IMPORTANT: Before using the coffee system for
the first time, make sure to start it according to
this procedure. The coffee system will not function
properly if not properly prepared for use the first time.
• Plug the coffee system into the power outlet.
• Make sure the drip tray is in place.
• Grasp both sides of the front panel and slide the unit
out.
• On model CM24TBISAS, clean the water tank
according to the Cleaning and Maintenance section of
the use and care manual.
• On model CM24TBISAS (tank version), open the
water tank door and pour filtered water (with a water
hardness of 4gpg or less) into the water tank. The tank
holds 1 1/4 gallons (2.5 liters) of water. DO NOT use
distilled water. If you want, you can remove the tank
from the machine to fill it. To do so, grasp the handles
firmly and pull up. Make sure the outside of the tank
is dry before replacement. Push down firmly on the
handles when replacing it.
• On model CM24PBISAS (plumbed version), turn on
the water supply valve and adjust the regulator. The
regulator adjustment is on the right side of the cabinet.
Look through the window to read the pressure. The
operating pressure is between 1.5 to 3.0 bars. If it
is out of adjustment, pull out on the knob below the
window, turn it until the pressure reads 2.0 bar. Push
the knob back in.
• Open the coffee bean container lid. Fill it to 1/2” from
the top with, whole, unflavored, roasted coffee beans.
Do not over-fill!
• Make sure the water tank and the coffee bean
container lids are closed. Push the coffee system back
into the cabinet.
• Using the handle, push the steam nozzle back into the
brewing compartment until the end is over the drip tray.

CAUTION
Do not leave the coffee system unattended during the
first time start up procedure. Keep hands and arms
clear of the steam nozzle while the coffee system is
heating up.
CAUTION
Pour only roasted, unflavored coffee beans into the
coffee bean container. Any other kind of coffee, e.g.
coffee which has already been ground, will damage
the grinder.
• Turn on the power switch. The power indicator light
will come on. The system will automatically load the
boiler tank with water. This process can take up to
three minutes. When the required water level has
been reached, the water will begin to heat (the heating
element light will come on). Water may spurt out of the
steam nozzle during the heating process.
• When steam starts to come out of the steam nozzle
turn the steam nozzle knob to the off position.
• Continue to allow the coffee system to heat until the
heating element light goes out. Once the water is
heated, the element turns on and off to keep the water
at a constant temperature.
• On model CM24PBISAS, check the regulator pressure
to make sure it has not changed during initial start up.
VerIfyIng operaTIon
• Turn the light on and off to test it.
• Assemble the filter holder, double filter and double
dispensing nozzle according to the operating
instructions.
• Push the steam nozzle over the drip tray.
• Clean and flush the coffee system completely
according to the Cleaning and Maintenance section
(including system cleaning) in the use and care
manual.
• Make a cup of coffee according to the Operating
Instructions section of the use and care manual to
make sure that the unit is working properly.
If the coffee system does not operate properly, follow
these troubleshooting steps:
1. Verify that power and water are being supplied to
the coffee system. On CM24TBISAS, make sure the
water tank is full.
2. Make sure that the coffee bean container has been
properly filled according to the Operating Instructions
in the use and care manual.
3. Make sure the regulator is properly adjusted. Air in the
system during initial operation can cause the initial
adjustment to be incorrect.
4. Repeat the above test.
