here. It's "
10% of the supplement, at least €5 minimum", if you cancel at least one day in advance. The supplement for 3-berth deluxe sleeper is €40 per person, so the cancellation fee would be €5 per person; the supplement for a 2-berth deluxe sleeper is €60 per person, so the cancellation fee would be €6 per person. (My previous figure was a miscalculation, based on the cancellation fee on day of departure, which is 50%, and hence €30 per person for a 2-berth deluxe sleeper).
You missed the following in your link: "In den Nachtreisezügen nach Frankreich und Belgien sowie nach Italien gelten weitere Globalpreisangebote."
The Europa Spezial fare is an inclusive fare and the fare and sleeper elements are not separated. The €15 cancellation charge relates to the whole fare - I've done it once.
If you buy the sleeper supplement separately, the cancellation charge is 10% of the sleeper supplement.
I'm also pretty sure the cancellation cost is per reservation - so if you book a sleeping compartment for 3 people, and cancel, you only pay one cancellation charge. If you try a dummy booking for several people, it will show the total cost of the reservation, and underneath, the cancellation charge of €15.
