Cleaning and care
62
Waste unit
After a certain period of time a reminder
to empty the waste unit will appear in
the display. The waste unit must be
cleaned when this message appears.
However, it is better to clean the waste
unit every day to prevent a build-up of
bacteria.. There will probably also be
water in the waste unit left over from the
rinsing process. Clean the waste unit
daily.
The waste unit usually also contains
residual water from the rinsing proce-
dure.
The waste unit can be cleaned in the
dishwasher or by hand using warm
water and liquid dish soap. After
cleaning, dry the waste unit.
Also thoroughly clean the now acces-
sible area in the machine where the
waste unit sits.
Main dispenser
Clean all parts of the main dispenser
except for the stainless steel cover in
the dishwasher at least once a week.
This is the best way to remove coffee
deposits effectively.
Clean the main dispenser cover by
hand only using warm water and liquid
dish soap.
The main dispenser must be in the
maintenance position for cleaning. Oth-
erwise you will not be able to remove
the parts.
If there is a cup or container under-
neath the main dispenser, make sure
that you remove this as it would pre-
vent the main dispenser from moving
into the maintenance position.
Tap Main Menu or Back.
Select Maintenance and then Clean
the main dispenser.
Follow the instructions in the display.
The main dispenser will move into the
maintenance position .
Lift the cover forward and off .
