Bleeding the system
• In order to ensure perfect operation of the appliance it is important that the system is bled prior to
initial use or after a longer non-use period.
• If the water tank gets empty during use, the system will suck air which must be removed by bleeding
the system.
Warning:
Casing, brew head,
portafilter, filter inserts and hot
water/steam nozzle are getting hot
during use!
Step 1:
Remove the water tank
(previously remove the portafilter if
necessary).
Step 2:
Fill the water tank with fresh tap
water.
Observe the “MAX” marking!
Step 3:

insert at the marking of the brew
head and lock it by turning it to the
