Cleaning and storing the machine
Keep the machine at its best by cleaning and storing it properly. Since the machine uses natural
ingredients as brew beverages (coffee beans, water, milk, etc.), some residues of ground coffee
or condensed water could be present on its supporting surface. For this reason we recommend
to periodically clean both the visible parts of the machine and the area beneath it.
Before storing the machine we strongly recommend you thoroughly clean it.
Water left in the tank and/or in the water circuit for several days should not be consumed. If the
machine is going to remain inactive for a long time, dispense water as described in the “hot
water”section.
Turn off the power button and clean the machine. Finally, remove the plug from the socket. Wait
for the machine to cool down.
Never immerse the machine in water! Store it in a dry place, out of the reach of children. Keep it
protected from dust and dirt. It is strictly forbidden to tamper with the internal parts of the
machine.
Fire Safety Precaution
In the event of fire, use a carbon dioxide (Co2) extinguisher. Do not use water or dry powder
extinguishers.
Preliminary Operations
•NEVER remove the drip tray when the machine is on. Wait for a couple of minutes after
turning on/off, as the machine will be carrying out a rinse/self-cleaning cycle (see
“rinse/self-cleaning cycle” section).
•Fill the tank only with fresh, non-sparkling water. Hot water or any other liquid may
damage the tank and/or the machine. Do not operate the machine without water. Make
sure there is enough water in the tank.
•Only coffee beans must be put into the coffee bean tank. Ground coffee, instant coffee or
any other substance in the coffee bean tank may damage the machine.

Warning: The coffee grinder contains moving parts that may be dangerous. Do not insert fingers
and/or other objects into the grinder. In case of malfunction, turn off the appliance by pressing
the power button and remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any other type of
operation inside the coffee bean tank. Do not pour coffee beans into the tank while the coffee
grinder is working.

burning. The device may reach high temperatures so do not touch it with bare hands.

sharp objects or harsh chemical products (solvents) for cleaning. Use a soft, dampened cloth to
