13.2 Cleaning the internal circuit
If the machine is not used for more than 3/4 days, it is strongly
advisable, before using it after such a break, to empty the tank
(A9) and rell it with fresh drinking water, then switch on and
run 2/3 rinse cycles selecting the “Rinse” function (section “6.1
Rinsing”).
Please note:
It can happen, during the rinse procedure, that water will nd
its way into the grounds container (A10): this is quite normal.
13.3 Cleaning the coee grounds container
When “Empty grounds container” appears on the display, the
grounds container must be emptied and cleaned. The machine
cannot make coee again until the grounds container (A10) has
been cleaned. The machine will display the message indicating
the need to empty the grounds container 72 hours after the rst
coee has been prepared, even if the container is not full (for the
72 hours to be calculated correctly, the machine must never be
disconnected from the mains power supply).
Important! Danger of scalding
If you make a number of milk-based drinks one after the other,
the metal cup tray (A11) becomes hot. Wait for it to cool down
before touching it and handle it from the front only.
