Routine Steps

Progress %{completed}/%{total} completed (%{percentage}%)

1. Machine Shutdown and Preparation

Press the power button to properly shut down the machine.
Wait for the automatic rinse cycle to complete,
then turn the main switch (if present) to the 0 position.
⚠️
The infuser cannot be removed while powered on due to safety mechanisms.

2. Water Tank Removal

Lift and remove the water tank.
Skipping this step may make it difficult to open the infuser door.

3. Open Infuser Door

Pull open the infuser door on the right side of the machine.
If the door feels stuck, don't force it -
verify that the water tank has been completely removed.

4. Remove Infuser

Press both colored release buttons (red or gray)
inward simultaneously while pulling the infuser outward.
💡
It may be stiff at first, so ensure the buttons are fully pressed while pulling.
🔧
If it won't release, try pressing the buttons more deeply.

5. Clean Infuser

Soak the removed infuser in cold water for 5 minutes.
Rinse thoroughly under running cold water, paying special attention to the filter area.
⚠️
Never use detergent or dishwasher! This will damage the components.

6. Clean Support Base

Remove any coffee residue from where the infuser was housed.
Wipe the support base clean with a damp cloth.
ℹ️
This area is difficult to clean regularly, making monthly cleaning essential.

7. Reinstall Infuser

Align the infuser with the internal support and slide it in,
then push firmly on the 'PUSH' marking until you hear a click.
💡
If it doesn't fit easily, adjust the two levers at the bottom of the infuser to match the size.

8. Final Check

Verify that both colored buttons have popped outward.
Close the infuser door and reinstall the water tank.
Power on the machine and test for normal operation.
