Care and Cleaning Instructions
Before cleaning or removing parts, unplug the machine and allow to
cool completely.
Hint: When the Overflow Tray is full, the red flag will pop up to
alert you it needs to be emptied. Make sure the machine is
fully cooled. Simply pull tray straight out and pour out into
your sink until it is empty. Clean and slide back into
machine securely.
Used Pod
Container
DISPOSE OF USED COFFEE PODS AFTER EVERY DAY’S USE.
The Used Pod Container slides out easily so you can dispose of
the used pods in your garden (they’re biodegradable) or in a
waste receptacle.
1. The Detachable Water Tank, Water Overflow Tray and Cup
Rest Grill can be washed in hot, soapy water. Rinse and use a
soft cloth to dry.
2. Wipe down the external parts with a soft cloth or sponge. Do not
use harsh abrasive cleaners or brushes as they may scratch the
surface.
3. Occasionally the Infusion System will need to be brushed out.
Lift Hood and gently brush coffee grounds out from the housing.
A soft toddler’s toothbrush is ideal for this purpose.
4. If the Steam Nozzle/Frothing Attachment is used, remove
frothing attachment and separate frothing tip from frothing
attachment by turning counter-clockwise. Wash in hot,
soapy water. Rinse by running water over and through both
pieces and dry. Replace tip back on to attachment by
turning clockwise. Place Steam Nozzle in position with the
small pressure relief hole turned towards the machine.

Cappuccino/Coffee Drinks
(continued)
9. When making froth for cappuccino, hold the Frothing
Attachment below the surface of the cold milk. Do not touch the
bottom of the pitcher with the Frothing Attachment. While frothing,
move the pitcher in a circular motion then up and down for best
results. This allows the steam to mix with air to create rich, creamy
froth. Foam should be dense with small, closely packed bubbles
for rich taste and long-lasting foam.
10. Wipe the Frothing Attachment with a clean, damp cloth.
11. To complete your cup of cappuccino, take the cup of espresso
from the Cup Warmer, pour 1 ounce of steamed milk into
espresso and spoon the froth on top of the coffee.
For the final touch, sprinkle cinnamon, nutmeg, chocolate
shavings, cocoa powder, etc. on top of the froth.

manual.
