If there is pressure, close the steam release valve and proceed as follows to release the pressure. Pressure Releasing 1. Hold a pitcher of water under the steam wand and immerse the frothing nozzle into the water. 2. Slowly open the steam release valve and allow the steam to vent into the water. 3.

Remove and clean the espresso filter holder, filter cup, brew basket, overflow grid, grid base, carafes and covers in a solution of warm water and mild liquid soap. Rinse thoroughly and dry. 4. If there is water left in the boiler chamber or the coffee water reservoir, empty through the top opening of the unit by turning upside down. Note: Do not clean the inside of the water reservoir or boiler chamber with a cloth or paper toweling as this may leave particles in the chambers that may clog small openings in your coffeemaker.

Clean the frothing nozzle and the steam wand thoroughly with a solution of warm water and mild liquid soap. Rinse thoroughly and replace the rubber-frothing nozzle onto the steam wand. 6.

CLEANING YOUR 3 IN 1 COFFEE CENTER - CLEANING THE STEAM NOZZLE • Milk residuals will build up in the tip of the steam nozzle after frothing milk. It is very important that after you remove the frothing nozzle, you wipe the steam nozzle clean with a damp cloth after each use. This will help prevent the steam nozzle from clogging and will ensure good frothing results. Should the steam nozzle become clogged, proceed as follows: 1. Ensure switches are in the "OFF" position, the appliance is unplugged from electrical outlet, all pressure has been released and the appliance has cooled completely. 2. Remove the rubber frothing nozzle and the steam nozzle using the tool on the end of the coffee measure spoon provided with your machine. 3. Clean the nozzle with warm water and ensure the small hole in the end is clear. 4. Reattach the steam nozzle, tighten steam nozzle securely and slide the rubber- frothing nozzle onto the steam wand. 10
