Keeping it clean:
1 IMPORTANT: the steam nozzle should
be cleaned after each use in order to avoid
build up of milk deposits that are very difficult
to clean. Cleaning is made easy as can be
seen in the DESCRIPTION OF PARTS. The
outer part of nozzle can be removed by
pulling downward.
The outside of the steam pipe can be cleaned
with a damp cloth.
The steam jet is cleaned by running a shot
of steam through it.
The hole in the steam nozzle must be kept
open. A needle may be used.
2 Clean filter holder and filter in warm water
after use.
3 Wipe body of machine with a damp cloth
as required.
4 Remove basin and grid (12, 23) and rinse
with water. Do not use abrasive substan-
ces.
5 Clean the seal (15) inside of the brewing
head (14) and keep it clean.
6 The shower disc (17) should be unscrewed
and cleaned periodically depending on
frequency of use.

7 If the machine is not used for a long period
of time, discharge the water from the boiler
by turning the steam knob clockwise (25),
and put the hot water/coffee switch on
"On". Let a quantity of water equal to two
cappuccino cups come out of the frother.
Close the steam knob (25) and put the hot
water/coffee and the steam switch on "Off".
Turn off the machine.
Never operate pump unless there is water in
tank.
8 NOTE: It is very normal for an espresso
machine to emit steam and drip occasionally
as the water pressure changes during use.
Be certain to empty drip tray (12) as requi-
red.
Descaling:
In hard water areas, minerals found in the
water will accumulate and affect operation of
the unit.
Approximately every two months (this can vary
depending on use and water condition), clean
the machine with Gaggia descaler (in which
case follow the instructions on the packet).
Remove shower disc (17) and clean.
Pour solution into tank and turn on pump for 15
seconds. Allow solution to flow through brewing
head and steam nozzle for several seconds.
Wait 20 minutes, then repeat. process until
solution has been run through.
Rinse machine thoroughly by running plain
cold water through machine. Replace shower
disc (17).
NOTE: Product failure due to scale accumu-
lation is not covered by warranty. No other
servicing should be attempted by the user. Use
"Gaggia cleaner" for best results.
