Operating Instructions
- Fill the removable water reservoir with fresh water and seat it fully on the base.
- For regular coffee, use ground coffee in the grounds basket and choose the cup, travel mug, half carafe, or full carafe size that matches your vessel.
- For espresso, insert one compatible Nespresso Original-style capsule, close the capsule handle fully, and choose Espresso, Lungo, or Over Ice.
- Place the correct mug, cup, or carafe under the outlet before pressing Start Brew.
- Use the fold-away frother only with milk in a separate cup; froth after brewing, then rinse/wipe the frother whisk.
- After use, discard the used capsule or grounds, empty the drip tray if needed, and wipe coffee or milk splashes.
Have a problem?
- Clean or descale light is on
- You may still make coffee if the machine is otherwise working, but please tell your host that the Clean light is on.
- Do not run a cleaning cycle unless support asks you to.
- Espresso capsule side will not brew or puncture the capsule
- Open the capsule handle, remove and discard the capsule, then try one new compatible capsule.
- Close the handle firmly before brewing.
- If it still does not puncture or brew, use the regular coffee side and contact your host.
- Water leaking near the reservoir or base
- Make sure the reservoir is seated flat and is not overfilled.
