How to prepare espresso coffee
Filling the water tank
To r emove the water tank lift the lid (fig.2) and simply pull
upwards (fig 3) and fill the tank at the sink (fig 4). Do not exceed
the MAX level on the water tank. The tank may also be filled with-
out removing it, simply by pouring water into it directly from a jug.
Replace the tank by connecting the valve at the bottom of the tank
with the hole in the base on the machine.
WARNING: it is completely normal for there to be water in the
compartment under the tank; as a result, this compartment should
be dried using a clean sponge.
Note: Do not operate the appliance without water in the tank
and always remember to fill the tank when the level drops to a
couple of centimetres from the bottom.
Preheating the coffee machine
To ensure your espresso coffee is dispensed at the right tempera-
ture it is essential that the coffee unit is preheated.
1. Turn the selector knob so that the indented line on the selec-
tor points to the boiler “ON” function (fig. 5). Red light
next to will come on.
2. Attach the empty filter holder (without coffee) to the machine
by positioning it under the boiler outlet with the handle
towards the left (fig 6). Push upwards and at the same time turn
the handle as far right as possible. It does not matter if the
handle is not centrally aligned with the machine, as long as the
filter holder is firmly attached to the appliance.
3. Position a cup under the filter holder. Use the same cup that
the coffee will be served in, so that it may be preheated.
4. Wait until the “OK” light comes on (fig 7) and turn the selector
knob to the espresso function position (fig 8). Allow
water to flow until the “OK” light goes out, then stop the flow
of water by turning the selector knob to the boiler “ON” func-
tion (fig 5)
5. Empty the cup, wait until the “OK” pilot light comes on again
and repeat the whole operation one more time.
(It is normal for a small and harmless puff of steam to be given off
when removing the filter holder).
