Vigtige sikkerhedsforanstaltninger
Ved brug af elektriske apparater skal grundlæggende sikkerhedsforanstaltninger altid følges for at reducere risikoen for brand, elektrisk stød og personskade. Disse omfatter:
- Læs alle instruktioner, inden du betjener apparatet.
- Rør ikke ved varme overflader. Brug håndtag eller knopper.
- For at beskytte mod elektrisk stød må ledningen, stik eller apparatet ikke nedsænkes i vand eller anden væske.
- Tæt opsyn er nødvendigt, når et apparat bruges af eller i nærheden af børn.
- Træk stikket ud af stikkontakten, når det ikke er i brug, og før rengøring. Lad det køle af, før du sætter dele på eller af, og før du rengør apparatet.
- Betjen ikke noget apparat med en beskadiget ledning eller stik, eller efter at apparatet ikke fungerer korrekt eller er blevet beskadiget på nogen måde.
- Brug af tilbehør, der ikke er anbefalet af apparatets producent, kan resultere i brand, elektrisk stød eller personskade.
- Må ikke bruges udendørs.
- Lad ikke ledningen hænge ud over kanten af bordet eller bordpladen eller røre ved varme overflader.
- Må ikke placeres på eller i nærheden af en varm gas- eller elektrisk brænder eller i en opvarmet ovn.
- Sæt altid stikket i apparatet først, og sæt derefter ledningen i stikkontakten. For at afbryde forbindelsen skal du slukke for en vilkårlig knap og derefter tage stikket ud af stikkontakten.
- Brug ikke apparatet til andet end tilsigtet brug.
- Der kan opstå skoldninger, hvis låget til vandbeholderen fjernes under brygningen.

Vedligeholdelse og rengøring
Regular cleaning and maintenance are crucial for the performance and lifespan of your espresso maker.

- Repeat if necessary until the water runs clear.
Daglig rengøring
- Drypbakke: Tøm og skyl drypbakken og risten dagligt.
- Vandreservoir: Empty any remaining water and rinse the reservoir. Refill with fresh water for each use.
- Mælkebeholder: After each use, empty any leftover milk, rinse the reservoir, and wash with warm, soapy water.
- Portafilter og filterkurve: Remove spent coffee grounds, rinse thoroughly under running water, and ensure all coffee residue is removed.
- Ydre: Tør maskinens ydre af med en blød, damp klæde. Brug ikke slibende rengøringsmidler eller skuremidler.
Afkalkning
Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) can build up in the machine, affecting performance. Descale your espresso maker every 2-3 months, or more frequently if you have hard water.
- Tøm vandbeholderen.
- Fill the water reservoir with a descaling solution (e.g., white vinegar and water, or a commercial descaling agent) according to the descaling product's instructions.
- Place a large container under the coffee spout and frothing nozzle.
- Run several cycles of espresso and frothing (without coffee/milk) until the reservoir is empty.
- Skyl vandbeholderen grundigt og fyld med frisk vand.
- Kør flere cyklusser med frisk vand for at skylle eventuelle rester af afkalkningsopløsningen ud.
Fejlfinding
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Maskinen tænder ikke. | Ikke tilsluttet; problem med stikkontakten. | Sørg for, at netledningen er sat ordentligt i en fungerende stikkontakt. |
| Der kommer ingen kaffe ud. | Water reservoir empty; portafilter not properly attached; coffee too finely ground or over-tampudg. | Fill water reservoir. Re-attach portafilter securely. Use coarser grind or less pressure when tamping. |
