7. Remove excess coffee from the edge of the filter
(Fig. 18).
8. To attach the filter-holder, position it under the
boiler outlet with the handle towards the left (Fig.
19), and push it upwards while turning the handle
firmly toward the right.
Always turn the handle as far as it will go.
9. Place the small carafe for espresso under the filter-
holder (Fig. 20).
Make sure the filter-holder spouts are inside the
opening in the carafe lid.
10. Turn the Vario System selector to the type of coffee
you want to make: LIGHT or STRONG (Fig. 21).
11. Make sure that the steam knob is closed by turning
it clockwise.
12. Press the ESPRESSO/CAPPUCCINO ON/OFF
button (Fig. 22) for espresso coffee. The
espresso/cappuccino ON light will illuminate
indicating the espresso coffee maker is operating.
13. After about two minutes, the espresso coffee starts
to run out from the filter-holder spouts (Fig. 23).
CAUTION: To prevent splashes, never remove the
filter-holder while the appliance is dispensing coffee.
14. When coffee no longer runs out of the filter-holder,
press the ESPRESSO/CAPPUCCINO ON/OFF
button to turn the coffee maker off.
15. Pour the coffee into the cups.
16. To dispose of the used coffee grounds, unfasten the
filter-holder. Block the filter using the lever
incorporated in the handle and empty the grounds
by turning the filter-holder upside down and
tapping (Fig. 24).
CAUTION: Before removing the filter-holder, to
avoid puffs of steam, completely eliminate any
residual steam in the boiler by turning the steam
knob counter-clockwise (Fig. 25).
NOTE: For safety reasons, when the boiler is hot the cap
cannot be opened, but turns without catching. If you
need to remove it for any reason, first vent all the steam
in the boiler using the steam knob as described above.
USING THE TWO-CUP ADAPTER
The adapter must be used when you want to make
coffee directly in the cups rather than in the carafe.
To apply the adapter, hook it onto the bottom of the
filter-holder (Fig. 26).
IMPORTANT: When using the appliance for the first
time, all the accessories and the internal circuits must
be washed as follows:
• DRIP COFFEE MAKER: Make at least two carafes
of coffee without using ground coffee (following
the instructions in the section HOW TO MAKE
DRIP COFFEE).
• ESPRESSO MAKER: Make at least four
cappuccinos without using ground coffee and
using water instead of milk (following the
instructions in the section HOW TO MAKE
CAPPUCCINO).
HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO
1.To make two cappuccinos, prepare the espresso
coffee as described in the section HOW TO MAKE
ESPRESSO COFFEE from point 1 to point 11, but
add the quantity of water required to make two
cappuccinos up to level
2
on the WATER LEVEL
side of the carafe, as shown in the table at the end
of the instructions. (Note: the quantity of water for
making cappuccinos is greater than that needed for
espresso. The additional water is used to produce
steam to froth the milk).
2.Pour the milk into the reservoir (Fig. 27) up to level 2
(corresponding to two cappuccinos) marked on the
inside of the reservoir.
NOTE: Use reduced fat milk (or preferably fat-free
milk) at refrigerator temperature.
3.Press the ESPRESSO/CAPPUCCINO ON/OFF
button for espresso coffee. The espresso/cappuccino
indicator light will illuminate to indicate the espresso
coffee maker is operating.
4.Let the coffee drip into the small carafe. When the
darker coffee (which is below the lighter colored
cream) reaches level 2 on the COFFEE LEVEL side of
the carafe (Fig. 28), position the Vario System
selector on CAPPUCCINO (Fig. 21). This must be
done with the utmost care. If the coffee goes above
level 2, there will not be enough steam left afterward
to froth the milk.
5.Pour the coffee into two sufficiently large cups.
6.Make sure that the milk reservoir is correctly
positioned and hooked to the appliance, then place
a cup containing the coffee made previously under
the milk reservoir spout.
7.Make sure the
IFD
light is on (if off, wait for it to come
on). Turn the steam knob counter-clockwise. The
frothed milk begins to come out of the spout. Let the
frothed milk flow into the cup until the level of the
milk in the reservoir drops one step (corresponding
to level 1 marked on the inside of the reservoir).
To interrupt the flow of milk, turn the steam knob
clockwise.
8.Prepare the second cappuccino by repeating steps 6
and 7.
