After about 10 minutes (the time it takes

process begins. Water is pumped into
the steam generator at various times

drained away again into the residual
water container.
The indicator lights will alert you if you
need to empty the residual water
container or fill the water container.

residual water container. The 2
indicator light comes on again.
