4.  INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE

 

 Important!

When you install the appliance, you should respect the follow-
ing safety warnings:
•  Water penetrating the coffee maker could cause damage. 
 

Do not place the appliance near taps or sinks.

•  The appliance could be damaged if the water it contains 

freezes. 

 

Do not install the appliance in a room where the tempera-
ture could drop below freezing point.

•  Arrange the cord in such a way that it cannot be damaged 

by sharp edges or contact with hot surfaces (e.g. electric 
hot plates).

•   The appliance gives off heat. After positioning the appli-

ance on the worktop, leave a space of at least 3 cm be-
tween the surfaces of the appliance and the side and rear 
walls and at least 15 cm above the machine.

•  Clean all the removable parts with tap water.

4.1  Connecting the appliance

Danger!

Check that the main power supply voltage corresponds to that 
indicated on the rating plate on the bottom of the appliance.
Connect the appliance to an efficiently earthed and correctly 
installed socket with a minimum current rating of 10A only. If 
the power socket does not match the plug on the appliance, 
have the socket replaced with a suitable type by a qualified 
professional.

5.  FILLING THE WATER TANK

Please note:

Before first use, 

wash all the accessories and water tank with 

warm water.
1.   Extract the tank by pulling it upwards (fig. 1).  
2.   Open the lid and fill the tank with fresh clean water, taking 

care not to exceed the MAX level (fig. 2). Put the tank back 
in the appliance, pressing lightly to open the valves located 
on the bottom of the tank.

3.   More simply, the tank can also be filled without removing 

it, pouring the water directly from a jug.

Important: 

Never operate the appliance without water in the tank or with-
out the tank.

Please note: 

It is normal for there to be water in the space under the tank. 
This should therefore be dried regularly with a clean sponge.

6.  FIRST USE

At first use, rinse the internal circuit as follows:
1.  Turn the appliance on by pressing the ON/OFF switch (fig. 

3). The appliance performs a self-diagnosis cycle, indicated 
by sequential flashing of the three buttons.

2. The   and 

 lights flash to indicate the appliance 

is heating up. When the lights stop flashing and remain on 
steadily, the appliance is ready for rinse.

3.  Attach the filter holder to the appliance (fig. 9).
