• Never switch on the machine when the water level has reached
“min” or if the boiler is empty. Damage to the boiler element could
otherwise occur.
• A thermostat secures overheating and excessive pressure. If the
thermostat breaks the electrical current, the control lamp 5 goes
out and only the on/off button 4 remains lit. The reset button can
be found on the inside of the machine and can only be activated
by a service partner.
• When the machine is switched on, your Maximatic can get very hot.
Please only touch the machine at its handles and make other users
aware of the threat of burns and scalds, which can occur for exam-
ple through the leaking of hot water or the discharge of hot steam.
•
Please do never open the boiler top when the machine is switched
on and if the steam wand has not been emptied completely.
• When faults occur while the machine is on, and before all cleaning
and maintenance work, remove the plug from the power outlet.
• Do not immerse the Maximatic in water.
• Clean the machine with a dry or with a moist cloth. Remove plug
from the power supply beforehand.
• Only specialists and authorized personnel are allowed to repair
electrical goods.
• Never transport the Maximatic when it is still warm.
• Always protect the Maximatic from frost. Freezing water can damage
the machine.
• Specialized and authorized personnel may only conduct the main-
tenance of electrical goods.
• Packaging, such as plastic bags and foam should be stored out of
reach of children, as these materials can be a potential health
hazard.
The Maximatic can only be used according to the general
guidelines in the manual. Misuse or technical changes can
be hazardous to your health and your safety. Olympia Express
does not take any responsibility if the security guidelines are
breached.
