To guarantee perfect espresso, the machine regularly rinses its inner circuit
with water. This automatic rinsing cycle takes place 60 minutes after the
appliance switches to standby mode or switches off. During the automatic
rinsing cycle, some of the water flows through the inner circuit directly into
the drip tray. Empty the drip tray regularly.
