11. Preventive maintenance
Because of the associated dangers, repairs and
preventive maintenance activities may be
performed only by the technical service or
professionals authorized by the manufacturer for
this purpose.
11.a In case of defects:
First have technical service inspect malfunctions or
damages and repair them, if applicable, before you
continue using the machine. This is the case, for
example, ...
if the housing is damaged
if the power cord or power plug are damaged
GB
or if the fuse for the circuit of your machine trips
repeatedly
if water escapes from the machine
if error messages are indicated on the display or
if the machine does not function normally
if unusual odor can be detected or heat
development on the housing is apparent (the
housing is normally only warm to the touch
during operation).
In all of these cases, pull the plug from the outlet
and turn off the water. Then notify technical service.
11.b Inspection / Repair intervals
After each 30.000 cups or 12 months of
operation (whichever occurs first), a major
maintenance of the machine must be
performed by technical service (chargeable
service). Take care to make such an
appointment early on to avoid unnecessary wear.
Monitor the in-line water filters for effectiveness
as described in their documents. Replace all
water filters no later than every 12 months to
prevent germ formation and water contamination.
