15. CLEANING U
15.1 Cleaning the machine
The following parts of the machine must be cleaned regularly:
- the appliance’s internal circuit;
- coee grounds container (A10);
- drip tray (A15) and drip tray grille(A14);
- water tank (A22);
- coee spouts(A7);
- pre-ground coee funnel (A4);
- brewing unit (A6), extractable after opening the brewing
unit ap (A5);
- milk carafes (E) and (F)
- coee pot (D8) (see section “8.9 Cleaning the coee pot”);
- travel mug (D9) (see section “12.1 Cleaning the travel mug
after use”).
Important!
• Do not use solvents, abrasive detergents or alcohol to clean
the coee machine. With De’Longhi superautomatic coee
machines, no chemical products are required for cleaning
purposes.
• Do not use metal objects to remove encrustations or coee
deposits as they could scratch metal or plastic surfaces.

15.2 Cleaning the internal circuit
If the appliance is not used for more than 3/4 days, before using
it again, we strongly recommend switching it on and perform-
ing 2/3 rinse cycles by selecting the “Rinse” function (section
“6.1 Rinsing”).
Please note:
After cleaning, it is normal for the grounds container (A10) to
contain water.
15.3 Cleaning the coee grounds container
When “Please empty grounds container” appears on the display,
the grounds container must be emptied and cleaned. The ap-
pliance cannot be used to make coee until you have cleaned
the grounds container (A10). Even if not full, the empty grounds
container message is displayed 72 hours after the rst coee
has been prepared. 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 beverages one after the
other, the metal cup tray (A13) becomes hot. Wait for it to cool
down before touching it and handle it from the front only.
To clean (with the machine on):
1. Remove the drip tray (A15) and grounds container (A10)
(g. 28);
28
2. Empty the drip tray and grounds container and clean thor-
oughly to remove all residues left on the bottom. This can
be done using the spatula on the brush (D5) provided.
3. Put the drip tray complete with grille and grounds contain-
er back in the appliance.
Important!
When removing the drip tray, the grounds container must be
emptied, even if it contains only a few grounds. If this is not
done, when you make the next coees, the grounds container
will ll up more than expected and clog the machine.
15.4 Cleaning the drip tray and drip tray grille
Important!
The drip tray (A15) is tted with a level indicator (A20) (red)
showing the amount of water it contains (g. 29).

Before the indicator protrudes from the cup tray (A13), the drip
tray must be emptied and cleaned, otherwise the water may
overow the edge and damage the appliance, the surface it
