The snap is signalled by a message on the coffee bean hopper; refer to these messages when this adjustment is performed. Be sure to empty the coffee bean hopper before starting. Note: the screw could call into the grinder; if that happens, be sure to remove it before continuing the cleaning.

Unscrew the screw that holds the service door closed.

Remove screws and service door.

MILK CONTAINER CLEANING.

To guarantee that the parts that come into contact with milk are perfectly clean and to optimize the performance of your Primea Cappuccino, we recommend cleaning the appropriate container under running water before dispensing milk-based beverages. To simplify this operation, the machine is equipped with a special accessory (cleaning pin) that eliminates any milk residue in the cappuccinatore (see fig. 3).

This operation must be performed between two dispensing cycles of milk-based beverages (regardless of when the last circuit rinse cycle was performed, see manual), while it is not necessary in case of consecutive dispensing.

Rinse the container and the cleaning pin under running water.

Proceed with caution!
Insert the cleaning pin all the way into the indicated hole.
