BEFORE making espresso the first time, you MUST prime the pump!
Here’s how to do it:
1. Plug the electrical cord into a live outlet.
2. Fill the water reservoir. (Filtered water is better.)
3. Place an empty filter into the black handled filter holder.
4. Attach the filter holder to the machine.
5. Turn on the power switch.
6. Allow the machine to heat up for 6 minutes.
7. Open the steam valve all the way.
8. Place an empty steam pitcher or mug under the steam tube.
9. Turn on the coffee switch and the steam switch.
10. Water will come out of the steam tube.
Il.
Allow about a cup of water to come out into the pitcher.
12. Turn off the coffee and steam switches.
13. Close the steam valve.
14. Place an empty cup under the coffee filter.
15. Turn on the “coffee” switch.
16. Fill the cup with water.
17. Turn off the “coffee” switch.
YOU ONLY NEED TO PRIME THE PUMP AGAIN ONLY IF NO WATER
COMES OUT OR THE PUMP IS MAKING TOO MUCH NOISE.
