To dispense steam, the selector button must be pushed in. The steam can be

Preheating the cups and the filter holder
We recommend pre-heating the cups and the filter holder, as this will ensure a higher
coffee temperature.
1. Insert the appropriate filter sieve for 1 or 2 cups into the filter holder.
2. Fit the filter holder to the appliance and place one or two cups underneath the
holder.
3. As soon as the operating temperature has been reached, the temperature
indicator light will turn off.
4. Turn the operating dial to the symbol.
5. Let the cup(s) fill up to approximately 3/4, and then turn the operating dial to its
neutral position to switch off the pump.
6. Put the cup(s) aside to warm up and pour out the water just prior to making
espresso. The cups may also be placed on the warming top to pre-heat them.
Filling the filter sieve with ground coffee
• Remove the preheated filter holder.
(Caution: the filter holder is hot)
• Fill with finely ground coffee:
- 1 cup = 1 level measuring scoop
- 2 cups = 2 level measuring scoops
• Note: if the filter holder is over-filled, it will not lock properly under the boiler outlet.
2 level measuring scoops is the maximum quantity.
• Use the measuring scoop to distribute the ground coffee evenly and press it down
lightly. Any excess coffee powder on the rim of the filter holder must be removed.
