Preparing the Espresso Machine for Use
7. Press the “
” Button – it is not necessary to wait for
the boiler to heat. This activates the water pump and
fills the brewing boiler with water. After a few seconds,
water will flow from the brew head. When the cup is
full, press the “
” Button again to stop the water
pump. The brewing boiler is now ready for use.

frothing arm.
9. Slowly open the “
” Dial by turning it counter-
clockwise, then press and hold the “
” Button. This
activates the water pump and fills the frothing boiler
with water. After a few seconds, water will start flowing
from the nozzle.
10. When the jug is about half full, release the “
” Button
and close the “
” Dial by rotating it clockwise until it
stops. The frothing boiler is now ready for use.
11. If no espresso is desired at this time, press the “
”
Button to turn the espresso machine off.
NOTE:
Do not press the “
” or “
” Buttons without
water in the tank. Damage to the water pump may occur.

1. Make certain the water tank has an adequate supply of
water (the water level should be between the “max”

trim ring.
5. Press the “
