Before brewing a coffee, check that the On/Off button
and beverage buttons are constantly lit and that
there is enough water in the tank.
Never insert fingers or any other objects into the
capsule compartment. Single-portion capsules brew
a single coffee. Do NOT use capsules more than once. When
preparing an espresso or caffè crema, the machine performs
a pre-brewing cycle. There is an audible pause in the brewing
process between the pre-brewing and brewing cycles.

capsule, make sure that the used capsule drawer is not full.

underneath the spout and pressing the espresso button
without using a capsule. The cup will be filled with hot water.
