a soft cloth. Do not spray the keypad or
display with any liquid. Clean only with a
damp soft cloth.
6. Cleaning the Hot Water and Steam Nozzles.
Steam nozzles must be cleaned
immediately after use with a damp cloth
and by producing a short burst of steam
so as to prevent the formation of deposits
inside the nozzles themselves, which
may alter the avor of other drinks to
be heated. Hot water nozzles must be
cleaned periodically with a damp cloth. If
milk residue is present on the steam wand,
soak the tip in a container of hot water,
then it will be possible to wipe the tip
clean. Repeat process if residue remains.
NOTE: This cleaning schedule is based
upon a moderate to average use (20-
300) cups per day. If machine use is less
than moderate then this schedule may be
adjusted accordingly.
Cleaning (Periodic)
1. Draining Boilers. Both the coffee boiler
and the steam boiler may be drained and
relled to reduce the chance of mineral
deposits build up on the inside walls of the

the waste drain.
Drain the Coffee Boiler: Turn OFF the
machine. Using adequate protection or
an appropriate tool, loosen the expansion
valve until water begins to ow freely. Then
