one that is suitable by qualified personnel. If the power cable (H) is damaged or requires repla­cing, contact an authorised service centre only as the operation requires special tools.
• Do not install the appliance in an atmosphere where the temperature may drop to or below 0°C (if the water freezes, the appliance may be dama­ged).
PREPARING THE COFFEE
1 Unscrew the boiler cap (B) by rotating anti-
clockwise.
2 Using the jug (Q) provided (fig. 1), pour the water
into the boiler (fig. 2) respecting the quantities given in the table at the end of the manual. Never exceed the quantities indicated as this would lead to poor functioning of the appliance. Always fill the boiler with the luminous switch (L) off.
3. Place the filter in the filter holder (Fig.3).
4. Using the measure provided, pour the coffee into the filter respecting the quantities indicated in the table at the end of the manual and distributing it evenly (fig.4). Use medium ground coffee as excessively finely ground coffee could clog the fil­ter (coffee for MOKA coffee makers can be used).
5. Remove any excess coffee from the edge of the fil­ter (fig.5).
6. To attach the filter holder to the appliance, hold it under the boiler outlet (fig. 6). Push the filter holder upwards and at the same time rotate it towards the right as far as it will go. Make sure the filter holder is firmly in place, the position of the filter holder handle with respect to the appliance is irrelevant.
7 The jug must be positioned under the filter holder
in such a way that the spout of the filter holder is inside the opening in the cover of the jug (fig.7).
8 Position the selector (A) to the type of coffee you
want to obtain: "LIGHT" for light coffee, "MEDIUM" for normal coffee, "STRONG" for strong coffee (fig.8).
9 Make sure the steam knob (F) is fully closed and
press the luminous switch. The indicator light comes on (fig.9).
10 It takes about three minutes for coffee delivery to
begin. After the coffee has been delivered, turn the luminous switch off.
IMPORTANT: To avoid discharge of steam, before removing the filter holder, always vent all steam
left inside the boiler by rotating the steam knob completely (fig. 10).
NOTE: For safety reasons, when the boiler is hot the cap cannot be opened as it rotates without unscrewing. If it must be removed for any reason, always vent the steam from the boiler first using the steam knob as described in the previous point. To remove the coffee grounds from the filter hol­der, turn it upside down and knock it repeatedly until the grounds are eliminated (fig. 11). Alter­natively, rinse the filter holder and filter under run­ning water.
IMPORTANT: To eliminate the "new" smell, the first time you use the appliance, perform the coffee­making cycle a couple of times without coffee grounds.
FITTING THE ADAPTER
To make coffee directly in the cup, the adapter (R) must be used. To fit, simply insert it in the bottom part of the filter holder (fig.12).
PREPARING CAPPUCCINO COFFEES
• Pour the quantity of milk required to make the cappuccino coffees (about 100 cc for each cap­puccino) into the milk tank (E) (fig. 13). Never exceed the MAX level (corresponding to about 250 cc) marked on the tank (fig. 14) otherwise milk may continue to drip from the milk tank tube after frothing has been completed. Always use fresh unboiled milk. Never use hot milk. When preparing four cappuccino coffees, the milk in the tank must be topped up.
•Prepare the coffee as described in the paragraph "PREPARING THE COFFEE" from point 1 to point 8, but using more water as specified in the table at the end of the manual.
•Turn the appliance on by pressing the luminous switch. Run off the coffee into the jug. When the coffee reaches either the 2 or 4 level indicated on the jug, stop delivery of the coffee by placing the coffee selector in the "CAPPUCCINO" position.
IMPORTANT: The 2 or 4 mark should correspond not to the level of the light coloured cream, but to the darker coloured coffee under the cream. Great care must be taken during this operation. If the level of coffee exceeds the 2 or 4 line, there will not be sufficient steam to froth the milk.
Pour the coffee into the cups.
• One at a time, place the cups containing the cof­fee under the milk tank tube (fig. 15) and wait
