Quick Clean of the Milk Tank System
The quick clean of the milk tank system should be carried out after every use so that no milk residues can remain in the system and dry on or go mouldy.
1. Fill the milk tank (6) with water (see the “Handling and Operation” chapter – “Filling the Milk Tank”).
2. Fold out the milk nozzle (4) using the lever (5) (Picture G).
3. Press the button (21) to switch on the device and preheat the water. The control pan-el (15) fl ashes during the heating process.
4. Place a suitable cup below the milk nozzle.
5. As soon as the device has heated up, the control panel stops fl ashing. Press the but-ton (19). A beep sounds, the self-cleaning starts and the button fl ashes.
6. Run the programme and pour away the contents of the cup after the self-cleaning fi nishes.
7. Repeat this process if necessary.
Intensive Clean of the Portafi lter and Milk Tank System
During the intensive clean, the portafi lter is also thoroughly rinsed through in addition to the milk tank system. This allows coffee residues which are stuck on to be rinsed out of the portafi lter and the sieves if applicable.
1. Fill the water tank (16) with water (see the “Handling and Operation” chapter – “Filling the Water Tank”).
2. Also fi ll the milk tank (6) with water (see the “Handling and Operation” chapter – “Filling the Milk Tank”).
3. Insert the portafi lter (10) into the device (see the “Handling and Operation” chapter – “Insert-ing / Remov“Insert-ing the Portafi lter”).
4. Fold out the milk nozzle (4) using the lever (5) (Picture G).
5. Press the button (21) to switch on the device and preheat the water. The control pan-el (15) fl ashes during the heating process.
6. Place a suitable cup below the coffee outlet (11) and the milk nozzle.
7. As soon as the device has heated up, the control panel stops fl ashing. Press the but-ton (19) for approx. 5 seconds. A beep sounds, the self-cleaning starts and the button fl ashes.
8. If you want to stop the cleaning, press the button again. The device switches to stand-by mode.
9. Pour away the water in the cup.
10. Repeat this process if necessary.

Descaling
Limescale deposits have an adverse effect not only on the quality of the espresso and the water, but they also cause power losses and shorten the lifespan of the device. The thicker a limescale layer is, the more diffi cult it is to remove.
We therefore recommend regularly removing limescale deposits with a descaling agent in accordance with the water quality in your area and how often the device is used (approx. every 2 – 6 weeks).
The fi rst indications that descaling is required are a large amount of steam being produced and slower brewing of the espresso.
The device indicates that it needs to be descaled at regular intervals! When the yellow control lamp (22) is lit, a descaling process needs to be carried out. The control lamp goes out as soon as a cleaning or descaling process has been carried out. This process may require more than one water tankful. In this case, a measuring cup may need to be used to add more water to the water tank (16) during the process until the yellow control lamp goes out.
For descaling we recommend the BEEM Premium Descaler Concentrate. The effi cient, food-safe and environmentally friendly BEEM Premium Descaler Concentrate is available from selected spe-cialist stockists, via our website www.beem.de or from our customer service department on request.
Descaling with the BEEM Premium Descaler Concentrate
For careful descaling of the device, carry out the intensive clean with a concentrate/water solution of no more than 1:20 (one part concentrate to 20 parts water) (see the “Self-Cleaning” section – “Intensive Clean of the Portafi lter and Milk Tank System”).
• Then allow the descaling solution to take effect for a little while.
• Repeat the process a second and third time if necessary.
• Remove the rest of the solution from the water tank (16) and milk tank (6).
• Fill both tanks with clear water. To rinse the device, run the same programme with clear water at least two times. The device is now descaled and ready to be used again.
Storage
Disconnect the device from the mains power when it is not going to be used for a prolonged period. Clean the device again if necessary (see the “Cleaning and Care” chapter) and let it dry completely.
Store the device and all accessories in a dry, clean, frost-free place that is protected from direct sunlight and cannot be accessed by children or animals.
