Cleaning And Maintenance - Philips 1200 Série Mode D'emploi

Reinserting the brew group
Before you slide the brew group back into the machine, make sure it is in the correct position.
1 Check if the brew group is in the correct position. The arrow on the yellow cylinder on the side of
the brew group has to be aligned with the black arrow and N (Fig. 11).
-
If they are not aligned, push down the lever until it is in contact with the base of the brew group
(Fig. 12).
2 Slide the brew group back into the machine along the guiding rails on the sides (Fig. 13) until it locks
into position with a click (Fig. 14). Do not press the PUSH button.
3 Close the service door and place back the water tank.
