The surfaces of furniture may possibly contain elements which can damage and weaken the base of the machine.
If necessary, place a suitable pad below the base.
Do not operate the machine without water. If this does happen, the machine issues an error message (the "blue" indicator
light on the START/STOP button flashes and the NO WATER warning appears on the LCD screen). Please refer to the
Troubleshooting Your Machine chapter on page 21-23.
Do not pour milk or other liquids into the water tank. Use only water to make coffee.
Never overfill the portafilter.
Do not use the machine without a suitable container below the brew head and/or the steam wand.

heat-resistant surface.
STEP 4
Press the ON/OFF button. The heating
process will start and the "red" indicator
light on the ON/OFF button will flash

GRINDING THE COFFEE
STEP 2
Insert the filter into the portafilter.
CHANGING THE FILTER
To change filters, using the filter on hand, place the edge of
filter on the gap between sieve holder and filter. Lever the
filter into the sieve holder and take out it, as shown above.
STEP 1 SETTING THE DEGREE OF GRINDING
Rotate the bean hopper on the grinder clockwise until the GRIND SIZE marking points to the desired degree of grinding on
the bean hopper.
NOTES
Use the SINGLE FILTER for normal cappuccino, latte macchiato or single espresso.
Use the DOUBLE FILTER for stronger cappuccino, latte macchiato or double espresso.
» For a SINGLE espresso, you need approx 14~16g coffee powder.
» For a DOUBLE espresso, you need approx 20~22g coffee powder.
IMPORTANT
The grinder will NOT function if the GRIND SIZE marking is not within the 1-15 number range.
NOTES
The degree of grinding influences the taste and should match the preparation method. The following general
rules apply to the preparation of espresso:
» The finer the degree of grinding, the longer the extraction time. If the espresso tastes too
bitter, grind the coffee coarser.
» The coarser the degree of grinding, the faster the extraction time. If the espresso tastes too
watery and possibly slightly sour, grind the coffee finer.
» The optimal degree of grinding also depends on the type of espresso.
The following info can serve as a guide:
DEGREE OF GRINDING USE
VERY FINE Portafilter machine ( single/double filter )
MEDIUM Coffee filter
COARSE French Press

TAMPING THE COFFEE POWDER
INSTALLING THE PORTAFILTER
STEP 1
Distribute the coffee powder evenly on
the filter. To do this, you can easily tap
the portafilter onto the work surface
and spread it out without pressure, for
example with a teaspoon.
STEP 3 GRINDING THE COFFEE
Slide the portafilter with filter into the holder under the grinder
chute. You may choose to set the grinding time or simply tilt
the handle of the portafilter downwards to press the edge of
the filter against the "grinder button" from below. The grinder
continues to function as long as the grinder button is held down.
STEP 2
Place the portafilter on the edge of a
worktop (see figure). Place the tamper
straight on the coffee powder from
above and press it down evenly.
STEP 4
Release the "grinder button" as soon as the filter is filled
slightly full of coffee powder. Wait until no more coffee
powder is flowing and then carefully pull the portafilter out
of the holder.
STEP 3
Carefully lift off the tamper. Wipe off any
loose ground coffee powder from the
edge of the filter.
TIPS
Even pressure is more important than strong pressure.
A pressure of approx. 11~15kg is optimal. You can practice this using a personal scale.
After tamping, the coffee powder should not extend beyond the max marking on the inside of the filter.
To avoid cracks, never knock on the portafilter.
STEP 1
Align the portafilter in front of the INSERT marking on the
brew head and insert the portafilter lugs with the brew head
slots.
STEP 2
Once inserted, carefully twist the portafilter counter-clockwise
until the handle aligns with the LOCK TIGHT marking on the
brew head.

background
STEP 1
Fill the stainless steel frothing pitcher 1/3 of the way with
fresh, cold milk. Please use skimmed milk for best results.
STEP 3
Move the steam wand away from the drip tray and hold the
frothing pitcher at an angle so that the top of the steam wand
sits just below the surface of the milk. Once you're ready,
press the START/STOP button to start steaming. A countdown
on the LCD screen will initiate once the process starts.
STEP 4
When the foam starts to increase in volume, immerse the
steam wand deeper into the frothing cup. When the foam
is at the desired level, push the START/STOP button to stop
the process. Once steaming has completed, the "blue"
indicator light on the START/STOP button will turn off and
the countdown on the LCD screen will reset.
CLEANING THE STEAM WAND
To avoid clogging, make sure the steam wand is cleaned
immediately after each use. You may use the provided
Steam wand cleaning pin located in the drip tray slot.
STEP 5
Pour the steamed froth on your coffee brew of choice. Enjoy!
FROTHING THE MILK
TIPS
Immerse the steam nozzle just below the surface so that air is introduced into the milk ( drawing phase ).
Do not dip the steam nozzle into the centre of the pitcher, but to the side, so that a vortex is created.
When the volume of the milk has visibly increased, dip the steam nozzle a little deeper. The vortex should remain.
Now the air bubbles are distributed more finely ( rolling phase ).
WARNING
BE CAREFUL! the steam wand gets very hot while in use. Move it using the steam wand handle.
DO NOT move the steam wand over the surface of the milk to avoid hot milk from spalshing out.
STEP 2
Press the MENU button to set the program to STEAM, and
wait until the STEAM icon stops flashing. You can set the
time using the DIAL. ( see the section in the Program Display/
Functions chapter in Page 13)

EXTRA TIPS
We suggest to try milk from different producers.
Milk with higher protein yields a creamier foam.
Always use cold milk from the refrigerator ( approx. 5
o
C ).
When foaming, the milk should not become hotter than approx. 60
o
C. Higher temperatures change the taste and cause
the milk foam to disintegrate.
When the milk has finished foaming, do not wait too long. Otherwise, some of the milk foam will begin to dissolve again.

QUICK CLEANING
DEEP CLEANING
NOTE
For QUICK CLEANING:
The machine will drip water out of the brew head
and steam wand alternately for 3 cycles in the span
of 4 minutes.
» Brew Head = 40s/cycle
» Steam Wand = 40s/cycle
For DEEP CLEANING:
The machine will drip water out of the brew head
and steam wand alternately for 5 cycles in the span
of 7 minutes.
» Brew Head = 40s/cycle
» Steam Wand = 40s/cycle
IMPORTANT
A full tank of water is recommended for BOTH
cleaning modes.
To stop the procedure, simply press the
START/STOP button.
DEEP CLEANING is recommended when using a
“Descaling Agent”.
DESCALING
The first indications that descaling is required is when there’s a large amount of steam being produced and slower brewing of
the espresso.
Limescale deposits have an adverse effect not only on the quality of the espresso and the water, but they also cause power
losses and shorten the lifespan of the machine. The thicker a limescale layer is, the more difficult it is to remove.
We therefore recommend regularly removing limescale deposits with a descaling agent in accordance with the water quality in
your area and how often the machine is used (approx. every 2 – 6 weeks).
STORAGE
Disconnect the machine from the mains power when it's not going to be used for a prolonged period. Clean the machine
again if necessary and let it dry completely.
Store the machine and all accessories in a dry, clean, frost-free place that is protected from direct sunlight and cannot be
accessed by children or animals. Use the machine cover to prevent dust build-up.

then dry thoroughly.
CLEANING THE BEAN HOPPER

in between the grinder blades.
STEP 4
Declog and remove any stuck debris in the grinder chute
using the other end of your grinder brush.
REMOVING BLOCKAGES FROM THE STEAM NOZZLE
1. Use the Steam wand cleaning pin located inside the drip
tray slot.

the pin to remove blockages.
