4 Starting up
When starting the appliance for the rst time, please execute the following tasks.
When you have executed these tasks the appliance is ready for operation. Thereafter
you can prepare coffee. We recommend pouring the rst two cups of
coffee after rst start up down the drain.
Setting up
Place the appliance on a stable, level, and dry surface. Ensure that there is
a distance of 10 cm to the wall and to other objects.
The LATTEA has two rollers on the rear edge of the appliance. Lift the
appliance slightly from the front; the rollers allow easy movement.
Caution!
Never place the appliance on hot surfaces or in wet areas.
Do not transport or store the appliance in cold vehicles or rooms with
low temperature because the residual moisture could freeze and damage
the appliance. Follow the instructions on page 66.
The coffee grounds container is located in the drip tray. Please ensure that
the drip tray is pushed into the appliance all the way to the stop.
Notes
Keep the packaging material, including the hard foam material, on hand
for transport and possible return shipments, to avoid transport dama-
ge.
It is normal to nd traces of coffee and water in the machine before it is
started up for the rst time. This is because the appliance was tested for
faultless function in the factory.
