COFFEE FLOW
4.6 Priming
Before using the machine for the first
time, after the appliance has been left
unused for a long period or when the water
and steam have run out, it is necessary to
prime the machine.
• Point the steam tube (“Pannarello”) over
the drip tray.
• Open the “hot water/steam” knob (6),
turning it in an anti-clockwise direction
and press the coffee switch (4).
• Wait until a steady stream of water flows
from the tube (“Pannarello”).
• Press the coffee switch (4) again and close
the “hot water/steam” knob (6), turning
it in a clockwise direction.
The machine is now ready to make a perfect
cup of coffee.

COFFEE FLOW
Warning! Do not remove the filter
holder by turning it manually in a
clockwise direction while the machine is
producing coffee. Danger of burning.
• During this operation the „machine on“
light inside the coffee switch (4) will go
on and off. This is perfectly normal.
• Before using the machine, make sure that
the “hot water/steam” knob (6) is closed
and that there is sufficient water in the
tank.
• Turn on the machine. If the coffee maker
is not working the light on the inside of
the main switch (3) will light up.
• Wait for the coffee switch, „machine
ready“ light (4) to come on. Now the
coffee maker is ready.
5.1 Using the pressure locking filter
holder
• Place the filter (12) in the pressure locking
filter holder (11).
•
Fit the filter holder into the coffee outlet
socket (7), pushing it upwards and turning
it to the right until it locks into place.
• Let go of the filter holder handle.
Automatically the handle will move slightly
to the left. This movement guarantees the
perfect functioning of the filter holder.
•
Place a cup under the filter holder.
To warm up the filter holder and the cup,
press the coffee switch (4); water will begin
to drip from the filter holder (this operation
is only necessary for the first cup of coffee).
• When the cup is sufficiently full, press the
coffee switch (4) again.
•
Remove the filter holder from the
machine by turning it to the left and pour
out any water that is left inside.
• If the special pressure locking filter holder
(11) is used, the same filter can be used
for one or two cups of coffee.
•
To make one or two cups of coffee,
add 1 or 2 even measures of ground
coffee to the filter.
• Tamp the coffee down lightly using the
press included with the coffee maker and
brush off any excess coffee from the edge
of the filter holder.
•
Fit the pressure locking filter holder
(11) into the coffee outlet socket (7), as
explained before, pushing it upwards and
turning it to the right until it locks into place.
•
Position two warmed cups under the
filter holder, making sure that they are
directly under the coffee spouts.
• Press the coffee switch. Wait until the cups
are sufficiently filled.
• Press the coffee switch again to stop the
coffee flow.
