Safety Information - Gaggia ESPRESSO PURE Operating Instructions Manual

ENGLISH
Congratulations on your wise choice!
As the proud owner of the Gaggia machine, you can
now experience the taste of a delicious cup of espresso
or cappuccino.
Espresso coffee, originally created in Italy, is made by
rapidly forcing water that has been heated to the correct
brewing temperature, through a special finely ground
coffee. The heart of the espresso machine is a precision
engineered pump. The pump and water flow is easily
controlled with just a flick of the switch.
CAUTION:
Any repairs or servicing operations, with the exception
of normal cleaning and maintenance operations must be
undertaken by an authorized service centre.
1. Check voltage to be sure that the voltage indicated on
the plate agrees with your voltage.
2. Never use warm or hot water to fill the water tank. Use
cold water only.
3. Keep your hands and the cord away from hot parts of the
appliance during operation.
4. Never clean with scouring powders or hard implements.
5. To avoid your machine scaling up, use purified or bottled
water.
6. Do not immerse base in water.
ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR FIRST
USE
Dear customer, in order to guarantee optimum operation,
all of our machines are tested with water and coffee during
manufacturing. For best results from your first cup of coffee on,
please completely fill the water tank with fresh water and use
the entire amount of water it contains to alternately dispense
it from the brewing head and steam pipe (Pannarello). For
detailed information on dispensing hot water, please consult
sections "How to make a good espresso coffee"
and "Making hot water".
