CHAPTER 4 – USING THE MACHINE
NOTE: We would advise that you rinse the water container before it is used for the first time and that you discard the first coffee that you make when the machine is brand new.
4.1. FILLING UP THE WATER RESERVOIR
Remove the silver water reservoir cover and carefully take out the 2 water pipes. Fit a scale filter (supplied with the machine) to the longer of the two pipes. Now fill the reservoir with water. The water must be at room temperature. If you prefer you can remove the reservoir from the machine before filling it up with water. Be careful not to get the water pipes trapped when refitting the reservoir into the machine. You should hold the 2 pipes out of the way when installing the reservoir. When you put the 2 pipes back int the reservoir ensure that the pipe with the scale filter fitted can reach the bottom of the reservoir. The capacity of the reservoir is about 2 litres. Refit the metal reservoir cover.
NOTE: It is recommended that you use mineral water or filtered water in the machine to avoid the build up of scale which can cause damage to the boiler.
The scale filter should be replaced every 3 months.
