• Arrange the power cable in such a way that it cannot be
damaged by sharp edges or contact with hot surfaces (e.g.
electric hot plates).
• The appliance gives off heat. After positioning the appli-
ance on the worktop, leave a space of at least 3 cm be-
tween the surfaces of the appliance and the side and rear
walls and at least 15 cm above the coffee maker.
Connecting the appliance
Danger!
Check that the mains power supply voltage corresponds to that
indicated on the rating plate on the bottom of the appliance.
Connect the appliance to an efficiently earthed and correctly
installed socket with a minimum current rating of 10A only. If
the power socket does not match the plug on the appliance,
have the socket replaced with a suitable type by a qualified
professional.
FILLING THE WATER TANK
1. Open the lid (fig. 1) and extract the tank by pulling it up-
wards (fig. 2);
Important!
At first use, thoroughly clean the water tank with warm water.
2. Fill the tank with fresh clean water, taking care not to ex-
ceed the MAX level (fig. 3). Put the tank back in the appli-
ance,
pushing it down
to open the valves located on the
bottom of the tank;
3. More simply, the tank can also be filled without extracting
it by pouring the water directly from a jug.
Important:
Never operate the appliance without water in the tank or with-
out the tank. Check the water level in the water tank by the
display (A11).
SETTING UP THE APPLIANCE
1. Turn the knob to
ON
position to switch on the appliance
(fig. 4): the
ON
pilot light turns on;
2. Insert the required coffee filter (1 or 2 cups) in the filter
holder (fig. 5);
3. Attach the filter holder onto the machine without filling it
with ground coffee (fig. 6);
4. Place a 0.5 l / 17 oz container under the boiler outlet and
another 0.5 l / 0.5 l / 17 oz container under the cappuccino
maker (fig. 7);
5. Wait until the
READY
light comes on (fig. 8) and immedi-
ately afterwards turn the selector dial to the
posi-
tion (fig. 9) and let about half the tank discharge from the
boiler outlet;
6. Then turn the steam dial to the
position (fig. 10)
and discharge all the water remaining in the tank from the
cappuccino maker;
7. Turn the steam dial back to the
0
position and the selector
dial to the
ON
position;
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.
Important!
No water is delivered or pump is too noisy:
make sure the
tank is filled and placed correctly and repeat the operation till
water is delivered.
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 turning the selector dial to
ON
position (the
ON
light comes on) (fig. 4) and attach the fil-
ter holder onto the appliance without adding pre-ground
coffee (fig. 6);
2. Place a cup under the filter holder. Use the same cup to be
used later to prepare the coffee, in order to preheat it;
3. Wait until the
READY
light comes on (fig. 8) and imme-
diately afterwards turn the selector dial to the
position (fig. 9) and let water discharge until the
READY
light turns off, then interrupt by turning the dial to the
ON
position.
4. Empty the cup, wait until the
READY
light comes on again
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).
Use of the mug or high glass tray
When using mugs or high glasses (for example, if you prepare
long coffee or latte macchiato), remove the drip tray and put the
mug/glass on the tray (A13 -fig. 11). Once finished the prepara-
tion, put the drip tray back in place.
HOW TO MAKE ESPRESSO COFFEE USING PRE-

C3) in the filter holder
To make one coffee, use the filter with the
