4. Open pressure tank screw cap slowly (an integrated pressure-
ventilation system lets a stem possibly still in the pressure tank
escape sideways at the pressure tank screw cap during
opening of the screw connection).
5. Place the sieve in the collecting basin (
Fig.5.2.1 | 5.2.2
).
Risk of scalding from discharging steam during filling!
Let pressure tank cool down (see
point 3
)!
Fill pressure tank slowly.
Do not bend over the filling opening of the pressure tank during
filling.
6. Fill water slowly!
Note the maximum filling volume of the pressure tank capacity
of approx. 3.2 litres.
7. Remove the sieve.
Wipe off water that has overflowed. Encrusted residues can impair
the safety mechanism in the pressure tank screw cap.
8. Check the opening of the pressure tank screw cap. In the case
of recognisable clogging, replace the pressure tank screw cap
for safety reasons.
9. Close the pressure tank screw cap by hand (hand tight).
10. Switch on the machine at the mains power switch (
I
).
If the machine has preciously signalled a minimum fill level using
the red LED, this signal is reset by the power off and power on.
