MAINTENANCE
WARNING
• When servicing is required, ask a Makita authorized
service center which deals genuine replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
• To avoid serious personal injury, always remove
the battery cartridge from the unit when cleaning or
performing any maintenance.
• Do not immerse the appliance and battery in water or
other liquids.
Daily cleaning
NOTICE
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the like
when cleaning plastic parts. Discoloration, deformation
or cracks may result. After appliance cooled, use clean
clothes to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease etc.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.
• Do not dry the inside of the appliance with a cloth, as
lint may remain.
Proper maintenance will ensure years of service for
your appliance. Clean the appliance after every use to
maintain quality coffee avor.
1. Remove the battery from the appliance and allow the
appliance to cool.
2. Wipe the exterior with a soft cloth moistened with
water.
3. Remove the lter holder (with lter) or the cafe pod
holder from the appliance. Wash the removed parts
with soapy water. After that, rinse them with water.
4. Allow the appliance and all parts to dry completely.
Removing scales inside the appliance
Through the use of the appliance, water scale will build
up in the piping inside. Water scale hinders the water
ow and prolongs the dripping time as the result. If the
dripping time has become longer than before, clean the
inside piping with citric acid.
1. Take the water tank out and pour 240 ml of water into
it.
2. Add 5 g of citric acid commercially available into the
water and stir it up.
3. Install the water tank into the appliance.
4. Remove the lter holder/cafe pod holder from the
appliance.
5. Put a cup on the cup rest.
6. Press the power switch.
7. After the dripping is nished, take the water tank and
the coffee cup out and rinse them with water.
• After the brewing is nished, wait at least 5 minutes
before removing the lter holder/cafe pod holder.
• If another brewing cycle is to be started, wait at least
5 minutes before supplying water to the appliance.
Otherwise, steam and hot water could be released and
scalding may result.
• Do not touch the plate on the bottom of the appliance
during and immediately after brewing.
NOTE
• For brewing, do not use any other liquid than water.
• Always use cold water for brewing. Hot water promotes
the dripping speed and cause overow from the lter
holder/cafe pod holder.
• The maximum water tank capacity is 240ml. Do not
pour too much water to the water tank. Excess water
may come out of the overow opening.
