1. Open the lid of the appliance (fig. 1), then extract the tank
by pulling upwards (fig. 2);

ceed the MAX level indicated (fig. 3). Put the tank back in
the appliance, pressing lightly to open the valves located
on the bottom of the tank.

Important: never operate the appliance without water in the tank or
without the tank.

with ground coffee (fig. 6);
4. Place a 0.5 litre container under the boiler outlet and an-
other 0.5 litre container under the cappuccino maker (fig.
7);
5. Wait for the OK light (B5) to come on (fig. 8), then immedi-
ately press the button (fig. 9) and deliver about half
the tank from the filter holder;
6. Turn the steam dial anti-clockwise (fig. 10) and deliver
all the water remaining in the tank from the cappuccino
maker;
7. Close the steam dial and press the button again;
8. Empty the two containers and replace them under the
boiler outlet and the cappuccino maker and repeat points
5-6-7.
Now the appliance is ready for use.
3.1 Auto-off
If the appliance is not used for a certain period of time (depend-
ing on the model), it switches off automatically (and the indica-
tor light goes out).
3.2 Tips for a hotter coffee
To make espresso coffee at the right temperature, the coffee
maker should be preheated as follows:
1. Turn the appliance on by pressing the
button (the I
light (B4) comes on) (fig. 4) and attach the filter holder to
the appliance without adding pre-ground coffee (fig. 6);
2. Place a cup under the filter holder. Use the same cup as will
be used to prepare the coffee in order to preheat it.
3. Wait until the OK light comes on (fig. 8) and immediately
afterwards press the button (fig. 9). Continue de-
livering water until the OK light goes off, then interrupt
delivery by pressing the same button again;
4. Empty the cup, wait until the
OK
light comes on again (B5)
and then repeat the same operation.
(It is normal for a small and harmless puff of steam to be given
off when removing the filter holder).
