Check-out the 5 essential tips how to daily care and clean your EQ.3/EQ.300 coffee machines. Please take care: Before cleaning the appliance, pull out the mains plug. Never immerse the appliance in water.

Please not that:

  • If the appliance is cold when switched on, or if it is switched off after dispensing coffee, it rinses automatically. The system is therefore self-cleaning.
  • If the appliance has not been used for a long period of time (e.g. while you are on holiday), clean the entire appliance thoroughly, including the milk frother and brewing unit.

Do not use:
