4. Maintenance

4.1 Daily Cleaning

• Drip Tray and Capsule Container: Empty and clean the removable drip grid, drip tray, and used capsule container daily. These components are dishwasher safe or can be washed with warm water and mild detergent.
• Machine Exterior: Wipe the machine exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove any spills or coffee splashes.
• Steam Wand: After each milk preparation, ensure the steam wand is wiped clean with a damp cloth. The machine performs an automatic purge cycle after each use to prevent milk residue buildup.

4.2 Water Tank and Descaling

• Water Tank: Rinse the water tank regularly with fresh water.
• Descaling: The machine will prompt you via its display when descaling is required. Follow the on-screen instructions carefully and use a Nespresso-approved descaling solution to maintain optimal machine performance and longevity.

5. Troubleshooting

• Machine Not Turning On or Powers Off Unexpectedly: Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into both the machine and a working electrical outlet. Check the water tank level; the machine may power off if the tank is empty. If the machine powers off during a cycle, allow it to cool down for a few minutes before attempting to restart.
• Coffee Not Dispensing: Verify that the water tank is filled with water. Ensure a Nespresso capsule is correctly inserted and the lever is fully closed. Check if the coffee outlet is blocked and clean if necessary.
• Milk Not Frothing Correctly: Ensure the milk jug is filled to the correct level with fresh, cold milk. Thoroughly clean the steam wand to remove any dried milk residue that might be causing a blockage.
• Water Leaking: Check that the water tank is properly seated and not cracked. Ensure the drip tray is correctly positioned and not overflowing.
