Safety instructions
General
4.
Always ensure that the main water tap in the supply line is closed when the machine is
switched off and that the main power switch outside the machine is off or the mains plug
disconnected from the socket.
5.
The built-in type-tested safety devices prevent the pressure and temperature inside the water
boiler rising inadmissibly. If the relief valve is ever tripped, the machine must be switched off
immediately and disconnect from the power supply.
Call the WMF customer service and do not switch the machine on again until the fault has
been remedied.
6.
The housing of the WMF PROGRAMAT GV and storage urn must not be hosed down or
cleaned with a steam jet. The surface should be wiped with a damp cloth or with one of the
products from the WMF care range.
Machine shutdown
3.
If the machine is to be shut down for an extended period of time, a general cleaning should be
carried out first. Drain the machine to prevent frost damage, if is to shut down for an extended
period of time.
The WMF customer service must be called in promptly in such cases.
4.
After several weeks of shutdown for holidays, we recommend that the full automatic cleaning
program be run at least twice before the machine is started up again.
