Cleaning Tablet Funnel
The cleaning tablet funnel is located between the two bean hoppers.
Only Coffee Pure Cleaning Tablets should be dropped into this funnel during
the daily cleaning procedure. Refer to pages 19-20 for daily cleaning
instructions.
Use only Coffee Pure Cleaning Tablets (Item # 9610000116) for the daily cleaning procedure. Refer to page 11 for reordering cleaning tablets.
Steam Wand with finesteam©
The steam wand is movable and has a hard plastic handle for handling when it is hot.
The PEEK steam wand material dramatically lowers the wand’s surface
temperature. Unlike standard stainless steel wands, milk doesn’t bake onto the
wand. Milk residue easily wipes clean, even later on after steaming. The PEEK
steam wand is also much safer to touch right after steaming.
Steam wand with proprietary air injection and auto shut-off guarantees consistent milk texture and temperature while allowing users the freedom to multitask.
Hot Water Spout and Coffee Spout
The hot water outlet is used for pre-heating ceramic cups and quick rinsing of
utensils.
The coffee spout can accommodate tall cups.
Grounds Bin
The grounds bin is located below the coffee spout. It holds the used grounds
which are disposed of after each espresso shot is brewed.
The bin slides straight out from the machine and must be emptied periodically
or when prompted on the display
Drip Tray Grill and Drip Tray
The drip tray grill is removable for easy cleaning and access to the inside of the drip tray.
The drip tray is connected to a flexible hose which should be connected to a
fixed drain line. The purpose of this ‘basin’ is to funnel any spilled liquids
down the drain. To prevent blockage, we recommend that you avoid flushing
large quantities of milk and/or used coffee grounds down the drain.
Card Reader
For use by manufacturer authorized service agent.
