Cleaning the lter holder and the lters
The filters should be kept clean to guarantee perfect
results.
Warning! The lter must only be replaced when the
lter holder cup has cooled down completely to avoid
burns.
Every day, remove the lter from the lter holder as de-
scribed in (Fig.14) and wash it with warm water.
If you notice a malfunction when
brewing co ee, immerse the lters
in boiling water for 10 minutes and
then rinse them with running water.
To clean the lters more thoroughly,
we recommend using the GAG-
GIA cleaning tablets specifically
designed to keep your machine in
perfect working order.
Cleaning the grill and drip tray
Remove the drip tray and the grill (Fig.1-10,11) and wash
them with water. Do not use abrasive cleaning tools.
Cleaning the water tank
Warning! To avoid burns, the tank should be cleaned
only when the machine is turned o . The drain hose
(Fig. 11) may reach high temperatures during operation.
Remove the water tank (Fig.1-13) and wash it with fresh
water.
To remove the water tank, rst remove the drip tray (Fig
1-11), and then remove the drain pipe (Fig.11) by pulling
it downwards.
Note. When reinserting the tank, make sure that the silicone
tubes are inside the tank and that they are neither twisted
nor blocked (Fig.12).
Cleaning the screen
Regularly remove any residual co ee grounds from the
screen (Fig.16) using a brush and wash with hot water
following the instructions given in the section "How to
lower the temperature".
Cleaning after a long period of inactivity
When the machine is not used for a long time (more than
two weeks), follow the instructions given in the section
"When using for the rst time or after a period of inactivity
of more than 2 weeks".
DESCALING
Limescale normally builds up with
the use of the appliance. Use the
GAGGIA descaling product only.
Its formula has been designed to
ensure better machine performance
and operation for its whole operat-
ing life. If correctly used, it also
avoids alterations in the brewed
product. Never use vinegar or other
descaling agents.
Descaling should be performed
every 2 months.
Warning! Never drink the descaling solution or any
products dispensed until the cycle has been carried out
to the end.
1. Insert the lter holder into the brew unit (Fig.1-8) and
turn it from left to right until it locks into place.
2. Remove and empty the water tank (see the chapter
"Cleaning the water tank").
3. Pour HALF the content of the descaling solution into
the water tank and ll it with fresh water up to the
max level.
4. Turn the machine on by pressing the on/o button
(Fig.1-2).
Dispense 2 cups of water (about 150 ml each) from
the steam wand (see the chapter "Preparing hot
