person responsible for their safety, or they are instructed by
this person on how to properly use the machine.
Power Supply
Connect the coff ee machine only to a suitable socket. The volt-
age must correspond to that indicated on the appliance label.
Power Cord
Never use the coff ee machine if the power cord is defective or
damaged. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer or by its authorised service centre. Do not
pass the power cord around corners, over sharp edges or over
hot objects and keep it away from oil.
Do not use the power cord to carry or pull the coff ee machine.
Do not pull out the plug by the power cord or touch it with
wet hands.
Do not let the power cord hang freely from tables or shelves.
For the Safety of Others
Prevent children from playing with the machine.
Children are not aware of the risks related to electrical house-
hold appliances.
Do not leave the machine packaging materials within the
reach of children.
Danger of Burns
Never direct jets of overheated steam and/or hot water towards
yourself or others. Always use the handles or knobs provided.
Do not disconnect (remove) the fi lter holder during coff ee
brewing. Hot water drips may spill out of the brew unit during
the warm-up phase.
Never brew coff ee when button (
) is pressed because this
means that the steam function is on and the temperature of
the boiler is too high.
Location
Place the coff ee machine in a safe place, where there will be no
danger of overturning or injury.
Hot water or overheated steam may spill out of the machine:
Danger of scalding!
Do not keep the machine at a temperature below 0°C. Frost
may damage it.
Do not use the coff ee machine outdoors.
In order to prevent its housing from melting or being dam-
aged, do not place the machine on very hot surfaces and close
to open fl ames.
Cleaning
Before cleaning the machine it is necessary to turn off all but-
tons and then remove the plug from the socket.
Wait for the machine to cool down. Never immerse the ma-
chine in water!
It is strictly forbidden to tamper with the internal parts of the
machine.
Water left in the tank for several days should not be consumed.
Wash the tank and fi ll it with fresh drinking water.
Suitable Location for Operation and Mainte-
nance
To ensure a correct and effi cient performance of the coff ee ma-
chine, we recommend following the instructions below:
• Choose a level surface;
• Choose a location that is suffi ciently well-lit, clean and
near an easily reachable socket;
• Allow for a minimum distance from the sides of the ma-
chine as shown in (Fig.A).
Storing the Machine
If the machine is to remain inactive for a long time, turn it off
and unplug it. Store it in a dry place and out of the reach of
children. Keep it protected from dust and dirt.
Repairs / Maintenance
In case of failure, problems or a suspected fault resulting from
the falling of the machine, immediately remove the plug from
the socket. Never attempt to operate a faulty machine. Servic-
ing and repairs may only be carried out by Authorised Service
Centres. All liability for damages resulting from work not car-
ried out by professionals is declined.
