1. Insert the power plug into the outlet and press the ›on/off‹-switch to turn on the
aapliance. The power indicator lights red. During preheating the heating indica-
tor lights red. Once the appliance is ready for use, the heating indicator turns off.

selector switch back to the ›standby‹-position (center).
PRE-HEATING THE CUPS
Once the appliance is turned on, the heating plate on the top of the appliance is
heated. Place your cups onto the heating plate to preheat your cups. Thus coffee
does not cool off when running into the cup.
INSERTING THE PORTAFILTER
1. Grasp the portafilter with the filter filled at the black handle and hold the porta-
filter under the grouphead. The handle has to point obliquely to the left front at
about a 45 ° angle.
2. Turn the portafilter so far to the right as possible (Lock labeled with at the grou-
phead). The portafilter is thereby locked into the appliance.
BREWING THE ESPRESSO
Once the appliance has reached the operating temperature, the heating indicator
turns off.
Note:
If the appliance is an extended time in standby position the heating indicator
begins to light up in between. If the temperature decreases in the grouphead, the
heater will automatically switch on again to maintain a constant operating tempe-
rature. Once the operating temperature is reached, the heating indicator turns off.
The appliance is back in standby position.
1. Make sure that the drip tray and the grate are inserted correctly and the water
tank is filled.
2. Insert the portafilter filter with filter and espresso powder or pad into the appli-
ance.
3. Place one or two warmed cups under the portafilter.
4. Turn the selector switch to the right into the espresso position. After a few seconds
the espresso runs automatically from the portafilter. A pump noise can be heard.
