Before Using for the First Time
1. Before brewing your first cup of espresso, we suggest
you pre-clean the machine and prime the pump.
Place the Espresso Maker on a level surface.
2. Make sure the Espresso Maker is turned to the OFF position.
3. Grasp the water tank handle at the back of the Espresso
Maker and lift it up and off the unit. (See Figure 3.)
4. Fill the water tank to the MAX indicator line.
NOTE:
Never fill the water tank past the MAX indicator line.
Ensure water level is above the MIN indicator line.
WARNING:
Never operate the Espresso Maker without water
in the tank.
5. Replace the water tank to its original position. Fold the lid
and then the handle back over the water tank.
6. Place an empty (
do not add coffee
) 2-cup filter basket into
the filter holder. Insert and lock into the Espresso Maker
following the detailed description in the section: Brewing
Fresh Espresso.
7. Place a wide-mouth spouted container or cup under the 2-spout brew head.
8. Plug the unit into an electrical socket.
9. Brew 2 containers of water without coffee grounds, following the procedures outlined
in the Brewing Fresh Espresso section of this instruction manual. This will thoroughly
clean the unit.
10. Empty the container or cup and the water collected in the drip tray. You are now ready
to brew a delicious cup of fresh espresso.
