Check that the holes are not clogged and if so, clean them with a small brush (Fig. 11). Dispense boiling water from the lter
holder with the lter inside, without coffee grounds, after placing a glass underneath the dispenser in order to dissolve or
remove any coffee residue or impurities.

Slowly remove and disconnect the lter holder because any remaining pressure could cause splashes or squirts.
It is advisable to thoroughly clean the lter about every 3 months using Ariete COFFEE CLEAN detergent tabs, which can
be found at retail stores and the Authorised Service Centres, following the instructions inside the package. As an alternative,
you can use a simple dishwasher detergent tab (without added rinse aid or other chemical additives) as follows:
• Put a dishwasher detergent tab into the lter (without coffee) when the machine is hot (after heating for at least ve minutes).
Couple the lter holder to the machine and put a container underneath the lter holder.
Put the switch (O) in the coffee position ( ) to start dispensing water, then dispense water for 15-20 seconds.
Stop the water supply and let the tab act for at least 15 minutes while keeping the lter holder coupled on the machine.
Repeat the water dispensing operation by operating the pump for about 15-20 seconds, and then letting it rest for another
15-20 seconds, until two tanks of water are used up.
Remove the lter holder from the machine, remove the lter and rinse it well under running tap water.
Turn off the machine, disconnect the power cable from the socket-outlet and clean the coupling seat of the lter holder
with a sponge in order to remove any detergent residue from the shower disc.
Turn the machine back on, couple the lter holder once again and dispense at least 2 cups of water again to complete the
rinsing.
If the coffee machine is used daily, it is advisable to carry out the cleaning operation at least every three months.

Place a glass underneath the lter holder with the holder connected, but without the pod inside. Position the switch (O) to
coffee brewing ( ): the water will start coming out of the spouts of the lter holder. In this way any coffee residue or impuri-
ties present in the lter holder will dissolve and be removed.

Wash the silicone disc (E) under running water, bending it slightly on the sides in order to free the centre hole of any residue

With time, coffee residue may accumulate on the lter holder seat. It can be removed with a toothpick, a sponge (Fig. 13),

Perform this operation when the chrome-plated pipe is cold so as to prevent burns.
Unscrew the device (J) from the small pipe and wash it with running water. The small pipe can be cleaned with a non-
abrasive cloth. Screw the cappuccino maker back on as far as it will go. If necessary, clean the small steam outlet hole
again with a pin. After use, always let the steam nozzle run for a few seconds so to free the outlet from any possible residue.
