1. Switch the machine off and disconnect it from the power supply.

3. Open the service door.
   
4. Remove the brew group using its release mechanism and handle.
   
5. Rinse the complete brew group thoroughly with lukewarm water.
   
6. Pay particular attention to the filters and areas where coffee residue accumulates.
   
7. Allow the brew group to air dry.
   
8. Check that the group is correctly positioned before reinstalling it.
   
9. Slide it back into the machine until it locks into position.
   
10. Refit the coffee pucks container and close the service door.
    

The removable brew group should not be cleaned using soap. Gaggia's current support information specifically distinguishes it from other washable components and says the brew group should be washed without soap

The Magenta Plus uses a professional steam wand.

1. After frothing milk, wipe the outside of the steam wand with a clean damp cloth before milk residue dries.
   
2. Purge the wand briefly to remove milk remaining inside the steam outlet.
   
3. Allow the wand to cool before carrying out more thorough cleaning.
   
4. Inspect the steam outlet and make sure its openings are not obstructed by dried milk.
   
5. Clean the wand regularly, particularly when the machine is used frequently for milk drinks.
   
6. Recheck steam output after cleaning.
   

Keeping this area clean is particularly important because even a small amount of dried milk around the outlet can noticeably reduce steam performance.

The Magenta Plus is officially compatible with the INTENZA+ water filter.

1. Remove the water tank from the machine.
   
2. Remove the old INTENZA+ filter if one is installed.
   
3. Prepare the new filter by immersing it vertically in cold water with its opening facing upwards.
   
4. Gently squeeze the filter to release trapped air.
   
5. Set the filter according to your water hardness.
   
6. Push the prepared filter firmly into its position in the water tank.
   
7. 
   Fill the tank with fresh water and reinstall it.
   
8. 
   Open the machine's CLEAN/SET menu.
   
9. 
   Enter SETTINGS.
   
10. 
    Select WATER FILTER.
    
11. 
    Follow the display instructions to activate or replace the filter.
    

The machine's settings include water-filter and water-hardness configuration, so don't simply install a new filter physically — register it through the interface as well.

1. Open the cleaning menu and select the descaling programme.
   
2. Empty the drip tray and coffee pucks container and reinstall them.
   
3. Remove the water tank.
   
4. Remove the INTENZA+ filter if fitted.
   
5. Add the specified descaling solution to the tank.
   
6. Add water up to the CALC CLEAN marking.
   
7. Reinstall the water tank.
   
8. Position a container of at least 1.5 litres beneath the steam tube and coffee dispensing spout.
   
9. Follow the instructions shown on the display to start the programme.
   
10. Allow the descaling stage to run.
    
11. 
    Follow the display instructions to rinse the water tank and internal water circuit.
    
12. When the complete procedure has finished, reinstall the INTENZA+ filter.
    

The complete programme takes approximately 25 minutes and includes both descaling and rinsing stages. It can be paused and resumed using START/STOP.

Do not attempt to remove the brew group while descaling is active.

That's the format I'd keep across the model pages now: fault codes as individual readable paragraphs + one compact Machine Specifications section.
