Espresso fi lter cleaning containing ground coffee
Make sure the coffee dispensing hole is not obstructed and, if need be, clean it by means of a pin (Fig.9).
Make the fi lter holder dispense hot water with the fi lter mounted without powder to dissolve or remove
possible coffee remains or impurities.

Remove and slowly disconnect the fi lter holder as the possible residual pressure could cause squirts
or splashes.
SIt is recommended to clean the fi lters (18-19-20) with care approximately every 3 months by using
the suitable detergent tablets available at the selling points and the Authorized Service Centers and
following the instructions on the packaging or, alternatively, by using a simple cleaner tablet (without
sparkling aid or other chemical additives) for dishwasher as follows:
• Insert a dishwasher tablet into the fi lter (without coffee) when the appliance is very hot (after at least
5 heating minutes).
• Insert one of the three fi lters into the fi lter holder (22).
• Close the fi lter holder with the handgrip facing left and rotate it tightly to the right.
• Place a container big enough under the fi lter holder.
• Rotate the steam handgrip to the closed ‘●’ position.
• Press the button 1 cup/2 cups (I), then press and maintain the button “ESPRESSO” (L) pressed to start
water dispensing and dispense water for 15-20 seconds.
• Stop dispensing and let the tablet work for at least 15 minutes by maintaining the fi lter holder inserted
in the appliance.
• Repeat the water dispensing procedure by letting the pump work for approximately 15-20 seconds,
then leaving it to rest for other 15-20 seconds until two water tanks are exhausted.
• Remove the fi lter holder from the appliance, take the fi lter out and rinse it under running water tho-
roughly.
• Turn the appliance off by pressing the button 1 cup/ 2 cups (I) three times, disconnect the power sup-
ply from the plug socket and clean the fi lter holder fastening seat with a sponge to remove possible
cleaner remains.
• Switch the appliance on again, reposition the fi lter holder and dispense at least 2 water cups to com-
plete the rinse cycle.
If the coffee maker is used on a daily basis, it is recommended to carry out the cleaning procedure every
three months.
Cleaning the fi lter holder seat
With time, coffee residue may accumulate on the fi lter holder seat. It can be removed with a toothpick, a
sponge (Fig. 9), or by letting water run through without fi tting the fi lter holder.
Cleaning the steam pipe
Warning!
Perform this operation when the chrome-plated pipe is cold so as to prevent burns.
Disconnect the cappuccino maker (14) from the steam pipe(13) (Fig. 10). Wash it with running
water. The steam pipe can be cleaned with a non-abrasive cloth. Put the cappuccino maker
back on as far as it will go. If necessary, clean the small steam outlet hole again with a pin (Fig.
10). After use, always let the steam nozzle run for a few seconds so to free the outlet from any
possible residue.
