PREPARING YOUR
ESPRESSO MACHINE
1. Place the espresso machine on a dry, stable
countertop or other flat, sturdy surface where
you will be using the machine.
2.
IMPORTANT:
For first-time use or if the
machine has not been used for some time,
it is important that it is rinsed as follows:
Remove the lid of the water reservoir. Using
the handle, lift the water reservoir off the base
and fill with fresh, cold drinking water.
Replace the water reservoir on the base, and
cover with the lid. Using the tracks as a
guide, slide the water reservoir back into
position and push down firmly to engage.
Important:
The unit will not function unless
the water reservoir is properly in place.
3. Insert the plug into a power outlet. Press the
power button once to turn the espresso
machine on.
All of the controls on the front
of the machine will flash while it’s pre-
heating.
Lights will turn steady when the unit
is in
ready mode
(approximately 1 minute).
4. Make sure the drip tray and grate are
in place.
5. Place a mug on the drip tray.
6. Press the MANUAL
button and allow the
water to run through for approximately 5 to
10 seconds. Press once more to stop.
7. If desired, place espresso cups on the
warming plate.
8. The machine is now in preheat/ready mode
and ready to use.
NOTE:
If the water reservoir is empty or not
properly positioned, the unit will not function.
The SHORT
, LONG , COFFEE
and
MANUAL LEDs will flash quickly. Turn off the
machine, fill the water reservoir, and turn the
machine back on. We recommend brewing a
short espresso without a capsule in place to
prime the machine. The machine is now ready
to use.
USING YOUR
ESPRESSO MACHINE
Always make sure you have water in the
reservoir, a capsule in the brew head, and
that the appropriate tray is being used.
NOTE: This machine is designed
exclusively for use with illy iperEspresso
®
capsule system. No other type of capsule,
pod, or coffee can be used.
To make espresso,
cappuccino and latte,
use an illy espresso
capsule. To make a
traditional coffee, use
an illy coffee capsule.
Short or Long
Pre-Programmed Espresso
1. Using the lever, open the brew head, insert an
espresso capsule, and close the brew head.
2. With an espresso cup on the espresso cup
tray, select either a SHORT
(1.2 ounces
[35 ml]) or LONG
(3 ounces [88 ml])
espresso. (The chosen setting and if
applicable the temperature setting LEDs
remain on, while all the other LEDs are off.
Once all LEDs are on again, the machine is
ready for the next cycle.)
For optimal results, we recommend using the
LONG button with the blue Lungo
iperEspresso
®
capsule. Using this setting with
other iperEspresso
®
varieties will alter the taste.
NOTE
: As part of the iperEspresso
®
capsule’s
patented technology, the brewing process is
completely self-contained in the capsule and
coffee does not come into contact with the brew
head. So there is no need to rinse in between
cycles as there will be no transfer of flavor.
CAUTION:
Scalding may occur if the brewing
head is opened during brewing cycle.
Pre-Programmed Coffee
1. Using the lever, open the brew head, insert a
coffee capsule, and close the brew head.
