► Appliance heats up to operating temperature.
► Brewing module is moved to brewing position.
► Pump starts running and conveys approx. 50 ml water
through the coffee outlet.
Brewing module and coffee outlet are rinsed and heated.
►Brewing module drains and moves to home position
Appliance is ready for use when the LED above the stand-by button
is lit green.
3.1.2 Filling the system
When switching on the appliance for the first time and after a service
the water pipe system in the appliance must be filled.
LEDs above stand-by button and “Turn steam/hot water valve”
