mend using de-mineralized or highly filtered water (see:
'The Water Quality'). If the problem persists, contact an
authorized service centre.
Push the water tank down at the back of the appliance
until the outer sides of the water tank level up with the
housing of the appliance (see: 'Inserting or Changing the

illuminated continuously (not flashing). Allow time for the
machine to reach operating temperature. The power but-
ton will stop flashing, when the machine is ready-to-use.
