After successful installation of the Saeco Kit Spout, the coffee machine should operate as intended. This kit is a replacement part and does not alter the machine's operational procedures. Refer to your coffee machine's original user manual for specific operating instructions.
Initial Test:
- Fill the water tank.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance of your coffee machine, including the spout assembly, is crucial for optimal performance and longevity. While the Saeco Kit Spout is designed for durability, proper care will extend its lifespan.
