IMPORTANT NOTES ON USING THE MACHINE
Hints on using the frother function
NOTE:
When the frother function is active, water from the tank is not pumped to the boiler
(whose function is to heat the water). The boiler contains enough water at a time to use the
frother function for 57 minutes. In order not to damage the appliance, after each five uses of
the frother function, activate the coffee percolation function for two or three minutes. Setting this
function starts the process of delivering water to the boiler. This protects the appliance against
overheating and permanent damage.

l
To interrupt the flow of coffee, use the coffee percolation function button.
l
If you wish to brew another portion of coffee, fill the mesh filter with another portion of coffee
according to the relevant points of the instructions, then wait until the percolation button
stops flashing.
