5 Maintenance
The professional steam lance must be dismantled and rinsed
daily
if milk has been frothed or heated to make sure it functions perfectly
and also in the interests of hygiene.
E
Your GIGA is supplied with two spanners to dismantle the pro-
fessional steam lance and two brushes to clean the two metal
tubes.
T
Using the spanner provided, unscrew the professional steam
lance clockwise.
T
Using the two spanners, separate the two metal tubes that
make up the professional steam lance.
T
Clean both metal tubes thoroughly under running water.
Use the two brushes to clean the inside of the tubes.
T
Also clean the temperature sensor on the machine.
T
Reassemble the metal tubes.
T
Refit the professional steam lance on the machine.
Your GIGA no longer has to be descaled if you are using the CLARIS
Pro Blue filter cartridge. If the water hardness is 10° dH or more, we
recommend using the filter cartridge. If you do not know the hard-
ness of your water, you can find this out first (see Chapter 1 ‘Prepar-
ing and using for the first time – Determining the water hardness’).
If you did not activate the filter cartridge the first time you used the
machine, you can do this now as follows.
