Philips Espresso Bar Gebrauchsanweisung Seite 4

English
• Inside the Espresso machine water is
heated up. This water will expand and
as a result some drops may leak from
the steam pipe and/or the water outlet
opening. This is quite normal. Do not
forget to move the steam pipe
backwards into a position over the grid if
you do not wish to use it.
• The Espresso machine is protected
against damage due to overheating.
When pumping too long, the pump is
automatically switched off.
If this happens, switch the appliance
completely off and let it cool down for
approx. 45 minutes. Then remove air.
After this you can use the Espresso
machine again.
