accessories making contact with water or milk should
be rinsed with hot water. It is advisable to wash the milk
carafe (E) (see section”14. Thorough cleaning of milk
carafe”).
• Any traces of coee that may be found in the mill are left
by the factory tests carried out on the machine before it
goes on sale — evidence of the meticulous care we have
for the product.
• The rst time the machine is used, the water circuit will
be empty and the appliance could be very noisy.The noise
becomes less as the circuit lls.
• When starting the machine for the rst time, make cer-
tain that the water spout (D5) is tted.
