Silvia PID Kit
Disclaimer
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY AND MAKE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND IT
COMPLETELY. BY PROCEEDING WITH INSTALLATION OF THIS KIT,
YOU ARE ACCEPTING AND ACKNOWLEDGING THE TERMS OF THIS
DISCLAIMER.
A reasonable amount of care has been used in the design and fabrication of this kit, and
similar kits have been tested successfully over short periods of time on a limited number
of Rancilio Silvia espresso machines. However, there is no warranty, expressed or
implied, that this kit is either safe or effective. If you decide to install this kit then you
agree to indemnify and hold harmless MLG Properties, LLC, its members, owners, and
employees, for any and all damages to yourself, your property, and any third parties that
may result due to any cause associated with this kit or these instructions.
This kit is intended to be installed in properly functioning, properly maintained Rancilio
Silvia espresso makers of the type depicted in these instructions. It is intended to be
installed by qualified technicians or other individuals with significant experience with
electrical and electronic equipment.
If you do not have enough knowledge or experience with installation of electrical and
electronic equipment then you should not attempt installation of this kit. There are high
voltages present in this appliance and you can easily electrocute yourself, or others. This
kit will replace the manufacturer's thermostat which controls a high temperature steam
boiler. As such, a risk of injury exists in the event of malfunction or failure of the
installation or any of its components.
If you do not have the requisite knowledge to understand the intended functions of all of
the components of this kit, and the ability to identify errors or inadequacies in either the
concept or execution of this espresso machine modification, then you should not install
this kit.
This kit has been designed to be completely removable, allowing complete reversal of the
installation. Nonetheless, installing this kit will probably void any warranty that may
exist on the unit. MLG Properties will not take over that warranty – you will simply have
no further warranty coverage on Silvia.
Finally, a plain English warning: a lot of things could go wrong if you are not careful
enough, or if MLG Properties was not careful enough. You could electrocute yourself or
someone else, you could start a fire - you might even suffer serious steam burns. If you
decide to proceed, you need to have a qualified person look over this kit and install it
only after they are satisfied it is safe for you to tackle. Otherwise you need to scrap the
whole plan, take advantage of MLG's return policy, and be content with your Silvia the
way it is.
