General
- This machine is intended for normal household use only. It is not intended for use in environments such as
staff kitchens of shops, offices, farms or other work environments.
- Always put the machine on a flat and stable surface. Keep it in upright position, also during transport.
- Do not place the machine on a hotplate or directly next to a hot oven, heater or similar source of heat.
- Only put roasted coffee beans in the bean hopper. Putting ground coffee, instant coffee, raw coffee beans or
any other substance in the coffee bean hopper may cause damage to the machine.
- Let the machine cool down before you insert or remove any parts. The heating surfaces may retain residual
heat after use.
- Never fill the water tank with warm, hot or sparkling water, as this may cause damage to the water tank and
the machine.
- Never use souring pads, abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive liquids such as petrol or acetone to clean the
machine. Simply use a soft cloth dampened with water.
- Descale your machine regularly. The machine indicates when descaling is needed. Not doing this will make
your appliance stop working properly. In this case repair is not covered by your warranty.
- Do not keep the machine at temperatures below 0°C/32°F. Water left in the heating system may freeze and
cause damage.
- Do not leave water in the water tank when you are not going to use the machine for a long period of time. The
water can become contaminated. Use fresh water every time you use the machine.
- Never use any accessories or parts from other manufacturers or that Gaggia does not specifically
recommend. If you use such accessories or parts, your warranty becomes invalid.
- Regular cleaning and maintenance prolongs the lifetime of your machine and ensures optimum quality and
taste of your coffee.
- The machine is exposed continuously to moisture, coffee and scale. Therefore it is very important to regularly
clean and maintain the machine as described in the user manual and shown on the website. If you do not
perform these cleaning and maintenance procedures, your machine eventually may stop working. In this case
repair is not covered by warranty.
- Do not clean the brew group in the dishwasher and do not use washing-up liquid or a cleaning agent to clean it.
This may cause the brew group to malfunction and may have a negative effect on the coffee taste.
- Do not dry the brew group with a cloth to prevent fibers from collecting inside the brew group.
- Never drink the solution dispensed during the descaling process.
- Only put preground coffee into the preground coffee compartment. Other substances and objects may cause
severe damage to the machine. In this case, repair is not covered by your warranty.
