pressed for about 8 sec.(If the function is ena-
bled)
Each time a coffee is dispensed, the LED of the
relative button lights up.
During dose programming, the LED of the 5
button flashes rapidly.
If the dose is supplied irregularly or the volumetric
counter is malfunctioning, the LED of the pressed
button flashes dispensing the dose on a time ba-
