!For 2 cups, fill water up to midpoint between the 2 and 4 cup markings.

!For 4 cups, fill water up to the bottom of metal band.

3.Remove the water tank pressure cap and pour the water into the water tank. Do not fill to the top of the tank or there will not be enough area to generate steam.

CAUTION: Do not pour water into the tank while the machine is on. Check to make sure power switch is off. Do not pour more than 10 ounces of water into the tank.

Preparing the Coffee...
