Cleaning the inside of the coffee maker

1.  Check regularly (about once a week) that the inside of the 

appliance is not dirty.  

If necessary, remove coffee deposits with the brush (C8) 
supplied and a sponge.

2.  Remove the residues with a vacuum cleaner (fig. 30).

Cleaning the brewing unit

The brewing unit must be cleaned at least once a month.

Important! 

The brewing unit (A5) must not be re-

moved when the appliance is on. 
Do not use force to remove the brewing unit.  

1.  Make sure the machine is correctly turned off (see “Turning 

the appliance off”). 

2.  Open the service door (fig. 26).
3.  Remove the drip tray and waste coffee container (fig. 27);
4.  Press the two red release buttons inwards and at the same 

time pull the brewing unit outwards (fig. 31).

Important!

Do not use washing up liquid to clean the 

brewing unit. It would remove the lubricant applied to the inside 
of the piston.

5.  Soak the brewing unit in water for about 5 minutes, then 

rinse. 

Use the brush (C8) to remove any coffee residues left in the 
unit.

6.   After cleaning, replace the brewing unit (A5) by sliding it 

onto the internal support and pin at the bottom, then push 
the PUSH symbol fully in until it clicks into place.

 N.B.: 

 If the brewing unit is difficult to insert, you must 

first adapt it to the right dimensions by pressing it forcefully 

from the bottom and top as shown in the figure. 

7.   Once inserted, make sure the two red buttons have snapped 

out.

8.  Replace the drip tray and waste coffee container.
9.  Close the service door.

Cleaning the milk container

Important!

Note 3 in the section “Making cappuccino”.  
All components can be washed in a dishwasher, placing them in 
the top basket of the dishwasher.
