TECHNICAL PRECAUTIONS 

 
1.  Install the machine on a steady, dry base. 

 

2. 

DO NOT

 immerse the machine or power cord in water. 

 

3.  This machine develops warm spots (base) and hot spots (boiler 9). Subsequently, it should be kept 

out of the reach of children

 

4.  When operating, please take note of the hot surfaces. 

 

OPERATING PRECAUTIONS 

 

1. 

Never

 operate this unit without sufficient water in the boiler (9) failure to maintain proper water 

level can cause damage to internal parts. 

 

2. 

Never

 attempt to open the boiler cap (3) when the machine is in operation. The la Pavoni operates 

on a hot water/steam pressure method. Opening the boiler cap when the machine is on and under 
pressure will result in the sudden release of hot water. If you would like to add water to the boiler 
then follow these precautions: 

 

a.  Turn the machine off via the power switch (6) 
b.  Unplug the machine 
c.  Release the existing steam in the boiler (9) via the steam tube (12). This is 

accomplished by turning the steam knob (4) counterclockwise. After 

ALL

 the steam 

has finished escaping, you may slowly open boiler cap. 

 

3. 

After coffee delivery, never remove the coffee handle until remaining coffee in the filter has 
been allowed to drip out. Wait about 45 seconds then 

slowly

 release the handle to allow 

excess steam to escape. 

 

RE-SET FUSE:  

 

Your espresso machine is equipped with a manual reset fuse.   Should the water level 
in the sight glass drop below a 1/5 of a tank or if the machine is left on indefinitely, 
these occurrences may cause the machine to over-heat.  If the on/off switch does not 
light up the fuse may have blown, follow the below steps to restart your machine. 
 
1.   Unplug the unit 
2.   Close the boiler knob tightly so water does not escape 
3.   Gently place the machine on its side. 
 
Under the base of the unit you will notice a round grommet plug inserted 
into the bottom, directly under the boiler tank.   Remove the plug and 
push in the protruding red switch by using a blunt instrument (the end 
on a pencil of pen works well) replace the grommet, add water if 
necessary, plug-in and re-start
