tips for a hotter coffee

For a hotter coffee, before delivery you are rec-

ommended to:

•  rinse the appliance through by pressing the 

 button� Hot water flows out of the coffee 

spouts  and  heats  the  internal  circuit  of  the 

machine so that the coffee delivered will be 

hotter�

•   warm the cups with hot water (using the hot 

water function); 

•   select  the  “high”  coffee  temperature  in  the 

menu�

making coffee using coffee beans

Important! 

Do not use caramelised or candied coffee beans 

as they could stick to the coffee mill and make it 

unusable� 

1�   Fill the container with coffee beans (fig� 13)�

2�   Place under the coffee spouts:

 

 - 1 cup if you want one coffee (fig� 10);

     - 2 cups if you want 2 coffees�

3�   Lower the spouts as near as possible to the 

cup� This makes a creamier coffee (fig� 14)� 

4�  Press  the  button  corresponding  to  the 

number of coffees required (1 cup   

   or 

2 cups 

 , figs� 11 and 15)�

5�  Preparation  begins  and  the  lights  corre-

sponding to the taste and quantity of coffee 

selected are displayed� 

Once  the  coffee  has  been  made,  the  appliance 

prepares for use again�

Please note: 

•  While the coffee maker is making coffee, de-

livery can be interrupted at any moment by 

pressing one of the two coffee buttons (

 

or 

)�  

•  At the end of delivery, to increase the quantity 

of coffee in the cup, just press (within 3 sec-
onds) one of the coffee buttons (

 or 

)� 

Please note: 

For hotter coffee, see the section “tips for a hot-
ter coffee
”�

Important! 

•  If the coffee is delivered a drop at a time, too 

thin and not creamy enough or too cold, read 

the tips in the “Troubleshooting” section on 

page 21�

•  Lights may be displayed on the control panel 

during  use�  Their  meaning  is  given  in  the 

section  “Explanation of the lights” on page 

19�  

making coffee using pre-ground coffee

Important! 

•  Never add pre-ground coffee when the ma-

chine  is  off  or  it  could  spread  through  the 

inside of the machine and dirty it� This could 

damage the appliance� 

•   Never  use  more  than  1 

level measure or it could 

dirty the inside of the cof-

fee  maker  or  block  the 

funnel� 

           Please note: 

If you use pre-ground coffee, you can only make 

one cup of coffee at a time� 
1�  Press  the 

button  repeatedly  (fig�  9) 

until the 

 symbol appears�  

2�   Put one level measure of pre-ground coffee 

into the funnel (fig� 16)� 

3�   Place a cup under the coffee spouts�

4�  Press the 1 cup coffee button 

 (fig� 11)�      

5�  Preparation begins�  

mAkInG CAPUCCIno 

Important! Danger of burns 

During preparation, steam is given off� Take care 

to avoid scalds� 

1�   When making cappuccino, prepare the cof-

fee in a large cup;

2�   Fill a container with about 100 grams of milk 

for each cappuccino to be made� In choosing 

the  size  of  the  container,  bear  in  mind  that 

the milk doubles or triples in volume� 

Please note! 

 

For  a  richer  denser  froth,  use  skimmed  or 

partially  skimmed  milk  at  refrigerator  tem-

perature (about 5°C)�
