filter holder without coffee and allow one or

Automatic pre-brewing function
After selecting the brew cycle, the coffee maker
injects a little water to moisten the ground coffee
just before brewing, which improves the aroma.
This also helps to pack the ground coffee tighter
to produce a brew at higher pressure, improving
the quality of the coffee and, in short, the cream.
Changing preset brew times
1 ress the corresponding button (1 or 2 cup) for
3 seconds, the coffee will come out when you
release the button.
2 Press the corresponding button (1 or 2 cup)
again and the coffee will stop coming out. The
coffee outlet time will remain programmed for
subsequent brews.
The amount of coffee needed for 1 or 2 cups
may vary from brew to brew depending on the
type of coffee used and how tight it is packed.
Nevertheless, the programmed brewing times
will remain constant.
Resetting preset brew times
1 Press the two buttons (2 and 3) at the same
time for 3 seconds.
The ON/OFF luminous indicator will remain
