9. MAINTENANCE
All maintenance operations must be carried
out with the machine off and cold and with
the power plug disconnected.
Use a damp cloth or sponge for cleaning. Do
not use any metallic or abrasive materials for
cleaning (such as scourers, metal brushes,
needles or detergents).
9.1. Daily (Fig.5)
Clean the bodywork, the steam wand* (7), the
diffuser (19) and the cup-base seal (20) of group
head (12).
Check and clean the discharge drawer (11) as
required.
Rinse filters (14/15) and the portafilter (13) using
hot water and a cloth or sponge.
It is very important to clean the steam wand
(7) with a damp cloth or sponge after each
use, as well as discharging any milk residue
from the wand by opening the steam tap (6)
briefly, then closing again.
9.2. Periodically or after a period of intensive
machine use
Do the following in addition to the “Daily” operations:
Immerse filters (14/15) and the portafilter (13) in
boiling water for a few minutes to allow the coffee
grease to dissolve, then remove using a sponge
or a cloth.

ning products’ packaging. For information
concerning the choice of the cleaning pro-
duct, contact the retailer.

livery tube (18) (Fig.6) as far as possible into the
water tank.
