• Lock the portalter into the group head.
• Ensure the water tank is lled with cold water
and the drip tray is empty.

• When the cleaning cycle has nished,
remove the portalter and ensure the tablet
has completely dissolved. If the tablet has
not dissolved, repeat these steps, without
inserting a new tablet.
• Rinse the lter basket and portalter thoroughly
before use.
• Extract an espresso to "season" the machine
and purge the system of any remaining cleaner.
INSTALLING THE WATER FILTER
• Discard the used water lter. Soak a new lter
in a cup of water for 5 minutes, then rinse under
cold running water.
• Wash the lter holder with cold water.
• Insert the lter into the two parts of the lter
holder.
• To install the assembled lter holder into the
water tank, align the base of the lter holder
with the adapter inside the water tank. Push

• Fill the water tank with cold water before sliding
back into position at the back of the machine
and locking into place.
• Replacing the water lter after three months
or 40L will reduce the need to descale the
machine. The limitation of 40L is based on water
hardness level 4. If you are in level 2 area, you
can increase this to 60L.

CLEANING THE STEAM WAND
IMPORTANT
After every use, thoroughly wipe the
steam wand and tip with a damp cloth &
purge immediately. Failure to clean the
steam wand may aect the milk texturing
performance.
• If any of the holes in the tip of the steam wand
become blocked, ensure the steam lever is in
the centre OFF position and unblock using the
steam tip cleaning tool. Even partially blocked
holes may aect the ability of the steam wand
to produce sucient foam volume.
• If steam wand remains blocked, remove the
tip and soak together with steam wand using
the provided steam wand cleaning powder
(instructions below). Screw tip back onto the
steam wand after rinsing.
• The steam wand can be left immersed
in the milk jug lled with water when not
in use to reduce the risk of blockages.
