CONNECTING TO THE
MAINS
Before plugging the appliance into
the mains, make sure that the
voltage corresponds to that stated
on the characteristics plate. Plug the
appliance into an earthed socket.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please read these instructions
carefully before first using your
Espresso.The appliance must only be
connected to the mains via an
earthed plug. Check that the voltage
shown on the appliance’s indicator
plate corresponds to that of your
electricity supply. It complies with
the requirements of the EEC Directive
(89/336/EEC) and (72/23/EEC).
Never put your Espresso on a hot
surface (electric warming plate, for
example) or close to a flame. Place
on a flat, stable heat-resistant surface
away from water splashes.
Never remove the filter holder
containing the coffee grounds while
water is being passed through, since
the appliance is under pressure at
this time.
Never use the appliance if the drip
tray and the drip tray grid are not in
position.
Disconnect the electricity if there is
any problem while the coffee is
brewing or prior to cleaning your
appliance.
Never unplug the appliance by
pulling on the cord and never lay the
cord across a sharp edge or the
corner of an item of furniture.
Do not allow the cord or your hands
to come into contact with the hot
parts of the appliance (cup warming
plate, filter holder, steam nozzle).
Never immerse the appliance in
water.
Keep away from children and do not
allow the cord to hang down.
Follow the instructions given for
descaling.
Never start the machine if it is
damaged or not operating correctly
or if the cord is in poor condition.
If the cord or any other specific part
becomes defective, these can only be
replaced by a Rowenta approved
service centre. You must never,
under any circumstances, open the
appliance yourself, in order to avoid
