Step-by-step guides

What the manual does not say

8 jobs with nothing stated
  • Backflush (water)
  • Boiler water change
  • Descale
  • Group gasket replacement
  • Professional service
  • Shower screen replacement
  • Water filter / softener replacement
  • Water tank clean
Notes from the research
  • Turin has not published the Legato manual ('Coming Soon'); its only care text is a short product-page paragraph, so descale, gasket and shower-screen guidance is missing.
  • The same OEM machine's MiiCoffee Apex manual has a descale regime, but it does not name the Legato and was not borrowed.
  • Shower screen, steam wand soak, drip tray and weekly detergent backflush intervals are community (Coffeeness).
