. The brewing head, the filter and the

filter holder

These must be cleaned after each use. All you

need to do is wipe a damp cloth over the

brewing head of your appliance and to wash

the other accessories in water and a little non-

abrasive washing-up liquid, rinse and dry.

If the brewing head is heavily clogged up,

unscrew the grid using a coin, clean it and

refit it, pressing down firmly (21).

When your espresso is not being used, do not

leave the filter holder on the appliance to

prevent wear on the gasket.

. The cup warming plate: remove this to

clean it with water and a little non-abrasive

washing-up liquid, rinse and dry.

. The cappuccino accessory

For more thorough cleaning the cappuccino

accessory can be dismantled from the

appliance.

Descaling

• Descaling of your espresso should be done

fairly frequently with citric or tartaric acid.

• Use caution when descaling your espresso

machine as the acid substance within the

descaling poweder may damage countertops

or any other surface it comes in conatct

with.

• The guarantee does not include

espresso machines which do not

function, or do not function properly,

because descaling has not been carried

out.

However, we would advise you to use the

Krups descaling accessory, reference F054,

which is available from Krups after-sales

service centres. This accessory includes, apart

from two descaling doses, a testing strip for

water hardness to assess the frequency of

descaling of your appliance in normal use.

Descaling depends on the hardness of the

water, but also on the use cycle. The frequently

of descaling indicated by the F054 accessory is

thus given by way of indication only.

- Then follow the following method:

• Unscrew the grid from the brewing head of

the appliance and clean it (21).

• Dissolve a sachet of KRUPS descaling

accessory, reference F054, in half a litre of

lukewarm water and pour the whole lot into

the empty water tank.

• Place a container under the brewing head.

Run through about 1/3 of the liquid

immediately, setting the selector to the

position (9).

• Stop the appliance, leaving the position

(9) engaged and wait for 10 - 15 minutes to

allow the descaler to take effect.

• Next, start the machine again and allow the

rest of the liquid to run through.

•

Then rinse with two water tanks of fresh

water, clean the brewing head and replace the

grid on the head of the appliance (see

paragraph on maintenance).
