Water absence signal (water reserve)
Function:
The water level is monitored by a capacitive sensor, located one
third up the water tank wall.
If the electronic system detects that the water is below the relative
level by means of the sensor, a water reserve of 200 pulses of the
The product dispensing process is then completed.
If a dispensing process ends after the sensor has intervened (in the
reserve), the "water absence" signal continues to be displayed as

Empty residual water tank signal
Function:
The residual water level is monitored by a capacitive
sensor. The sensor is located approximately half way up
the upper edge of the residual drip tray. To make the best
