7.4 Making drip coee
Open the lter-holder door, rotating it towards the right
(g. 7).
Fill the carafe to the level indicator relative to number of
cups of coee you wish to prepare, taking care not to ex-
ceed the MAX level of 10 cups (g. 8), otherwise, in order
to not overll the machine, the excess water will spill out
from the back of the unit.
Then
pour the water into the water-ll compartment of the
machine (g. 9).
Position the gold tone lter into the lter-holder (g. 10).
Put the ground coee in the lter using the measuring
spoon supplied and level it o evenly (g. 11). As a gener-
al rule, use a level measure of coee (approx 7 grams) for
every cup of coee required (for example, 10 measures to
obtain 10 cups).
Close the lter-holder door and place the carafe, with cover
in place, onto the warming plate.
Press the “Coee ON/OFF” button. The button illumin-
mates to indicate that the drip coee-maker is brewing.
The coee will begin to dispense after a short time.
It is perfectly normal for the machine to emit steam while the
coee is percolating.
To keep the coee hot after the unit is nished percolating it will
automatically switch to keep warm for up to the selected time.
To turn o the machine press the “Coee ON/OFF” button.
Please note: At the end of coee dispensing the appliance
emits a beep.
7.5 “BOLD” function
The Bold function enhances the avor of your coee. This fea-
ture activates a unique brewing process, slowly releasing water
into the lter basket; saturating coee grounds a little at a time
extracting the best avor and aroma from your coee.
To activate, press the “BOLD” button after having pressed the
“Coee ON/OFF” button (g. 6); the button will illuminate. Press
the button again to turn the selection o.
This function is recomended when preparing 1 to 4 cups. Do not
use this button if brewing an entire carafe of coee.
You can select this function even when using the auto function
(see paragraph 7.2).
If you want to activate the bold function for delayed brewing,
after you program the timer you need to activate the bold func-
tion by pressing the button.
8. ESPRESSO
8.1 Preheating the espresso unit
To make espresso coee at the right temperature, the coee
maker should be preheated as follows:
1. Press the “Espresso ON/OFF”button (g. 12) to turn the ma-
chine on. The integrated light ashes to indicate that the
machine is heating up.
2. Insert the lter to the portalter (g. 13). Attach the por-
talter with lter to the machine (g. 14) without adding
pre-ground coee.
2. Place a cup under the portalter. Use the same cup that
will be used to prepare the coee in order to preheat it.
3. Wait until the “Espresso ON/OFF” integrated light stops
ashing: now the machine is ready to make espresso.
4. Press the button (g. 15). Continue delivering wa-
ter until you ll the cup and then interrupt the delivery by
pressing the same button and empty the cup.
Please note:
It is normal for a small and harmless pu of steam to be
given o when removing the portalter.
Never operate the appliance without water in the tank or
without the tank.
8.2 How to make espresso using pre-ground
coee
1. Preheat the machine and portalter as described in the
previous paragraph.
2. Place the ground coee lter in the portalter To make
one espresso, use the lter with the
symbol on
the bottom, to make two espressos, use the lter with the
symbol on the bottom.
3. To make just one espresso, place one level measure with
the scoop provided of pre-ground coee (about 7 g/0,25
oz) in the lter (g. 16). To make two espressos, place two
level measured scoops with the scoop provided.
Important:
For correct operation, before lling with pre-ground coee,
make sure there are no coee residues left in the lter from the
last time you made coee.
4. Distribute the pre-ground coee evenly and press with the
tamper (g. 17).
Correct pressing of the pre-ground coee is essential to
obtain a good espresso. If pressing is excessive, coee deli-
very will be slow and the crema will be dark. If pressing is
too light, coee delivery will be too fast and the crema will
be weak and light in color.
5. Remove any excess coee from the rim of the portalter
and attach to the machine. Turn as far as it will go (g. 14)
to avoid water leaking out.
6. Place the cup or cups under the portalter spouts (g. 18).
You are recommended to warm the cups before making
coee by rinsing them with a hot water.
7. Make sure the “Espresso ON/OFF” integrated light is solid (if
