• Unplug before any cleaning or maintenance operations.

• DO NOT IMMERSE THE APPLIANCE IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUIDS.

• Unplug the appliance from the electricity supply immediately in the case of faults, defects or suspected defects after drop-

ping. Never operate the appliance if defective. REPAIRS MAY ONLY BE CARRIED OUT BY AUTHORIZED ASSISTANCE

• The appliance is not to be used if it has been dropped, if there are visible sign of damage or if it is leaking. To prevent any

accident, all repairs, including the replacement of the power cord, must be carried out by an Ariete Authorised Service

Centre or, in any case, by qualified personnel.

• Do not use the appliance if the power cord appears to be damaged, with parts showing burns, etc.; an Ariete Authorised

Service Centre must repair and replace the power cable, under penalty of the warranty being forfeited.

• Never direct the steam or hot water jet towards parts of the body; handle the steam/hot water spout with care: risk of

scalding!

• The appliance's external metallic parts must not be touched when the machine is functioning as it could cause burns.

• If water does not come out of the filter holder, it may be because the Thermocream® filter is clogged. Stop the brewing

and wait ten seconds. Remove and disconnect the filter holder because any remaining pressure could cause splashes or

squirts. Then clean as explained in the relevant paragraph.

• Place the machine on a stable surface where it cannot be knocked over.

• Do not use sparkling water (with added carbon dioxide).

• Never put substances other than coffee into the filter holder. They could cause serious damage to the appliance.

• Do not leave the machine at a room temperature below 0°C because the water remaining in the boiler could freeze and

cause damage.

• Never use the appliance outdoors.

• Do not expose the appliance to atmospheric agents (rain, sun ...).

• Before cleaning the appliance always unplug it and allow it cool down. Clean only with a non-abrasive cloth that has been

slightly dampened with water, adding a few drops of mild, non-aggressive detergent (never use solvents that damage

plastic).
