by pressing the 

 

button. hot water flows out of the spout, 

heating  the  internal  circuit  and  making  the  coffee  delivered

Tips for a hotter coffee

For a hotter coffee, you are recommended to:
•  before  delivering  coffee,  perform  a  rinse  cycle,  see 

previous section “Manual rinse”.

•  place the cups on the cup warmer until they are warm; 
•  warm the cups by rinsing them with hot water (using the 

hot water function);

•  set a higher coffee temperature in the menu. 

Preparing 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. 11).
2.  Place under the coffee spouts:
 

- 1 cup, if you want 1 coffee (fig. 9);

 

- 2 cups, if you want 2 coffees (fig. 12);

3.  lower the spouts as near as possible to the cup. This makes 

a creamier coffee (fig. 13).

4.  Press  the  button  corresponding  to  the  coffee  required 

once or twice (fig. 8).   

5.  once the coffee has been made, the appliance prepares 

for use again.

 Please note: 

•  While  the  machine  is  making  coffee,  delivery  can  be 

interrupted at any moment by pressing one of the coffee 
buttons.

•  At the end of delivery, to increase the quantity of coffee 

in the cup, just press (within 3 seconds) one of the coffee 
buttons.

once the coffee has been made, the appliance is ready to use 
again.

 important! 

if the coffee is delivered a drop at a time, too fast and not creamy 
enough  or  too  cold,  read  the  tips  in  the  “Troubleshooting” 
section on page 18.
various alarm messages could be displayed while the machine 
is in use. Their meaning is explained in the section “displayed 
messages” (page 17).

Making coffee using pre-ground coffee

 important!  

•  Never add pre-ground coffee when the machine is off or it 

could spread through the inside of the machine and dirty 
it. This could damage the appliance. 

• 

never use more than one level measure or 
it could dirty the inside of the machine 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  (fig.  14)  until  “ready  Pre-

ground” is displayed. 

2.  Put  one  level  measure  of  pre-ground  coffee  into  the 

funnel (fig. 15).

3.  Place a cup under the coffee spouts (fig. 9).
4.  Press one of the coffee buttons (fig. 8).      
5.  Preparation begins. 
once  the  coffee  has  been  made,  the  appliance  prepares  for 
use again. To disable the pre-ground coffee function, press the 

 button again. 

MAKING DRINKS WITH MIlK

 Please note! 

To avoid producing milk with poor froth or large bubbles, al-
ways clean the milk lid and hot water nozzle as described in the 
section “Cleaning the milk container” on pages 13 and 15. 

Filling and attaching the milk container

1.  remove the lid (fig. 16);
2.  Fill the milk container with a sufficient quantity of milk, 

not exceeding the MaX level marked on the container (fig. 
17).

 Please note! 

•  For  a  denser  creamier  froth,  use  skimmed  or  partially 

skimmed milk at refrigerator temperature (about 5°C).

3.  Make sure the milk intake tube is correctly inserted in the 

bottom of the milk container lid (fig. 18).

4.  replace the lid on the milk container. 
5.  remove the hot water spout from the nozzle (fig. 19).
6.  attach the container to the nozzle and push as far as it will 

go (fig. 20).
