Using your coffee maker for the first time
Take your coffee maker out of the box
and remove the packaging.
Before using the coffee for the first time, clean thoroughly by operating two or three times with the maximum volume of fresh water (6 cups) but without using coffee.
Wash the detachable parts of the machine in warm soapy water.
Making a perfect espresso coffee
1 Unscrew the pressure cap by turning
it anti-clockwise. 2 To fill the water tank ¤ use your glass
jug  to measure the volume of water
required. The jug is marked with the
water levels for 2 cups (minimum), 4
cups and 6 cups (maximum).
Always switch the machine off and
remove the plug from the socket before
filling the water tank. Care should be
taken to ensure that the correct quantity
of water is placed in the tank, as the
machine always uses all the water. 3 Close the pressure cap tightly by turning
it clockwise. 4 Place the washable metal filter into
the filter holder and add the desired
quantity of coffee to the filter using the
measuring spoon provided. Special
marks on the inside of the filter show the
correct levels for 2, 4 and 6 cups of
coffee. Using the flat end of the spoon
lightly compress the coffee down.
Remove excess coffee from the edge of
the filter. 5 Position the filter holder underneath the
water outlet , push it upwards and turn
it to the right into the locked position to
fix it onto your coffee machine.
Note : Push firmly to the right to lock into
position.
6 Your machine is fitted with a strength
selector which allows you to make LIGHT to STRONG coffee. Set the strength selector mid way between LIGHT and STRONG for MEDIUM strength coffee.
7 Place your glass jug with the lid on the
drip tray ‡ and · directly under the spout of the filter holder, ensuring that the jug handle is pointing outwards from
the unit. Press the on/off switch „ to ‘ON’ and the orange light will glow. The coffee will start to flow from the filter holder spout after about 2 or 3 minutes. Wait until all the water from the water tank has flowed into your glass jug and the green light glows.
8 Set the on/off switch to ‘OFF’. 9 When the filtering process is complete
remove the glass jug from your coffee maker and pour the coffee into your cups.
10 Unplug machine and allow to cool.
Slowly remove the pressure cap.
11 To remove the used coffee grounds,
remove the filter holder by turning the handle to the left until you find that the filter holder drops down. Flip the filter retaining clip so that it retains the filter. Turn the filter upside down and knock out the grounds. Flip the retaining clip back along the handle before the next use.
Note: Due to the amount of steam lost through the process, the coffee produced will be less than the water put in. This is accounted for in the amount to put in.

Making a perfect cappuccino coffee
Prepare your machine as described in the section, ‘How to make a perfect espresso coffee’. Use your glass jug for measuring the correct amount of water needed. Follow steps 1-11 how to make a perfect espresso.
Frothing milk
It is advised to start heating your milk ready for frothing several minutes before making coffee to ensure milk is hot. 1 Fill the stainless steel milk jug provided
with the required amount of milk. Do not
exceed the maximum level or add less
than the minimum level. 2 Place the jug on the hot plate and switch
on, the orange light will glow. 3 Once the coffee is brewed, the milk is
ready to froth. Lift the milk jug up to the
milk frother blade (see diagram). Raise
the milk jug ensuring that the frother
blade is just under the surface of the
milk - this will give the maximum froth.
Push and release the milk frother button.
TAKE CARE AS THE MILK WILL BE HOT.
When the milk is frothy, (which normally
takes around 30 seconds), press the
milk frother button once more to stop the
frother.
4 Pour the coffee into cups and gently
pour or preferably spoon the milk onto the coffee, then sprinkle a little chocolate powder for perfect cappuccino. Turn off the milk frother hot plate by pressing the neon on/off switch.
Warning: the stainless steel jug and the hotplate will remain hot for sometime after switching off.
The milk frother blade can be removed for easy cleaning by unscrewing the blade. Wash carefully in hot soapy water. It is recommended that you remove the blade immediately after use, as dried milk can be difficult to remove. To replace, insert the stem of the milk frother blade into the mounting hole on the unit and screw into place.
There may be some splash back of milk on the underside of the frothing unit. Switch the unit off then simply wipe this area clean with a damp cloth.

Refilling
Cleaning care

Descaling
• If you live in a hard water area, we recommend that your coffee maker is descaled at regular intervals, e.g. every 2­3 months. In areas of moderately hard water you should descale every 6 months.
• If the water filters through more slowly than usual, it is a sign that descaling is necessary.
•We recommend you use proprietary liquid descaler which is especially made for coffee makers and plastic kettles. Follow the instructions on the bottle or sachet, and then operate the coffee maker with just water 3 times before making coffee.
• Do not use kettle descaler unless the packet specifically states it is suitable for coffee makers.
Unplug the coffee maker, slowly remove
the pressure cap and allow to cool.
Do not immerse the coffee maker in liquid.
Rinse the water tank occasionally with cold water. Do not use a cloth as any residue or lint may be left behind to clog the coffee maker.
Wash the milk frother blade, drip tray, glass jug, lid, filter and filter holder, in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry all parts thoroughly. Refit filter, filter holder and milk frother blade.
Wipe all external surfaces with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Never use harsh or abrasive cleaners.
ALL WASHABLE PARTS ARE DISHWASHER SAFE.
