TO DELIME WATER RESERVOIR:
1. Fill the reservoir with fresh, undiluted white household vinegar.
2. Allow appliance to sit overnight with the vinegar solution in the water
reservoir.
3. Discard vinegar by removing the reservoir and turning it upside down
over the sink.
4. Rinse the water reservoir thoroughly with tap water by filling tank half full
with water and then pouring the water back out into the sink, repeating
this step twice.
TO DELIME INTERNAL PARTS:
1. Make sure you delime the inside of the water reservoir first by following
the “Deliming” steps above.
2. Make sure to switch the on/off button to the off “O” position and the
power cord is disconnected from the electrical outlet. Fill the reservoir
half way with white vinegar.
3. Insert the porta-filter (with filter and no coffee) and place jar/carafe or
regular cup on top of the drip tray and under the porta-filter.
4. Plug the power cord into the electrical outlet.
5. Press the on/off button to switch the unit on “I”, once the 3 control
panel illuminates solidly, press the the Espresso/Custom Button twice. The
vinegar will start flowing through the unit and it will stop automatically.
6. Place a pitcher or large cup (with at least 325 mL/ 11-ounce capacity)
under the tube. Fill the milk reservoir with water and place it back on
the unit. Turn the Froth Control Knob clockwise to the clean position “
” then press the latte/clean button for 3 seconds to activate the clean
function. The unit will start releasing steam through the frothing tube for
30 seconds. When done, throw the contents of the cup away.
7. Repeat Steps 1 – 6 as necessary using only tap water to rinse any
remaining traces of vinegar out of the machine.
3. Attach the porta-filter (without coffee grounds) back onto the unit.
4. Make sure there is water in the water reservoir.
5. Place a large empty cup under the porta-filter and brew a single shot of
espresso.
NOTE: When completed, do not store the porta-filter by leaving attached to
the unit. This can adversely affect the seal between the brew head and the
porta-filter when brewing espresso.
CLEANING THE WATER RESERVOIR
Discard the remaining water by removing the reservoir and turning it upside
down over the sink. It is recommended to empty the water reservoir between
uses. Wash the water reservoir with soapy water, rinse it well and wipe it dry.
Do not wash the water reservoir in the dishwasher.
DEEP CLEANING THE FILTER
Make sure to deep clean your filer every 90 days for optimal brewing
performance. Follow these disassembly instructions and rinse the pieces
in a large bowl of warm water. Once rinsed thoroughly, wipe dry and
reassemble.
CLEANING THE UNIT
1. Wipe housing with a soft wet cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or
scouring pads, as they will scratch the finish.
2. Do not store the porta-filter in the brew head. This can adversely affect the
seal between the brew head and the porta-filter while brewing espresso.
CAUTION: Do not immerse appliance in water or other liquids.
DELIMING
Mineral deposits built-up in the unit will affect the operation of the appliance.
Your appliance must be delimed when you begin to notice an increase in the
time required to brew espresso, or when there is excessive steaming. Also,
you may notice a build-up of white deposits on the surface of the brew head.
The frequency of cleaning depends upon the hardness of the water used. The
following table gives the suggested cleaning intervals.
SUGGESTED CLEANING INTERVALS
