CAUTION: PRESSURE
In order to check if the espresso machine is under pressure,
follow these steps:
1. Turn the control knob to the
Off
position and unplug the appliance.
2. Rotate the control knob to the position. If steam comes out
of the frothing tube, then the water reservoir is still under pressure.
Turn the control knob to the
Off
position.
3. To release the pressure, hold a pitcher with water under the frothing
tube and immerse the frothing aid in the water.

Off
position
and slowly remove the cap.
5. Do not remove the brew basket or water reservoir cap at any time
during the brewing process or until pressure is relieved.
6. Use caution when removing the brew basket. The metal parts
may still be very hot. Also, there may be hot water floating
on the top of the filter.
7. If coffee does not drip from basket, the brew basket is blocked.
Allow the appliance to cool down, then release the steam with the
instructions above. The blockage may be caused by too finely ground
coffee. See
