HOW TO MAKE ESPRESSO COFFEE

FILLING THE WATER TANK

1. Open the water tank lid (fig. 1) and then take out

the tank by pulling upwards (fig. 2).

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.

3. 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.

NB: 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 must be preheated. Press the ON/Off

button (fig. 4) at least 15 to 30 minutes before

making the coffee, making sure the filter holder is

attached to the appliance (check that the steam knob

is closed). To attach the filter holder, position it under

the boiler outlet with the handle towards the left (see

fig. 5), push it upwards and at the same time rotate the

handle firmly towards the right.

Wait for half an hour, then make the coffee as

described in the following section.

Alternatively, you can preheat more rapidly by

proceeding as follows:

1.Turn the appliance on by pressing the ON/OFF

button (fig. 4) and attach the filter holder to the

appliance without adding ground 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 OK indicator light to come on (fig. 6),

then immediately press the coffee knob (fig. 7). Run

the water off until the OK indicator light goes out,

then interrupt delivery by pressing the coffee button

again (fig. 7).

4.Empty the cup. Wait until the OK indicator light

comes on again then repeat the same operation.

(It is normal for a small and harmless puff of steam to

be given off when removing the filter holder).

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. 8. Use the smaller filter to make

one coffee or the larger filter to make two coffees.

2.To make a single coffee only, place one level

measure (about 7 g) of ground coffee in the filter.

(fig. 9). To prepare two coffees, place two loosely

filled measures (about 6+6 g) of ground coffee in the

filter. Fill the filter a little at a time to prevent the

ground coffee from overflowing.

IMPORTANT: for correct operation, before adding the

ground coffee to the filter holder, clean the filter from

residues of ground coffee from the previous infusion.

3.Distribute the ground coffee evenly and press lightly

with the presser (fig. 10). NB: 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 the filter holder to the appliance.

Rotate firmly (fig. 5) to avoid leaks of water.

5.Place the cup or cups under the filter holder spouts

(fig. 11). 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 top plate

for at least 15-20 minutes (fig. 12).

6.Make sure the OK light (fig. 6) is on (if off, wait until

it comes on), then press the coffee button (fig. 7).

When the required quantity of coffee has been run

off, press the same button again (fig. 7). (You should

not run off coffee for more than 45 seconds at a

time).

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 eliminate the used coffee grounds, block the filter

in place using the lever incorporated in the handle

and empty the coffee by turning the filter holder

upside down and tapping (fig. 13).

9.To turn the coffee machine off, press the ON/OFF

button (fig. 4).

IMPORTANT: the first time the appliance is used, all

accessories and the internal circuits must be washed

through by making at least five coffees without using

ground coffee.

HOW TO PREPARE ESPRESSO COFFEE

USING PODS

1. Preheat the appliance as described in the section

"PREHEATING THE COFFEE UNIT", making sure

the filter holder is attached. This obtains a hotter

coffee.

NB: Use pods conforming to the ESE standard

indicated on the pack with the following logo:

The ESE standard is a system accepted by leading pod

producers and enables espresso coffee to be prepared

simply and cleanly.

2. Place the small filter (1 cup or pods) in the filter

holder, making sure the projection is correctly

inserted in the slot as shown in fig. 8.

3. Insert a pod, centring it as far as possible on the

filter (fig. 14).

Always follow the instructions on the pod pack to

position the pod on the filter correctly.

4. Attach the filter holder to the appliance. Always

rotate as far as it will go (fig. 5).

5. Proceed as in points 5, 6 and 7 in the previous

paragraph.

HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO COFFEE

1.Prepare the espresso coffees as described in the

previous paragraphs, using sufficiently large cups.

2.Press the steam button (fig. 15) and wait for the OK

light to come on (fig. 6). This indicates that the boiler

has reached the ideal temperature for steam

production.

3.3. In the meantime, fill a recipient with about 100

grams of milk for each cappuccino to be prepared.

