Deposits of these oils build up over time and affect the taste of the coffee and operation of the espresso machine. Regular cleaning to remove these oils is essential and will maintain the quality of the coffee the espresso machine produces and result in less maintenance being required. This is easy to do by following a few quick and easy cleaning steps after each coffee making session; . Cycle water through the group head, . Purge steam through the steam wand, . Wipe the steam wand clean with a damp cloth immediately after use, . Remove the filter basket from the filter handle and clean away any old coffee oils, and . Empty the drip tray and rinse. Important: Never wash any of the espresso machine parts or accessories in the dishwasher. Drip tray and grill Remove the grill and drip tray at regular intervals to empty (36) (37). Clean with water and a little non-abrasive washing up liquid, rinse and dry. Over time it is normal for the inside of the drip tray to be stained by the oils in the coffee. Note: Ensure that when you are replacing the drip tray and grill that the plastic lining is in position (38). Group head, filter handle & filter baskets The filter baskets and filter handle should be rinsed with warm water after each use and then dried thoroughly. To clean the group head of any old coffee grinds cycle water through and wipe the group head and around the inside rim with a damp cloth. Should the holes in the filter baskets become clogged with coffee granules use a fine bristled brush to remove them. Important: Should the filter remain blocked after normal cleaning, supplied with your espresso machine is a cleaning pin. The cleaning pin for the filter is the GREY pin located under the base of the water reservoir (39)(40). With the cleaning pin insert it into the single hole in the base of the filter (41). Group head rubber seal The group head seal is located on the underside of the group head and creates a seal against the filter handle during the espresso pour. Note: During long periods of non-use we recommend that the filter handle not be left attached to the group head as this will reduce the life of the seal. Over time the seal will lose its elasticity and require replacement, depending on use usually every 12 months. Signs that the seal is deteriorating are when the filter handle cannot create the necessary seal and steam escapes from around the group head during the espresso pour. Note: Contact Sunbeam on 1800 025 059 should you think that the group head seal needs replacing. Cup warming plate and exterior Wipe over the unit with a damp cloth and wipe dry. Do not use abrasives or metal scourers as these will scratch the exterior surface. Steam wand Keeping the steam arm clean is essential to ensure maximum efficiency of the steam function. A build up of caramelised/dried milk on the steam wand will impair the steaming and texturing ability of the espresso machine. Important: Wipe the steam wand clean with a damp cloth immediately after each use and purge a small amount of steam. Should the milk dry/caramelise on the steam wand, simply wrap the wand with a clean damp cloth, turn the steam wand over the drip tray and turn the steam on for approximately 10 seconds (42). With the cloth still on the steam wand leave to soak for about 5 minutes and you will find that after this time the dry/caramelised milk will easily wipe away. Repeat process if still dirty. Important: Never clean the steam wand with an abrasive pad as this will damage the steam wand. Should the steam wand become blocked, supplied with the espresso machine is a cleaning pin. The cleaning pin for the steam wand is the BLACK pin located under the base of the water reservoir (39)(43). With the cleaning pin insert it into the hole in the base of the steam nozzle (44). Should the steam wand remain blocked unscrew the steam nozzle from the steam wand. Clean the steam nozzle by once again using the cleaning pin then flush under running water.
