Setup

1. Unboxing and Initial Placement

Carefully remove all packaging materials. Place the machine on a stable, flat, and heat-resistant surface, away from water sources and direct sunlight. Ensure adequate ventilation around the appliance.

2. Water Tank Preparation

1. Remove the water tank from the back of the machine.
2. Rinse the water tank thoroughly with fresh water.
3. Fill the water tank with fresh, potable water up to the MAX level indicator.
4. Place the water tank back into the machine, ensuring it is securely seated.

3. Initial Rinse Cycle

Before first use, perform an initial rinse cycle to clean the internal system.

• Place an empty container (minimum 500ml capacity) under the coffee outlet.
• Ensure the machine is plugged into a grounded power outlet.
• Press the power button to turn on the machine. The button will flash during heating and turn solid green when ready.
• Without inserting a pod, select a large cup size (e.g., Grande or Carafe setting if available) and start the brewing process. The machine will dispense hot water.
• Repeat this process 2-3 times.
