Filling the water container

The quality of the water plays an important part in the overall quality of the coffee.

The water container should therefore be emptied and filled with fresh tap water every day.

Warning. Bacteria can cause infection.

It is important to empty and fill the container with fresh tap water every day to avoid the risk of bacteria building up.

Hot or warm water or other liquids can damage the coffee machine.

^Open the lid on the left hand side of the coffee machine a. Pull the water container up by its handle and remove it b.

^Fill the water container with fresh, cold tap water up to the "Max." marker.

^Replace the water container in the coffee machine. Make sure that the water container fits correctly onto the notch at the top of its housing.

^Close the lid.

TIP If the water container is a little high or at a slant, check whether the surface that the water container sits on is dirty. If the water container is not sitting correctly, the drainage valve will not be sealed.

Clean the surface, if necessary.
