- Llegeix totes les instruccions.
- No toqueu superfícies calentes. Utilitzeu nanses o poms.
- Per protegir-se contra incendis, descàrregues elèctriques i lesions a les persones, no submergiu el cable, els endolls o l'aparell en aigua o altres líquids.
- És necessària una supervisió estreta quan qualsevol aparell és utilitzat per o a prop dels nens.
- Desendolleu la presa de corrent quan no utilitzeu i abans de netejar. Deixeu refredar abans de posar o treure peces i abans de netejar l'aparell.
- No feu servir cap aparell amb un cable o un endoll danyats o després que l'aparell funcioni malament o s'hagi fet malbé de cap manera.
- L'ús d'accessoris no recomanats pel fabricant de l'aparell pot provocar incendis, descàrregues elèctriques o lesions a persones.
- No utilitzar a l'aire lliure.
- No deixeu que el cable pengi de la vora de la taula o del taulell, ni toqui superfícies calentes.
- No col·loqueu-lo sobre o prop d'un cremador de gas o elèctric calent, ni en un forn calent.
- Connecteu sempre primer l'endoll a l'aparell i després el cable a la presa de corrent. Per desconnectar-lo, gireu qualsevol control a la posició "off" i, a continuació, retireu l'endoll de la presa de corrent.

Manteniment i Neteja
La neteja i el manteniment regulars són crucials per a la longevitat i el rendiment òptim de la teva màquina d'espresso.
1. Neteja diària
- Portafiltres i cistelles de filtre: After each use, remove the portafilter and discard the coffee grounds. Rinse the portafilter and filter basket under hot water. For the double-lined portafilter basket (approximately 47.5mm), ensure thorough rinsing to prevent coffee residue buildup between the layers. Allow to air dry completely.
- Cap de grup: Wipe the group head with a damp cloth to remove any coffee grounds. Run a short cycle of hot water without the portafilter to rinse.
- Vareta de vapor: As mentioned in the operating instructions, wipe the steam wand immediately after frothing and purge steam to clear any milk residue.
- Safata de degoteig: Buidar i netejar la safata de goteig regularment.
- Dipòsit d'aigua: Esbandiu el dipòsit d'aigua diàriament i torneu-lo a omplir amb aigua fresca.
2. Descalcificació
Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) can build up in the machine, affecting performance. Descale your machine every 2-3 months, or more frequently if you have hard water. Use a commercial descaling solution designed for espresso machines and follow the product's instructions. Always rinse the machine thoroughly with several cycles of fresh water after descaling.
