OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This product is intended for household use only. WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one

wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

1. Read all instructions.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. Care must be

taken, as burns can occur from touching hot parts or from spilled, hot liquid.

3. To protect against electric shock, do not place cord, plug, or

appliance in water or other liquid.

4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or

near children.

5. Unplug from outlet when the espresso maker is not in use and

before cleaning. Unplug and allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning the appliance.

6. Appliance must be operated on a flat surface away from the edge

of counter to prevent accidental tipping.

7. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or

after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Call our toll-free customer service number for information on examination, repair, or adjustment.

8. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the

appliance manufacturer may result in fire, electrical shock, or personal injury.

9. Do not use outdoors.

10. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot

surfaces, including stove.

11. Be certain filter holder is securely in place when brewing espresso.

Scalding may occur if the filter holder is removed during the brewing cycle.

12. Do not place appliance on or near a hot gas or electric burner or

in a heated oven.

13. Always plug cord into the wall outlet before turning on any

controls. To disconnect appliance, turn controls to OFF and then remove plug from wall outlet.

14. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not

remove the bottom cover. No user-serviceable parts are inside. Repair should be done by authorized service personnel only.

15. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

Tips for Making Espresso

• For best results, use fresh-ground, dark, espresso roast coffee.

• If espresso preground coffee is used, store the unused portion in an

airtight container and keep in a cool, dark area for up to one week.

• The grind of the coffee will affect the taste of the coffee and how the appliance works. If the grind is too coarse, water will flow too fast through the coffee and result in a weaker flavor

. If the grind is too fine, the flavor may be too strong or bitter, and the grounds may clog the filter.

• For hotter espresso, preheat the filter holder, the ground espresso filter, and the pod filter by first brewing water into the cups for a few seconds and then emptying the brewed water. CAUTION: The filter holder, ground espresso filter, and pod filter are hot.

• Espresso beans may be ground in a coffee grinder. For best results, use the Hamilton Beach Custom Grind™ coffee grinder on the espresso setting. If grinding espresso in a store or using a burr mill, then use a setting that is one to two notches coarser than the espresso setting.

• Grind your espresso so that it looks gritty, like salt or sand. It is too fine if it looks like powder and feels like flour. If the coffee is ground too fine, then the water will not flow through the coffee.

• Espresso pods make it even easier to brew a great cup of espresso and cleanup is as easy as throwing out the used pod. Pods can be purchased at many local coffee houses and specialty housewares stores. A Web search for “coffee pods” will also connect you with many coffee pod suppliers.

• Always use cold water to make coffee. Warm water or other liquids could cause damage to the appliance.

POTENTIAL PROBLEM

Espresso will not flow out.

Machine is noisy when operating.

Espresso is too weak.

Espresso is too strong or bitter.

Difficult to froth milk.

Steam runs out too quickly.

PROBABLE CAUSE

• Is the water reservoir empty?

• Is the water reservoir properly fitted into position?

• Make sure that the coffee grounds are not overpacked in the filter.

• Is filter holder properly fitted into the espresso maker?

• Clean the filter, filter holder, and brew head.

• Is the water reservoir empty?

• Is the water reservoir properly fitted into position?

• Is the filter holder properly fitted into position?

• Always use fresh espresso ground coffee and tamp the ground coffee down firmly.

• The longer the brew time, the weaker the espresso (1 serving = 1 to 1-1/2 ounces).

• Be sure there is sufficient ground coffee in the filter.

• Coffee grounds are too coarse.

• Try a different brand or roast of coffee.

• Ensure steam control dial is OFF. If the steam control dial was left on, the water may have been too hot. Rotate steam control dial counterclockwise to release steam into a frothing cup or pitcher and allow appliance to cool. Then repeat steps in the section How to Use.

• Too much espresso ground was used.

• Grounds were too fine.

• Brew longer before pressing espresso button to OFF.

• Try different a different brand or roast of coffee.

•

Use the Hamilton Beach Custom Grind™coffee grinder.

• Always use fresh, cold milk (skim milk is recommended).

• Use a cold, stainless steel cup and move the cup slightly up and down while frothing.

• Clean the frothing nozzle.

• Make sure that the steam button is depressed and that the temperature/ready light is on.

• Trying to froth too much milk; reduce amount of milk in cup.

• Reprime the pump. See Before First Use on page 4.
