1.0 Safety instructions
Children do not understand how dangerous electrical appliances can be.
For that reason, children should never
be allowed around electrical appliances without supervision.
Do not use the appliance without studying the user manual or being shown
how to operate it.
Never use an appliance with a faulty
cord. Since special tools are needed
to replace a damaged cord, this work
must be carried by a manufacturerdesignated repair station.
Do not immerse the appliance in
water. Do not use the appliance with
wet hands.
Do not remove the filter holder while
the coffee is pouring. As the appliance
is under pressure, wait until the coffee
has stopped pouring.
The socket to which the appliance is
connected must be earthed. For your
safety, we recommend the use of an
FI safety adapter (available from all
good electricians).
Place the appliance on a firm, level
surface. The surface must not be
warm or hot. Choose a position which
is out of reach of children or pets.
Be careful when touching the steam
nozzle and filter holder as they become hot when the appliance is in operation (DANGER OF SCALDING!).

SERVICE
3.4 Vent the appliance. To do this,
place a large container under the hot
water/steam jet and turn the rotary
switch until a steady stream of water
comes out of the nozzle. Let it run
until about 2 dl of water has been
collected and then turn the rotary
switch off again. The appliance has
now been vented.
3.5 Rinse the appliance out. To d o
this, fit the empty filter holder and
place a cup underneath. Turn the coffee switch on until the cup is full.
Turn the switch off again. The appliance has now been rinsed out.
Note: If the coffee temperature light
remains red when the appliance is first
heated, no water can flow through the
filter holder. The appliance can only be
rinsed out when the green light comes
on. When the appliance has heated
up, the temperature light may change
from green to red. This is perfectly
normal and has no effect on the quality of the coffee.
3.6 The appliance is ready to operate when the temperature light
shows green. We recommend lea-
ving the empty filter holder in place
while the appliance is heating up so
that it is pre-warmed.
3.0 Starting up
3.1 Fill the water container with
cold water up to a maximum of 3 lit-
ers. Insert it into the rear of the appliance and press home firmly so that
the base valve opens. Close the cover.
Note: Use only fresh cold water to fill
the container. Do not use mineral
water, milk or any other fluid.
3.2 Pull the required length of
cord out from the back of the
appliance. Leave the rest in the spe-
cial cable compartment. Connect the
appliance to an earthed socket.
3.3 Turn the main switch to ON.
The appliance must now be vented
and rinsed out.
Note: The best time to remove air
from the appliance is when it is cold.
For this reason, start the venting operation as quickly as possible after
switching on.
