appliance may be damaged if the water freezes).

HOW TO MAKE ESPRESSO COFFEE

FILLING THE WATER TANK

Remove the water tank lid (fig. 1) and then take out the
tank by pulling upwards (fig. 2).
Fill the tank with fresh clean water, taking care not to
exceed the MAX level (fig. 3).
Replace the tank, pressing lightly to open the valve
located on the bottom of the tank.
More simply, the tank can also be filled without
removing it, pouring the water directly from a jug.
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.

N.B.: Never use the appliance without water in the tank
and always remember to top up when the level drops
to a couple of centimetres from the bottom.

PREHEATING THE COFFEE UNIT

To obtain espresso coffee at the right temperature, the
coffee machine should be preheated as described:

1.Turn the appliance on by pressing the ON/OFF
button (the button lights up) (fig. 4) and attach the
filter holder to the appliance

coffee

2.Place a cup under the filter holder. Use the same cup
as will be used to prepare the coffee in order to
preheat it.

3.Wait for the "coffee ready" light (fig.6) on the
coffee button to come on and immediately
afterwards press the coffee button. Run off the water
until the light goes out, then stop the flow by pressing
the same button again.

4.Empty the cup. Wait until the "coffee ready"
light comes on again then repeat the same
operation.

HOW TO PREPARE ESPRESSO COFFEE USING THE
FILTER HOLDER FOR GROUND COFFEE

1.After preheating the appliance as described above,
place the ground coffee filter in the filter holder,
making sure the projection is correctly inserted in the
slot as shown in fig. 7. For appliances with two
filters, use the smallest for one coffee and the largest
for two coffees.

2.To make just one coffee, place one level measure of
ground coffee, about 7 grams, in the filter (fig. 8). To
make two coffees, place two loosely filled measures
of ground coffee (about 6+6 g) in the filter. Fill the
filter a little at a time to prevent the ground coffee
from overflowing.

IMPORTANT: for correct operation, before filling with
ground coffee, make sure there are no coffee
residues left in the filter from the last time you made
coffee.

3.Distribute the ground coffee evenly and press lightly
with the presser (fig. 9).

N.B.: Correct pressing of the ground coffee is
essential to obtain a good espresso. If pressing is
excessive, coffee delivery will be slow and the froth
will be dark. If pressing is too light, coffee delivery
will be too rapid and the froth will be skimpy and
light coloured.

4.Remove any excess coffee from the rim of the filter
holder and attach to the appliance. Rotate firmly

(fig. 5) to avoid water leaking out.

5.Place the cup or cups under the filter holder spouts
(fig. 10). You are recommended to heat the cups
before making the coffee by rinsing them with a little
hot water or placing them to warm on the cup
warmer shelf on top of the appliance for at least 15­20 minutes (fig. 11).

6.Make sure the "coffee ready" light (fig. 6) is on
(if it is off, wait until it comes on), then press the
coffee button. Once the required quantity of coffee
has been obtained, interrupt flow by pressing the
same button again (fig. 6).

7.To remove the filter holder, rotate the handle from
right to left.

IMPORTANT: to avoid splashes, never remove the
filter holder while the appliance is delivering
coffee.

8.To dispose of the used coffee, block the filter in place
using the lever incorporated in the handle then empty
the grounds by turning the filter holder upside down
and tapping (fig. 12).

9.To turn the coffee machine off, press the ON/OFF
button (fig. 4).
