3 Allen key/wrench

Pipe cleaner/thin brush

**BEFORE BEGINNING THIS OPERATION, MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE MACHINE IS OFF,

UNPLUGGED, AND COLD**

1. Re ove the brew unit fro the achine. Behind it, you will see the water coupling (beige

water line connection with two red or orange o-rings).

2. Re ove the Torx screws and pull down the visible portion of the valve. You will be left with this:

3. Use the sa e Allen key/wrench to re ove the valve-insert the key into the center of the valve

and turn it clockwise or counter clockwise to line the tabs up with the four slots (the inner valve

is shaped like a plus sign) and pull out the end of the valve.

4. Rotate the end of the valve and pull gently-each end is a plus sign, and will need to be turned to line

up and exit through the end of the hose to co e loose. You will be left with this:

5. Once the valve is out, gently pull the spring off of the upper co ponent and re ove the black

ball.

6. Soak the valve, spring, and ball in war soapy water or a solution of decalcifier and water,

rubbing the co ponents to re ove any scale.

7. While you are soaking the co ponents, re-attach the spout with the two Torx screws and turn

the achine on, bringing it out of Stand-By ode.

8. Once the achine is ready for use, run three blank shots: put a cup under the brew head and

press the aro a setting (coffee bean/spoon) button until just the spoon is on the screen. DO

NOT insert ground coffee, just press the s all coffee button. Water will brew through, and

flush out the spout area. Perfor this operation three ti es.

9. Turn the achine back off, then re ove the spout again with the Torx screwdriver.

10. Once everything is clean, re-asse ble in reverse order. Slide the valve, lining up the end with

the ball first, then turn the valve for the opposite end to fit in, then turn the valve with the Allen

key so that the tabs are behind the tabs on the inlet area to hold it in place.

11. Slide the water coupling back on, and re-attach the Allen screws.

12. Re-insert brew unit and turn achine on; follow the instructions on your screen to get the

achine ready for use again (pri ing, etc).

13. It is best to descale the achine again at this point, following either the instructions in your

anual or the video link here: https://www.youtube.co /watch?v=8WS3p 74uBc , depending

on the age of the achine. Once that operation is co pleted, the achine should be back to

nor al and ready for use.
