not exceed the "MAX" mark in the tank. Install the tank back in the appliance.
Insert the stainless-steel filter into the portafilter. Then, insert the portafilter into the
appliance, matching the shape of the filter holder and the shape of the water outlet. Turn it
counter clockwise until the handle is aligned with the "lock" mark on the appliance.

Press the coffee button ready and the indicator light will start blinking. Wait until the indicator
light stops blinking.

going to be in contact with coffee. Press the button again when the cup is full to stop brewing.
The light indicator will blink again until the product stops preheating.
