HOW TO SET THE COFFEE TEMPERATURE

The machine allows the coffee temperature to be set: hot
coffee      or alternatively very hot coffee     .
To set the temperature, press the SET button and the 
button together for 5 seconds (Fig. 13). The      or        light
will turn on to indicate the selected temperature.

AUTO-OFF FUNCTION

The machine will switch off automatically one hour after
the last operation (coffee or cappuccino). To deactivate the
auto-off function, press the SET and ON/OFF buttons

To  re-activate the

function, repeat the operation.

HOW TO PREPARE COFFEE USING THE FILTER
HOLDER FOR PODS (if fitted) 

1.Press the filter holder button and insert the pod into

the filter (fig. 14). Follow the instructions on the pod’s
box to pur correctly the pod oon the filter.

Note:  Use pods which conform to the ESE standard:
this will be indicated on the packaging by the
following symbol:

The ESE standard is a system accepted by the leading
coffee pod manufacturers, and allows espresso coffee
to be prepared simply and without any mess.

2.Attach the filter holder onto the machine, moving

from left to right 

Note: to ensure effective closure and avoid leaks of
water from the rim of the filter holder, you are
recommended to grease the bottom of the lateral tabs
from time to time with butter or oil (as shown in fig. 33).

IMPORTANT: Should the coffee holder for pods be
used after one for ground coffee, it’s necessary to
clear the ground coffee remained in the espresso
boiler outlet (fig.15). This cleaning operation is
necessary in order to avoid water leackeges from
the coffe holder for pods whele coffee is being
preposed.

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

paragraph (how to prepare espresso coffee using the
filter holder for ground coffee). 

4.To remove the pod, press the button on the filter

holder and simply lift the pod out

5.

To switch off the machine, press the on/off button     

(fig.3).

HOW TO CHANGE THE PRE-SET QUANTITIES M1 AND
M2

The machine has been factory-set to automatically deliver

two specific quantities of coffee:

M1 normal espresso coffee = around 30cc;

M2 long espresso coffee = around 50cc.

The pre-set quantities refer to espresso coffee made
using the filter holder for ground coffee. As the filter
holder for pods is different from the filter holder for
ground coffee, slightly more espresso coffee will be
made using the pods 

These quantities can be changed as follows:

1. 

Follow the instructions described in points 1 to 6 in the
chapter “HOW TO PREPARE ESPRESSO COFFEE
USING THE FILTER HOLDER FOR GROUND COFFEE”.

2. 

Press the SET button to select the pre-set quantity, M1
or M2, that you wish to change

and wait for at least

5 seconds.

3. 

To  change the set quantity for 1 cup, press the SET
button and the 1 cup button   together for at least 5
seconds 

(fig16). 

While to change the set quantity for 2

cups, press the SET button and the 2 cups button
together for at least 5 seconds

(fig 17). 

The M1 or M2

light will flash to indicate that the reprogramming
operation is in progress, and the machine will start to
make the coffee.

4. 

As soon as the coffee in the cup has reached the
required quantity, press the SET button to save the new
value

(fig. 10).

HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO

1.Prepare espresso coffee, using cups that are large

enough for cappuccinos

2.

Press the      button

(fig. 18); 

the OK light      (Fig.19)

will start to flash.

3.When the      light stops flashing and remains on, the

machine has reached the ideal temperature for the
production of steam.

4.In the meantime, fill a container with approximately

100 gr. of milk for each cappuccino to be prepared.
The milk must be cold from the refrigerator (not
warm!). In choosing the container, bear in mind that
the volume of the milk will increase by 2 or 3 times.

NOTE: We suggest you used semi-skimed milk at

refrigerator temperature.

5.Position the container with the milk in it under the

milk frother (fig. 20).

6.Immerse the cappuccino maker nozzle about 2 cm

deep into the milk and turn the steam knob in an
anti-clockwise direction, fig. 21 (by turning the knob
to a greater or lesser extent, it is possible to vary the
quantity of steam that comes out from the cappuccino
maker). At this point, the milk will begin to increase
in volume and to appear frothy.

7.Once the desired temperature has been reached (the

ideal temperature is 60°C), stop the delivery of steam
by turning the steam knob in a clockwise direction.
After having used the steam, some steam may be