The milk must be at refrigerator temperature (not

hot!). In choosing the size of the recipient, bear in

mind that the milk doubles or triples in volume.

NB: YOU ARE RECOMMENDED TO USE SEMI-

SKIMMED MILK AT REFRIGERATOR TEMPERATURE.

4.Place the recipient containing the milk under the

cappuccino maker (fig. 16).

5.Dip the cappuccino maker into the milk for about 5

mm and turn the steam knob anticlockwise (fig. 17),

taking care not to immerse the raised line on the

cappuccino maker (indicated by the arrow in fig.

17). Turn the steam knob at least a half turn

anticlockwise (fig. 18). Steam is discharged from the

cappuccino maker, giving the milk a creamy frothy

appearance. To obtain a creamier froth, dip the

cappuccino maker into the milk and rotate the

container with slow movements from the bottom

upwards.

6.When the required temperature is reached (60°C is

ideal), interrupt steam delivery by rotating the steam

knob clockwise and at the same time pressing the

steam button (fig. 15).

7.Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the

espresso coffee prepared previously. The

cappuccino is ready. Sweeten to taste and, if desired,

sprinkle the froth with a little cocoa powder.

NB: To prepare more than one cappuccino, first make

all the coffees then at the end prepare the frothed milk

for all the cappuccinos.

NB: to make coffee again after the milk has been

frothed, cool down the boiler first or the coffee will be

burnt.

To cool it, place a container under the boiler outlet,

press the steam button and run off water until the OK

light goes out.

Make the coffee as described in the previous

paragraphs.

IMPORTANT: always clean the cappuccino maker

after use. Proceed as follows:

1..Discharge a little steam for a few seconds by

rotating the steam knob (fig. 18). This empties any

milk left inside the steam spout.

IMPORTANT: To ensure hygiene, you are

recommended to follow this procedure each time you

make cappuccino to avoid milk stagnating in the milk

circuit.

2.With one hand, hold the cappuccino tube firmly and

with the other unscrew the cappuccino maker itself

by rotating clockwise and extracting downwards (fig.

19).

3.Remove the nozzle from the steam tube by pulling it

downwards (fig. 20).

4.Wash the cappuccino maker and steam nozzle

thoroughly with warm water.

5.Make sure the two holes shown in fig. 21 are not

blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin.

6.Replace the steam nozzle by inserting it onto the

steam tube and rotating firmly towards the top of the

tube.

7.Replace the cappuccino maker by inserting it and

rotating anticlockwise.

2.Place a recipient under the cappuccino maker.

3.Press the coffee button (fig.7) and at the same time

turn the steam knob anticlockwise (fig.18). Water

comes out of the cappuccino maker;

4.To interrupt delivery of hot water, close the steam

knob by rotating clockwise and press the coffee

button again (fig. 7). (You should not run off hot

water for more than 45 seconds at a time).

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

1. Before performing any cleaning operations, leave

the appliance to cool down and unplug from the

5.Rinse under running water, rubbing all the time.

6.Screw the boiler outlet back on.

Failure to clean as described above invalidates the

guarantee.

DESCALING

You are recommended to descale the coffee machine

about every 200 coffees or a maximum of every two

months.

You should use a commercially available product

specifically for descaling espresso coffee machines.

If such a product is not available, proceed as follows.

1. Fill the tank with half a litre of water;

2. Dissolve 2 spoonfuls (about 30 grams) of citric acid

(obtainable from chemist's or drug stores);

3. Press the ON/OFF button and wait for the OK

indicator light to come on.

4. Make sure the filter holder is not attached and

position a recipient under the boiler outlet.

5. Press the coffee button, half empty the tank by

turning the steam knob every now and then to run

off a little solution. Stop run-off by pressing the

button again.

6. Turn the appliance off.

7. Leave the solution to work for 15 minutes then turn

the appliance on again.
