Water outlet, filter holder and filters
The filters and the filter holder must be rinsed with hot water after each use and then dried thoroughly.
To remove any remains of ground coffee from the water outlet, circulate water through it and wipe the inner edge with a
damp cloth.
If the filter holes are blocked with coffee grains, use a brush to remove them.
Important: If the filter continues to be blocked after normal cleaning, a cleaning spike has been supplied with the espresso
coffee maker. The cleaning spike for the filter is the grey spike (40). Insert the spike in each of the holes in the filter base (41).
Water outlet gasket
The water outlet gasket is located on the outlet bottom and provides a seal against the filter holder during brewing of the
espresso.
Note: We advise against leaving the filter holder fastened to the water outlet when the appliance is not being used for
long periods, as this would reduce the gasket's lifespan. With time, the gasket will lose elasticity and it will be necessary
to replace it, normally every 12 months depending on the amount of use. The symptoms that indicate when the gasket
needs replacing are when the filter holder cannot provide the necessary seal and steam leaks around the water outlet
during brewing.
Cup warming top plate and exterior
Clean the appliance exterior with a damp cloth and dry. Do not use abrasive products or metal scourers as they will scratch
the outer surface.
The steam wand
It is essential to keep the steam wand clean to ensure maximum steam efficiency. An accumulation of dried or caramelised
milk on the steam wand will adversely affect the steam function and the machine's ability to texturise (froth) the milk. It is
important to rinse the steam wand and clean it with a clean, damp cloth immediately after each use and to purge it with a
small amount of steam. If there are residues of dried or caramelised milk on the steam wand, simply wrap a clean, damp
cloth around the wand, point the wand towards the drip tray and let steam run through the wand for 10 seconds (42).
Leave the dampened cloth around the wand for a further 5 minutes and the residues of dried or caramelised milk will be
removed easily. Repeat the process if the wand requires further cleaning.
