When the light comes on, the
grounds container must be emptied and
the machine can no longer make coffee.
The appliance cannot be used to make coffee until you have cleaned the grounds container. Even if
not full, the empty grounds container message is displayed 72 hours after the first coffee has been
prepared. For the 72 hours to be calculated correctly, the machine must never be disconnected from
the mains power supply.
The drip tray is fitted with a level indi-
cator (red) showing the level of water it
contains.
Before the indicator protrudes from the
cup tray, the drip tray must be emptied
and cleaned
Check periodically (about once a month)
that the inside of the appliance (accessi-
ble by removing the drip tray) is not dirty.
