OPERATING
AUTO PURGE
For extracting espresso immediately after
using the steam function, this machine
features an auto purge function.
The auto purge function ensures the ground
coffee will not be burnt by the initial water
flow from the thermocoil being too hot. The
initial water is automatically released into
the drip tray after steaming to ensure the
thermocoil is at the optimal temperature for
extracting espresso.
Your espresso will always be extracted at the
optimal temperature ensuring only the best
flavors are extracted.
TIP
Water is automatically released
into the drip tray after the steam
and hot water functions to ensure
the thermocoil is at the optimal
temperature for extracting espresso.
This is normal. If you find water
around the front of the machine,
ensure the drip tray is firmly pushed
in place after using the steam and hot
water functions.
SLEEP & AUTO OFF MODE
The machine automatically switches to
SLEEP MODE after 1 hour. During this time,
the POWER button light will flash slowly.
After 3 hours, the machine will switch to
AUTO OFF MODE.
To re-activate the machine, press any button
except for the POWER button. The POWER
button light will flash while the machine
re-heats. A pumping sound will be heard.
This is normal. When the machine has
reached the correct operating temperature,
the POWER button light will stop flashing
and all button lights on the control panel
will illuminate.
