• 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
SERVICE CENTRES. The manufacturer disclaims all responsibility for any damage caused by incorrect repair work.
• We suggest you keep the original box, as our free-of-charge service does not cover transportation damage due to inad-
equate packaging of the product when sent to an Authorised Service Centre.
• Do not lift the appliance by grasping its water tank, but only by grasping its body.
• Choose a sufficiently well lit and clean environment, with an easily accessible electric socket.
• Avoid putting excessive quantities of water into the tank.
• 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 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 authorised Ariete
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. In this case slowly
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.
• Never use the machine without water because the pump will burn out.
• Never fill the water tank with hot or boiling water.
• Do not place the machine on very hot surfaces or near open flames in order to prevent damage to the body.
• The cable must not touch any hot parts of the machine.
• Do not use sparkling water (with added carbon dioxide).
• Never put substances other than ground 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).
• We decline any responsibility resulting from misuse or any use other than those covered in this booklet.
• This product complies with the 2006/95/CE Directive.
• The maximum operating noise level for this appliance is 86 dB(A).
