Filling the machine with water and coffee capsules
The coffee machine must be cleaned thoroughly (see "Cleaning and care") before you fill it with water and coffee capsules.
It is vital that you programme in the water hardness level of your water (see "Customising your machine - Setting the water hardness").
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.
Hot water and other liquids could damage the machine. Only use cold, clean tap water and fill the machine every day. Do not on any account use mineral water. Mineral water will cause serious limescale deposits to build up in your machine and damage it.

^Lift the water container up and pull it forwards to remove it.
^Fill the water container with cold, clean tap water up to the "Max." mark.
A valve at the front of the water container will ensure that water cannot escape.
^Push the water container fully back into the machine.
