Things You Should Know

Push the coffee button and the lever down at the same time for three seconds. After three seconds, you will see a steady orange light. This light signifies that your coffee machine has entered the special functions menu.
Press the lever down three times to select a factory reset.

Press the hot foam button to enter reset mode, then press it again to start the reset. After the factory reset has been confirmed, all three milk recipe buttons will blink three times.[3]- Once the milk recipe buttons have finished blinking, the machine has completed the factory reset and is now in ready mode.
