PLEASE NOTE:
• This appliance is intended for household use only.
• Place the appliance on a dry, flat and fixed surface
and keep it out of reach of children.
• Never use warm water, sparkling water or milk to fill
the water container.
• Never open the brew mechanism during brewing.
In “Auto Mode”, always wait for the indicator light
to move from AUTO to MANUAL before opening the
brew mechanism. In “Manual Mode”, take your
finger off the start/stop button and wait until the
machine has stopped before opening the
brew mechanism.
• For some drinks, the brew cycle includes a 10 second

product before brewing continues.
• If during brewing you can hear the machine running
but no drink is produced, stop the cycle by pressing
and releasing the start/stop button. Open the
brew mechanism carefully and slowly, and discard
the T-DISC. Try again with a fresh T-DISC.
• After 10 minutes of non-use, the STANDBY light
will illuminate. If you are not going to use your
machine for an extended period, turn it off using
the on/off switch.
