9 If the machine is supplied with a strength selector, position the
lever according to the flavour of coffee desired,“light”,“medi-
um” or “strong” (fig.8).
10 Press the ON/OFF switch (fig. 9). The switch will light up.
11 The coffee will start to flow after approximately three minutes.
Turn off the power switch after sufficient coffee has been dis-
pensed.
12 Before unscrewing the boiler cap or removing the filter holder,
residual pressure must be released by slowly turning the steam
knob (fig. 10) so that the residual steam can escape.
Note: for safety reasons the cap turns freely and cannot be
opened when the boiler is hot.The tank therefore cannot be
refilled until all the water has been used or the boiler cools
down (to make this a quicker process, open the steam knob).
13 To detach the filter holder, turn the handle from right to left.
To r emove the used coffee lock the filter with the built-in lever
and let the coffee fall out by knocking the over turned filter
holder.
Coffee made directly into cups
The carafe can be used to make 2 or 4 cups of coffee.
If you prefer to make 2 cups only, fit the adaptor for cups to the
lower section of the filter-holder (fig. 12) and place the cups direct-
ly underneath the nozzles. In this way, the coffee will flow directly
into the cups.
