  • Please dispose of waste separately (glass, “envases” [plastic bottles, cans], cardboard and residual waste) at the recycling collection points in the district.
  • Sun protection: for ground floor, attach large sun sail to the balcony railings on the upper floor; parasol for ground floor
  • Fitness: Spin-Velo in the storage room; tilt 45° forward, then it rolls …
  • Boom Box on the ground floor: press Bluetooth symbol 3», then connect with SRS-XG300
  • Coffee machine: if the portafilter is overfilled, the pressure rises to >10 bar and the portafilter is catapulted out of the machine – be careful!
  • Water: the house gets water from the water network and has its own 5000 litre tank. If there is no more water, the tap may have to be opened (call Angel / Carmen)
