Cleaning and Maintenance
Daily cleaning and maintenance can be performed in less than 12
minutes!
Importance of Daily Cleaning
To maintain the machine warranty, ensure sanitation, and avoid
mechanical failure, the Model 1500s/i espresso machine MUST be
cleaned and maintained on a daily basis.
Concordia recommends performing the daily maintenance and cleaning
at the close of each business day. The Model 1500s/i is equipped to
monitor the elapsed time and number of drinks poured between
cleaning cycles.
Cleaning Timer
Daily Cleaning Timer
You must clean your espresso machine every 24 hours. After 24 hours,
the machine’s display will read DAILY CLEAN DUE. You must clean the
machine within the next two hours.
If the machine is not cleaned within the two hours after the DAILY
CLEAN DUE warning is displayed, the machine will be disabled and you
WILL NOT BE ABLE TO POUR DRINKS. The display will read RUN DAILY
CLEAN. You cannot pour drinks until after you run the cleaning cycle.
For complete directions on cleaning the machine, see the cleaning card
with the machine.
Resetting the Cleaning Timer
The cleaning timer starts after the first drink is poured following a
cleaning. For example, if the machine is cleaned on Friday night, and it
is idle Saturday and Sunday, the timer is not started until the first drink
is poured Monday morning.
Automatic Quick Clean
If the automatic quick clean feature is in use, the machine runs an
automatic rinse cycle every 15 minutes after the last drink poured.
The display will read: DANGER! HOT WATER
As the machine is idle, an automatic quick clean cycle runs every 2
hours.
During the rinse cycle, water runs through the brew system and steam
runs through the milk system to provide a quick rinse during slow usage
periods. The interval timing for the automatic rinse cycle is adjustable.
Drinks cannot be poured during the automatic quick clean cycle.
