughly. To remove coffee encrustations
from the inside of the appliance, scrape
with a plastic or wooden fork or similar
tool that does not scratch the surface
(Fig. 33), then vacuum up the residues
with a vacuum cleaner (Fig. 34).
0 Replace the brewing unit (Fig. 36, a) by
pushing it onto the holder (Fig. 36, b)
and pushing in the pin (Fig. 36, c). The
pin must be inserted into the pipe at
the bottom of the brewing unit
(Fig. 36, d).
0 Push the PUSH symbol (Fig. 36, e)
firmly in until the brewing unit clicks
into place.
0 After having heard the click, check that
the red buttons (Fig. 36, f) have
snapped out, otherwise the service
door cannot be closed.
Fig. 37: The two red buttons have
snapped out correctly.
Fig. 38: The two red buttons have not
snapped out.
0 Replace the drip tray, complete with
the waste coffee container.
0 Close the service door.
If the brewing unit is not inserted cor-
3
rectly, i.e. when you can hear that it
has clicked into place, and the two red
buttons have not snapped out cor-
rectly, the service door cannot be
closed.
If it is hard to insert the brewing unit,
3
before inserting it squeeze it to the
right heigth by pressing it firmly from
the top and bottom simultaneously, as
shown in figure 35.
