Setup and First Use

1. Unpack the coffee maker and remove all packaging materials.
2. Place the machine on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface.
3. Fill the removable water tank with fresh, clean water up to the MAX line. Ensure the water tank filter is properly in place.
4. For the first use, and when the machine has been without water in the boiler, it is recommended to run water through the system several times without coffee powder to clean the machine. This helps remove any manufacturing residues and ensures optimal performance.
5. Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
