Instruction Manual

11. Turning OFF the EC Select
• After making the last coee wait for approx. 15 seconds so that the thermoblock
can release any steam and rest-water into the tray. This is perfectly normal.
• Now switch the ON/OFF switch to the o position to turn o the machine. The
red indicator light is o.
Note: When not in use remove the portalter. This will extend the life of the seal
inside the brew head.
12. Auto Shut OFF
The Auto Shut OFF function will turn o the unit automatically if there is no
operation within 25 minutes.
13. Cleaning & Maintenance
• Always disconnect the plug from the wall outlet and allow the appliance to cool
down before cleaning.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid.
• Do not use harsh abrasives to clean. Wipe down the appliance housing with
a damp cloth
• Wipe the brew head with a damp cloth.
Caution: HOT! Danger of burning or scalding!
• Rinse the fresh water tank, the support grid and tray regularly with water.
• Empty the drip tray regularly or when drip tray oat level indicator pops up from
drip tray.
• If the inner screen inside the brew head accumulates coee oils, it can be
unscrewed for thorough cleaning.
Note: When removing the water tank, small water droplets might accumulate on
the receptacle for the valve. Wipe o the water droplets to avoid water running
down in the back of the machine.
• Cleaning the Steam Wand and Frothing Sleeve see chapter 10.
14. Decalcifying
When making espresso, always use cold clean water. Using spring water or
ltered water will slow down calcium build up. The red indicator and white
indicator will blink alternately when the coee machine has performed enough
coee brewing or milk frothing function, which means that the coee machine
needs to be decalcied. When using commercial decalcifying agents it is
important to follow their instructions. You can also use Capresso Cleaning
Solution, available at www.capresso.com. Dissolve 1 packet of Capresso
Cleaning Solution with 40 oz. of water and add to the water tank.
Note: Do not use vinegar as this will considerably shorten the life of the seal
inside the brew head.
a. Add decalcifying agent or Capresso Cleaning Solution mixed with water into
the water tank. Remove the portalter and place a bowl beneath the brew
head.
b. Turn the selector dial to the left cup symbol, the Cleaning Solution will be
pumped through the brew head with the portalter attached for approximately
60 seconds and then stop. Turn the selector dial to the middle and leave the
Cleaning Solution in the appliance for approximately 5 minutes.
c. Place a cup under the steam wand and turn the selector dial to the right. The
steam wand will begin to dispense hot steam into the cup and will stop after
approximately 60 seconds. Turn the selector dial to the middle setting.
