2.3 Initial Rinse (Priming)

Before first use, or after a period of non-use, it is essential to rinse and prime the machine to ensure proper function and clean internal components. Do not insert a capsule during this process.

1. Ensure the water tank is filled.
2. Place a container (at least 12 oz capacity) under the coffee outlet.
3. Close the machine head and rotate the lever to the lock position.
4. Press the brew button three times rapidly. The machine will begin a rinsing cycle, dispensing hot water.
5. Allow the cycle to complete. The machine will stop automatically.

This process primes the pump and cleans the internal system. It is recommended to perform a fresh water rinse periodically, especially after extended periods of inactivity or if coffee residue is observed.

3. Operating Instructions

The Vertuo Pop+ Deluxe uses Nespresso Vertuo capsules, which feature a unique barcode system. The machine reads this barcode to automatically adjust brewing parameters (water volume, temperature, rotation speed) for optimal extraction of each specific coffee blend.

3.1 Capsule Insertion and Brewing

1. Ensure the water tank is filled with fresh water.
2. Place an appropriate cup under the coffee outlet. The adjustable drip tray can be moved to accommodate different cup sizes.
3. Rotate the lever to the unlock position to open the machine head. The head will spring open.
4. Insert a Nespresso Vertuo capsule with the dome side down into the capsule holder.
5. Close the machine head by pressing down firmly and rotate the lever to the lock position.
6. Press the brew button once. The machine will begin the brewing process, indicated by a flashing light.
7. The machine will stop automatically once brewing is complete.
