USE
Always check the water level in the

Before first use (fig. A)
Before first use, after a long period of non-use,
when the water reservoir has been removed,
or when water has completely run out, the

will be heard and after a few seconds water will
come out of the brew head. When it does, turn
the pump switch off.

Purging the system

appliance on. The heater light (4) will illuminate.
◆
Turn the pump switch (2) on. The pump will
start drawing water from the reservoir, making
a rumbling noise.
◆
Turn the steam control knob (7) half a turn
counterclockwise. Air steam and hot water will
come out of the brew steam nozzle (8).
◆
When hot water flows steadily from the steam
nozzle, close the steam control knob by
turning it fully clockwise.
◆
Water will come out of the brew head (13).
