22. Cleaning and maintenance

For correct application of the food safety system (HACCP), please follow the instructions in this paragraph. Washing must be carried out using original "Service Line" products, see details on the last page. Any other product could compromise the suitability of the materials which come into contact with food products.
Procedure to follow at the end of the working day on all groups or when signalled by the machine.
MILK CIRCUIT AND COFFEE CIRCUIT CLEANING
The purpose of the flushing cycle is to remove all traces of grease and limescale deposit, which occur during the transfer and emulsion of the milk, and when the coffee is dispensed.
Failure to flush out the circuit will cause these deposits to solidify. This will impair the quality of the machine's performance.
NOTE: the following operations must be carried out when the machine is on and pressurized.
COFFEE CIRCUIT
ATTENTION, RISK OF SCALDING: During the wash cycles, hot water and steam will exit from the groups.
If the machine sends the warning message, "EXECUTE COFFEE WASHING" will appear on the display.
This request will continue to appear for one hour or until the wash cycle is performed.
The coffee circuit can be washed in different ways:
- sequential: each group is washed separately and in sequence. It is therefore possible to continue using the groups not involved in the washing process;
simultaneous: all groups are washed at the same time.
Note: The simultaneous washing mode lasts 7 minutes. The single washing mode lasts 7 minutes for each coffee dispenser group.
A third type of washing cycle can also be carried out:
single: The washing cycle can be made on a specific group without having to wash the remaining ones. Groups not involved in the washing cycle can still be used during that time.
Note: The single washing cycle cannot be carried out if the machine launches a warning message.
