CLEANING THE UNIT
WITH THE AID OF THE
BLIND FILTER
The machine is pre-set for cleaning the delivery
unit with a specific washing powder.
We recommend carrying out a washing cycle at

Once the filter-holder has been removed,
repeat delivery operations a few times to eli-
minate any cleanser residues.
