Removing the filter holder during operation can lead to a scalding or injury. • Clean the steam nozzle only when the unit has been switched off and allowed to cool.

Pre-ground coffee will only retain its flavour for 7–8 days, provided it is stored in an airtight container and in a cool, dark area. Do not store in refrigerator or freezer. Whole beans are recommended to be ground just before use. Coffee beans stored in an airtight container will keep its flavour for up to 4 weeks.
