• Always remove the used capsules from the machine after use.

• Clean the machine with a wet cloth (only water). Do not put your Handpresso Auto Capsule in the dishwasher.

• Do not plunge your Handpresso Auto Capsule in water. You can still rinse the portalter with water and let it dry.

• Descale the machine regularly (every 2nd month or every 100 coffees) in order to increase its performance and life. In order to descale your Handpresso Auto Capsule, use an adequate product. Read the instructions on the descaling product for the right dose and duration. Rinse 5 or 6 times with water. Repeat if necessary. Never use any other descaling method than the one recommended here. Repair What to do in the following cases :

• I cannot open the portalter Handpresso Auto Capsule works at a pressure of approx. 19 bar. In order to avoid injuries or damage to the product due to the pressure, a safety device prevents you from opening the portalter if the machine is under pressure. As long as the orange safety indicator is visible, the machine is still under pressure. In order to open the portalter, press the STOP button so the orange safety indicator disappears.

• I cannot close the portalter There is only one position in which the portalter can be closed so that the portalter and the machine are aligned once closed. Try again by screwing the portalter so that the locking indicators (white lines) are aligned.

• The machine does not start a) Make sure that the cigarette lighter plug is well plugged-in. The plug and the display of the machine are lit up when they are properly connected. b) Check that the cigarette lighter of you car is powered. The machine uses lots of power, so it is recommended to start the engine of the car to use the Handpresso Auto Capsule.

• I press the espresso button, the motor of the machine starts working but the coffee does not run Make sure that the espresso button is pressed till the end. Some capsules take more time than others to be drilled. If nothing happens after a few seconds, press the STOP button till the orange safety indicator disappears, unplug the machine, remove the capsule and try again with another capsule.

• I press the Espresso button, but the motor of the machine does not start working a) Make sure that the espresso button is pressed till the end. b) Make sure that the cigarette lighter plug is well plugged-in and that the display is still lit up. Otherwise press the STOP button till the end, unplug the machine, remove the capsule. Plug the machine in again and try with another capsule.

• The water drips from the portalter during the brewing a) Check the presence and the position of the capsule O-ring in the capsule holder. Replace the O-ring if it is not there or if it is faulty (dry, cracked, damaged or cut). You can get one from your retailer. b) Make sure to close the portalter properly, the locking indicators (white lines) have to be aligned (go back to step 7 in the instructions).

• My espresso is cold Wait until you hear 3 bleeps and see the display tell you to push the Espresso button before ipping the machine around and press the Espresso button.

• The water level indicator does not work despite a correct lling. Very low water minerality can alter the functioning of the water level reading system. Do not use demineralised water.
