10.2 CLEANING THE INFUSER The infuser must be cleaned regularly to prevent it from filling with coffee deposits (that may lead to malfunctions). To clean it, proceed as follows: • turn the machine off by pressing the button (Fig. 4) (do not unplug it) and wait for all the indicator lights to go off; • open the service door (Fig. 15); • remove the drip tray and the grounds container (Fig. 16) and clean them; • press the two red release buttons on the infuser sideways and towards the center (Fig. 29) and pull it out; WARNING: THE INFUSER CAN ONLY BE REMOVED WHEN THE MACHINE IS OFF. ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE THE INFUSER WITH THE MACHINE ON MAY CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE. • wash the infuser under running water, without using detergents. Never wash the infuser in the dishwasher; • carefully clean the inside of the machine. To remove the coffee stuck to the parts inside the machine, scrape it with a plastic or wooden fork (Fig. 30) and then pick up all the residues using a vacuum cleaner (Fig. 31); • Replace the infuser by sliding it onto the supports and the pin at the bottom; then push the PUSH symbol fully in until until it clicks into place. 15 Fig.29 Fig.30 Support Pin Infuser Push the PUSH symbol fully in until until it clicks into place.
