CLEANING
• To remove the used grounds, remove the filter and filter holder from the
coffee maker. Fig. 15a.
• Discard the coffee grounds and the filter paper. Fig. 15b.
• Do not clean the appliance if it is still hot.
• Wash the removable filter holder using hot soapy water.
CAUTION: Do not put the parts of the coffee maker in the dishwasher.
• Clean the coffee maker using a damp soft cloth or
sponge. Never use abrasive or strong products on
any part of your coffee maker.
• To clean the stainless steel parts of your coffee
maker, moisten a soft cloth or sponge with hot
water. Wipe them well using a dry cloth.
• For stubborn stains, use a cloth with some white
vinegar.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water or under
the tap.
DESCALING
Why is descaling important?
• Limescale builds up naturally in your coffee maker. Descaling helps to
protect the coffee maker, ensure a longer service life and consistently
high-quality coffee over time. Limescale may permanently alter the
appliance's performance.

When is it time to descale?
• The frequency of descaling depends on water hardness and the number
of coffee cycles. When users observe signs such as extended cycle
lengths, intense boil-off, loud noise levels at the end of the cycle or
stoppage during a cycle, this means your machine requires descaling.
• Descaling the coffee maker must be performed approximately once a
month, depending on the water hardness.
How to descale your coffee maker
• Use a descaling solution or 0.5 L of white vinegar diluted in 0.5 L of cold
or warm water. Fig. 16.
• Pour the solution into the water tank. Fig. 17.
• Do not put any coffee in the filter and press the ON/OFF button (J) to
start the descaling cycle. Fig. 18.
• Please wait until the end of the cycle.
• To rinse the machine, start 2 complete 10-cup cycles with water, but
without coffee.
• Repeat the operation as needed.
• The guarantee does not cover coffee makers that are inoperative or
which run badly due to a lack of descaling.
