• Remove the steam nozzle from the delivery spout by pulling it downwards (Fig. 26).
• Carefully wash the milk frother and the steam nozzle in warm water.
• Check that the two holes indicated by the arrows in Fig. 27 are not clogged. If necessary, clean them using a needle or pin.
• Replace the steam nozzle by inserting it and vigorously turning it upwards into the steam spout.
10 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Do not immerse the machine in the water: it is an electrical applian­ce.
• Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean the coffee maker. A soft damp cloth will suffice.
• The components of the machine must not be washed in the dishwa­sher.
10.1 CLEANING THE COFFEE MAKER
•Clean the grounds container (as described in chapter 5, note 6) whenever the light comes on.
• The water tank should be cleaned regularly.
• The drip tray is fitted with a level indicator (red) showing the level of water inside. When the indicator starts to protrude from the cup support tray, the drip tray must be emptied and cleaned.
• Check that the holes in the coffee delivery spout are not blocked. To clean them, scrape the dry coffee residues with a needle (Fig. 28).
10.2 CLEANING THE INFUSER
The infuser must be cleaned very frequently to prevent it from filling with coffee deposits (that may lead to malfunctions). To clean it, proceed as fol­lows:
• turn the machine off and
wait for all the indicator lights to go off;
• open the service door (Fig. 15);
•remove the drip tray and the grounds container (Fig. 16) and clean them;
•press the two red release buttons on the infuser sideways (Fig. 28) and pull it out;
WARNING: the infuser can only be removed when the machine is off. Attempting to remove the infuser with the machine on will risk causing damage.
• wash the infuser under running water, without using detergents.
Never wash the infuser in the dishwasher;
