Nozzles will need to be cleaned whenever material has dried up resulting in poor printing performance (for inspection see Print Quality). Further they have to be cleaned to ensure there is no contamination between materials, whenever material is being changed (visit Routine here: Changing Material.)
See full instructions for the routine to change the nozzle here: Changing the Nozzle. To just change the nozzle tip, view instructions here: Changing the Nozzle Tip.
