a dishwasher.

direction indicated by the arrow on the cap.

• Remove the frother from the container by pushing it

from the cap end.

thoroughly in hot water using a brush (fig. 23).

Make sure the holes in the metal filter are not

blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin (see fig. 24)

• Replace the filter and gasket on the plastic

disk as shown in fig. 25. Make sure to insert the pin

on the plastic disk into the hole in the gasket

unplugged from the mains.

IMPORTANT: during cleaning, never immerse the

coffee machine in water. It is an electrical appliance.

DESCALING

You are recommended to descale the coffee machine

about every 200 coffees.

You should use a commercially available product

specifically for descaling espresso coffee machines.

If such a product is not available, proceed as follows.

1.Fill the tank with half a litre of water.

2.Dissolve 2 spoonfuls (about 30 grams) of citric acid

(obtainable from chemist's).

3.Rotate the selector knob to the position and wait

until the OK indicator light comes on.

4.Make sure the filter holder is not attached and

position a recipient under the boiler outlet.

5.Rotate the selector knob to the position (fig. 8)

and run off half the solution in the tank.

Then interrupt the flow by rotating the selector to the

"O" position (fig. 14).

6.Leave the solution to work for about 15 minutes, then

run off the rest of the water in the tank.

7.To eliminate residues of solution and scale, rinse the

tank well, fill with clean water and replace in

position.

8.Rotate the selector knob to the position and run

off the water until the tank is completely empty;

9.Rotate the selector knob to the position and

repeat operations 7 and 8 again.

Repair of damage to the coffee machine caused by

scale is not covered by the guarantee unless descaling

is performed regularly as described above.
