ping, which serves to keep the water temperature optimum.
If small puffs of steam come out of the filter holder coupling seat, this phenomenon is to be considered absolutely
normal.
This machine is specifically designed to guarantee an excellent espresso coffee using Kimbo pods.
It is advisable to let the filter holder heat up a few minutes in its seat before making a cup of coffee so that the first cup is
piping hot, too. This will not be necessary for the cups of coffee that follow.
Filling the water tank during use
No special operation is necessary when the water in the tank runs out as the machine is equipped with a special self-priming
device. Just unplug the machine, pull out the tank and fill it with fresh cool water again.
HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO
To prepare a cappuccino or hot chocolate or to heat any other beverage, press the switch (R) Fig. 15; the indicator lamp (S)
turns on, ad indicare che è stata inserita la funzione vapore. When the lamp (Q) turns on, the machine is ready to generate
steam.
When warming up, your appliance may release small puffs of steam from the filter holder; this is perfectly nor-
mal.
Warning!
Danger of burns! The metal cappuccino maker may reach high temperatures. Use the rubber part to move the
cappuccino maker (Fig. 16).
Now open the steam tap (J) anti-clockwise, having the foresight to position a cup underneath the Maxi Cappuccino device
(L) Fig. 17: at first a little water will come out, immediately followed by a strong jet of steam.
Plunge the wand all the way into the pot of milk (Fig. 18) and open the dispensing cock (J) again until you get the result
you want. During these operations you may notice that the warning light (Q) goes on and off from time to time, indicating
that the boiler thermostat is keeping the water required for the steam supply at the right temperature.
It is opportune you start dispensing the steam only when this indicator lamp is off. Dispense the steam for a few
seconds after every use in order to free the hole of any milk residue.
After the cappuccino is prepared, press the switch (R) to cut out the steam function.
MAKING FURTHER CUPS OF COFFEE
To prepare a cup of coffee right after making cappuccino, it is necessary to bring the boiler back to the coffee preparation
temperature by performing these operations: press the steam function switch (R). You may notice that the indicator lamp
(Q) is on. This luminous indication serves to tell you that the temperature in the boiler is still high, i.e. it is still that for steam;
you must therefore wait a few seconds until the lamp (Q) turns off. Wait until the lamp (Q) turns back on before dispensing
the coffee.
If you want to cool down the boiler faster, place a container underneath the cappuccino maker, press switch (P) and at the
same time keep the cock (J) open. Make water come out of the Maxi Cappuccino device until when the indicator lamp (Q)
turns back on. Now close the cock (J) and turn the switch (P) off. Wait for the lamp (Q) to turn off before making another
cup of coffee.
HOW TO MAKE TEA OR TISANES
When the machine is in the coffee-ready position, i.e. with the lamp (Q) on, place a cup underneath the spout (L) and press
the coffee dispensing switch (P). Open the steam dispensing cock (I) immediately afterwards; in this way hot water will come
out of the spout. The maximum quantity for two cups is 200 ml.
