FLUSHING THE SYSTEM
Flushing the system simply means running hot water and steam through the various parts of your

and hold the steam/hot water button for 2
seconds. You will hear 2 beeps and the steam in-
dicator will slowly flash red as the machine preheats
to steaming temperature.
4. When preheating is complete, the machine will beep once and the steam indicator will turn
white. Turn the steam control knob all the way to the position to run steam through the
wand for 10 seconds, then return to the position.
5. Press the steam/hot water button to run hot water through the hot water outlet for

DISPENSING HOT WATER
Once preheated, your machine can dispense hot water from either the hot water tap to the left of

your cups and milk pitcher or to top up your espresso shot to make a cafe Americano.
To dispense from the hot water tap, press the button. You will hear the pump working
and the indicator light will flash while the water is flowing. Press the button again to
stop.

to the position. Hot water will flow continuously from the tip of the steam wand until you
turn the knob back to the position.
WARNING - Check and empty the drip tray regularly to prevent
overflowing. Use extreme caution when emptying as the metal
