Thank you for choosing this coffee machine. To get the very best out of your new coffee machine it is advisable to read these instructions before using the appliance. This is the only way to ensure optimum results and maximum safety.
Using for the first time
Before using the machine for the first time, wash all the accessories in warm soapy water and rinse. For the best tasting coffee the internal circuits must be flushed through at least five times.To flush through the espresso function follow the instructions in the paragraph “How to prepare espresso coffee” using just water.
Installation
•Place the coffee maker on a flat work surface at a safe distance from taps and sinks.
•Check that the voltage corresponds to that indicated on the appliance rating plate.The appliance must always be connected to a well-earthed socket rated at 10A minimum.The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by inadequate earthing of the appliance.
•In the event of incompatibility between the plug on the appliance and the socket, have the plug replaced by a qualified professional.
If the cable is damaged or requires replacing, contact a service centre authorised by the manufacturer only.
•Never install the machine in an environment that can reach a temperature less than or equal to 0°C (if the water in it freezes, the coffee maker may be damaged).

How to prepare espresso coffee
Filling the water tank
Remove the tank by pulling sideways and lifting the intake tubes out of the water (fig. 1).
Rinse and fill with clean cold water (fig 2).The water level is shown by a floating ball. Replace the tank in the housing, making sure the tubes are in the water.
More simply, fill the tank by extracting it just enough to pour in the water directly from a jug.
Preheating the coffee machine
To ensure your espresso coffee is dispensed at the right temperature it is essential that the coffee unit is preheated.
1.Press the ON/OFF button (fig. 3).
2.Attach the empty filter holder (without coffee) to the machine by positioning it under the boiler outlet with the handle towards the left (fig. 4). Push upwards and at the same time turn the handle as far right as possible. It does not matter if the handle is not centrally aligned with the machine, as long as the filter holder is firmly attached to the appliance.
3.Position a cup under the filter holder. Use the same cup that the coffee will be served in, so that it may be preheated. Wait until the “OK” light comes on (fig. 5), then immediately
press the coffee button (fig. 6). Allow the water to run until the OK indicator light goes out, then stop the water by pressing the coffee button again (fig. 6).
4.Empty the cup, wait until the “OK” pilot light comes on again and repeat the whole operation one more time.
(It is normal for a small and harmless puff of steam to be given off when removing the filter holder).

How to prepare espresso coffee using the filter holder for ground coffee
1.After preheating the appliance, the machine is ready to be used. Insert the ground coffee filter with crema enhancer into the filter holder, making sure the tab is correctly inserted into housing as shown in fig. 7.
2.To prepare a single coffee, fill the filter with a level measure ground coffee, about 7 g (fig. 8). To prepare two coffees, use
filter and fill with two loosely filled measures of ground (about 6+6 g). Fill the filter in small doses to prevent the ground coffee from overflowing.
Note: Use good quality, finely-ground coffee for espresso coffee machines.
IMPORTANT: for correct operation, before adding ground coffee to the filter holder, make sure the filter is free from ground coffee from the previous infusion.
3.Distribute the ground coffee evenly and press it lightly with the coffee tamper (fig. 9).
NOTE: Pressing the ground coffee is very important in order to prepare a good coffee. However if you press too hard, coffee will come out slowly and crema will be of a dark colour. If you press too light, coffee will come out too fast and crema will be a very light colour.
4.Remove any excess coffee from the rim of the filter holder. Attach the filter holder to the machine by positioning the handle to the left of the boiler outlet, then pushing upwards and turning the handle to the right (as in preheating the machine fig. 4).
5.Place the cup or cups under the filter holder spouts (fig. 10).You are recommended to heat the cups before making the coffee rinsing them with a little hot water or placing them to warm on the top plate for at least 15-20 minutes (fig. 11).
6.Make sure the OK indicator light (fig. 5) is on (if it is off, wait until it comes on), then press the coffee button (fig. 6). Once the required quantity of coffee has been obtained, interrupt delivery by pressing the same button again (fig. 6).
7.To detach the filter holder, turn the handle from right to left.
To avoid splashing, do not detach the filter holder whilst the machine is dispensing coffee.
8.To remove the used coffee lock the filter with the built-in lever and let the coffee fall out by knocking the over turned filter holder (fig. 12).
9.To turn the coffee machine off, press the ON/OFF button (fig. 3).
