LIMITED WARRANTY CONDITIONS
The warranty does not cover repairs caused by:
- Failures due to limescale or not descaling regularly
- Failures due to operation with different power supply to that indicated on the data plate
- Failures due to improper use or use not conforming to the instructions
- Failures due to internal modifications made to the machine.
The cost of repairs on machines that have been previously carried out by non-authorised assistance centres shall be at customer's full expense.
If the machine is kept on without having filled the boiler with water any damage caused will not be covered by the warranty.
Moreover:
- Do not tap filter-holder on the drip grill (L) or body
- Do not put any machine parts in the dishwasher
- Keep the machine, particularly the area where the water tank resides dry at all times.
Non observance of these points could create problems to the body that are not covered by the warranty.
Keep the original packaging (at least for the warranty period). This will be useful if the machine needs to be taken to the centres for repairs. Any damage
caused by transportation without suitable packaging is not covered by the warranty.

RECOMMENDATIONS
To obtain a top-quality espresso, remember to:
- warm up the cups before using them (on the cup warmer or using hot water)
- prepare the coffee only when the green light comes on and switch (C) is in up position
- dispense a small amount of water after use to remove coffee residues from the unit
- switch on the machine at least 10 minutes prior to use, NB: before switching on, insert the filter-holder
- change the water in the tank at least once a week
Moreover, the use of soft water is recommended so as to reduce the amount of limescale deposits in the machine.
SOLVING
If this occurs when the machine is switched on: flip the coffee/hot water switch (B) and steam
switch (C) upwards. If this occurs when the coffee or hot water is dispensed, flip the coffee/hot
water switch (B) upwards. If it occurs during the steam supply, close the steam valve and set the
selector steam/coffee (C) on the coffee position again
Carry out the following operations: switch off the machine; fill the water tank; place a receptacle
under the steam wand and open the steam valve; switch on the machine; wait for water to flow out
of the steam wand; close the steam valve; wait for the green light (E) to come on
