Normal Operation, Continued
Water Reservoir
The water reservoir can be accessed by opening the hinged reservoir door on the
top of the machine. It is recommended that the reservoir be removed prior to filling to
prevent the spilling of water inside the machine which can cause damage to
sensitive electrical components. Should water accidently get spilled inside the
machine then immediately turn the power switch to the off position and unplug the
machine from the electrical outlet. Do not plug the machine back in until it has had at
least 1 full day to dry out. If it does not operate after that time then unplug the
machine and refer to the troubleshooting section of the owner‟s manual.
The reservoir must be installed properly for the machine to function. The floats inside
the reservoir must be on the left side of the machine. Also be sure the reservoir is
seated as far down as possible and the silicone hoses are not pushing the floats
down or the audible alert will sound.
The machine is equipped with 2 floats in the water reservoir to detect the water level.
When the water level starts to get low an intermittent tone will be heard to notify the
user to refill the reservoir. The machine will still operate so the user can still finish
pulling the shot or steaming milk.
When the water level gets even lower then a steady tone will be heard and then the
heater will no longer operate to protect itself from damage. As soon as the reservoir
is refilled the tone will stop and the machine can be used normally.
The reservoir should be cleaned at least once a week with mild dish detergent and
rinsed thoroughly before use.
DO NOT PUT IN DISHWASHER!!!
Depending on your water quality it may be necessary to periodically sanitize the
reservoir or if you are using hard water and have a mineral build up inside. White
vinegar can be used to sanitize and will also remove the mineral deposits that can
accumulate. Fill the reservoir with white vinegar and then let it sit for an hour and
then rinse and clean the reservoir thoroughly. If the reservoir still has a vinegar taste
or odor you can mix some baking soda and water in the reservoir to remove the
taste and odor and then clean it normally.
