- 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. 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 pressurized filter holder in the dishwasher and do not
use washing-up liquid or a cleaning agent to clean it. This may cause the
pressurized filter holder 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.
- Do not remove the pressurized filter holder while brewing coffee. Hot
water drips may spill out during the warm-up phase of the brew group.
- The machine shall not be placed in a cabinet when in use.
