filter and lightly press with the specially provided presser. Completely fill two measures for
two cups of coffee, and fill only one for one cup. Insert the filter holder into its seat. Tighten
well by turning it from left to right while making sure you have hooked it properly onto the
flange (Fig. 6).
Warning!
If too much ground coffee is put inside the filter, turning the filter holder may prove
difficult and/or you may get leaks from the filter holder when the coffee is being
dispensed.
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.
To start dispensing, press the switch (T). The coffee will start coming out of the spouts of
the filter holder. Press the switch (T) again to stop it.
The minimum serving of coffee is 50 ml.
Warning!
Like in professional coffee machines, do not remove the filter holder when the
dispensing switch (T) is on; danger of burns!
After the coffee is made, gradually loosen the filter holder by turning it clockwise so as to
decrease pressure inside of it. When the machine is in stand-by, the lamp (R) will turn on
and off periodically.
If small puffs of steam come out of the filter holder coupling seat, this phenomenon
is to be considered absolutely normal.
This shows that the boiler thermostat is tripping, which serves to keep the water temperature
optimum. It is a good idea to start dispensing the coffee only when this indicator lamp is
off.
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
(U); the indicator lamp (R) turns on. When it turns off, the machine will be ready to generate
steam.
Warning
When warming up, your appliance may release small puffs of steam from the filter
holder; this is perfectly normal.
Now open the steam dispensing cock (G) anti-clockwise, having the foresight to position a
cup underneath the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device (M) Fig. 8: 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. 9) and open the dispensing cock (G)
again until you get the result you want. During these operations you may notice that the
warning light (R) 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.
