Cleaning the filter holder and the
filters
The filters should be kept clean to guarantee
perfect results.
Warning!
The filter must only be replaced
when the filter holder cup has cooled down
completely to avoid burns.
Every day, remove the filter from
the filter holder as described in
(Fig.14) and wash it with warm
water.
If you notice a malfunction
when brewing coffee, immerse
the filters in boiling water for 10
minutes and then rinse them
with running water.
To clean the filters more
thoroughly, we recommend
using the GAGGIA cleaning tablets specifically
designed to keep your machine in perfect working
order.
Cleaning the grill and drip tray
Remove the drip tray and the grill (Fig.1-10,11)
and wash them with water. Do not use abrasive
cleaning tools.
Cleaning the water tank
Warning!
To avoid burns, the tank should be
cleaned only when the machine is turned off.
The drain hose (Fig. 11) may reach high tem-
peratures during operation.
Remove the water tank (Fig.1-13) and wash it with
fresh water.
To remove the water tank, first remove the drip tray
(Fig 1-11), and then remove the drain pipe (Fig.11)
by pulling it downwards.
Note.
When reinserting the tank, make sure that
the silicone tube is inside the tank and that it is
neither twisted nor blocked (Fig.12).
Cleaning the screen
Regularly remove any residual coffee grounds from
the screen (Fig.16) using a brush and wash with hot
water following the instructions given in the section
"How to lower the temperature".
Cleaning after a long period of
inactivity
When the machine is not used for a long time (more
than two weeks), follow the instructions given in
the section "When using for the first time or after
a period of inactivity of more than 2 weeks".
Descaling
Limescale normally builds up
with the use of the appliance.
Use the GAGGIA descaling
product only. Its formula has
been designed to ensure bet-
ter machine performance and
operation for its whole operat-
ing life. If correctly used, it also
avoids alterations in the brewed
product. Never use vinegar or
other descaling agents.
Descaling should be performed
every 2 months.
Warning!
Never drink the descaling solution or
any products dispensed until the cycle has been
carried out to the end.
1.
Insert the filter holder (Fig.1-17) into the brew
unit (Fig.1-8) from the bottom, aligning the
reference mark on the filter holder handle with
the ( ) icon on the front panel of the machine
(Fig.3). Turn the filter holder from left to right
until it locks into place on the ( ) icon (Fig.4).
2.
Remove and empty the water tank (see the
chapter "Cleaning the water tank").
3.
Pour HALF the content of the descaling solu-
tion into the water tank and fill it with fresh
water up to the max level.
4.
Turn the machine on by pressing the on/off
button (Fig.1-2).
Dispense 2 cups of water (about 150 ml each)
