Stand-By

The machine is designed for energy sav-

ing. The machine automatically turns off  

after 30 minutes of inactivity.

Note: During the switching 

off  phase, the machine per-

forms a rinse cycle, if a coff ee product 

has been brewed.

To turn the machine on again, simply 

press the ON/OFF button (if the power 

button is set to “I”). In this case the ma-

chine will go through the rinse cycle only 

if the boiler is cold.

brew coff ee, make sure that 

the water tank contains water.
