These not only give the correct measure of

coffee, they also make cleaning easier. Other

types of pod may not give such good results.

USING THE COFFEE-MAKER FOR THE
FIRST TIME

Remove the packaging and take out the bag contai­ning the accessories. When the appliance is new, the
following accessories must be washed with lukewarm
water and detergent then rinsed thoroughly: filter
holder, measuring, filters, water tank, 2 cup adaptor,
pressing spoon. The internal circuit of the coffee­maker must then be pre-washed as follows:

Filling the tank

Remove the reservoir by pulling it sideways, at the
same time lifting the tubes (fig. 1).
Rinse the reservoir and fill with fresh water up to
the upper mark (fig. 2). Inspection of the water
level is facilitated by a ball-shaped float. Replace
the reservoir in its housing, ensuring that the tubes
are immersed in the water (fig. 3).
A simpler way of filling the reservoir is to pull it
out just enough to be able to pour in water direc­tly from a jug.
Remember to clean the reservoir regularly.

Pre-washing

• Plug in at the power socket, remembering the
safety instructions.

• Press the ON/OFF switch (11). The ON/OFF
pilot lamp will switch on (14) (fig. 4).

• Press the delivery switch (12). The pump will
switch on (fig. 5).

• Wait until water begins to flow from the boiler
nozzle (fig. 6), then press the delivery switch
again.

• After about 2 minutes, the “OK” pilot lamp
will light (15) (fig. 7).

• Press the delivery button again (12) allowing
water to flow from the boiler nozzle (fig. 6).

• After 15/20 seconds, press the delivery button
again to interrupt the flow of water from the
nozzle (12).

• Wait until the water in the boiler returns to the
correct temperature. When the OK pilot lamp
lights, repeat the previous operation.

To ensure perfect pre-washing, repeat the above
procedure at least five or six times.
The machine is now ready for use.

Features

To fit the filter-holder, place it under the boiler
nozzle (fig. 8). Then push the filter-holder
upwards and at the same time rotate it towards
the right as far as it will go.
A handy compartment in the lower section of the
casing can be used to store the measuring spoon
(fig. 9).
Cups can be placed on the shelf (fig. 10) for war­ming. If the machine is left switched on for a
while, the cups on the shelf will be warmed.
