Press the retainer at the top of the pourer sieve 5 down and, at the same time, pull the pourer sieve 5 inwards. Clean the pouring sieve 5 with a lightly moistened dishcloth and under running water. This can create the risk of a life-threatening electrical shock if residual liquid comes into contact with powered components. Should the scale deposits in the pourer sieve 5 be firmly established, lay it in a water-vinegar solution having a ratio of 6:1 for a few hours. Before cleaning the appliance, remove the plug from the mains power socket and allow the appliance to cool down. Clean the exterior surfaces and the power cord with a slighly damp cloth.
