Connecting the appliance

Danger!

Check that the mains power supply voltage corresponds to that

indicated on the rating plate on the bottom of the appliance.

Connect the appliance to an eciently earthed and correctly

installed socket with a minimum current rating of 10A only. If

the power socket does not match the plug on the appliance,

have the socket replaced with a suitable type by a qualied

professional.

FILLING THE WATER TANK

1. Open the water tank lid (g. 1) and then take out the tank

by pulling upwards (g. 2).

Important!

At rst use, thoroughly clean the water tank with warm water.

2. Fill the tank with fresh clean water, taking care not to ex-

ceed the MAX level (g. 3). Put the tank back in the appli-

ance, pushing it down to open the valves located on the

bottom of the tank;

3. More simply, the tank can also be lled without extracting

it by pouring the water directly from a jug (g. 1).

Important:

• It is normal for there to be water in the space under the

tank. This should therefore be dried regularly with a clean

sponge.

• Never use the appliance without water in the tank and

always remember to top up when the level drops about an

inch/ 2cm from the bottom.

SETTING UP THE APPLIANCE

1. Turn the appliance on by rotating the selector knob to the

position (g. 4);

2. Insert the required coee lter (1 or 2 cups) in the lter

holder (g. 8);

3. Attach the lter holder onto the machine without lling it

with ground coee (g. 5);

4. Place a 0.5 l / 17 oz container under the boiler outlet and

another 0.5 l / 0.5 l / 17 oz container under the cappuccino

maker;

5. Wait until the READY light comes on (g. 6) and immedi-

ately afterwards turn the selector dial to the posi-

tion (g. 7) and let about half the tank discharge from the

boiler outlet;

6. Then rotate the steam knob counter clockwise (g. 18) and

discharge all the water remaining in the tank from the cap-

puccino maker;

7. Rotate the steam knob clockwise and the selector dial to

the position;

8. Empty the two containers and replace them under the

boiler outlet and the cappuccino maker and repeat points

5-6-7.

Now the appliance is ready for use.

Important!

No water is delivered or pump is too noisy: make sure the

tank is lled and placed correctly and repeat the operation till

water is delivered.

Tips for a hotter coee

To make espresso coee at the right temperature, the coee

maker should be preheated as follows:

1. Turn the appliance on by turning the selector dial to

position (the relative light comes on) (g. 4) and attach

the lter holder onto the appliance without adding pre-

ground coee (g. 5);

2. Place a cup under the lter holder. Use the same cup to be

used later to prepare the coee, in order to preheat it;

3. Wait until the READY light comes on (g. 6) and immedi-

ately afterwards turn the selector dial to the posi-

tion (g. 7) and let water discharge until the READY light

turns o, then interrupt by turning the dial to the

position.

4. Empty the cup, wait until the READY light comes on again

and then repeat the same operation.

(It is normal for a small and harmless pu of steam to be given

o when removing the lter holder).

HOW TO MAKE ESPRESSO COFFEE USING PRE-

GROUND COFFEE

1. After preheating the appliance as described above, place

the ground coee lter in the lter holder, making sure the

projection is correctly inserted in the slot as shown in g. 8.

Use the smaller lter to make one coee or the larger lter

to make two coees.

2. To make just one coee, place one level measure of pre-

ground coee (about 7 g/0,25 oz) in the lter (g. 12). To

make two coees, place two loosely lled measures (about

6 g/ 0,21 oz +6 g/0,21 oz ) of pre-ground coee in the l-

ter. Fill the lter a little at a time to prevent the pre-ground

coee from overowing;

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.

3. Distribute the pre-ground coee evenly and press lightly

with the tamper (g. 10). Correct pressing of the pre-

ground coee is essential to obtain a good espresso. If
