• When the desired quantity of espresso has been made (35 ml), turn the selector knob
(O) to the central position (10).
• Remove the filter holder from the brewing head and throw away the used coffee pod.
2. STEAM FUNCTION
The thumping noise which occurs while steam is being produced comes from the inter-
mittent regulation of the pump and has no effect on the proper working of the machine.
If you wish to make an espresso immediately after using the steam function, the
appliance must first be allowed to cool down in order to achieve the correct temperature
for preparing an espresso.
When you turn the selector to the O setting, the appliance automatically cools down,
launching 3 pumping cycles. The cold water pumped in this way cools down the hea-
ting system. During the pumping cycles, the excess steam contained in the heating system
is released along with hot water into the drip tray. The release of steam and the
accompanying noise are required for the appliance to cool down.
Caution: during and after use, the metal parts of the nozzle (E) and the cappuccino
accessory (F) are very hot.
. Using the Cappuccino accessory (F)
The cappuccino accessory makes it easy to produce hot milk or frothy milk for making a
cappuccino, latte or hot chocolate, for example.
It is preferable to use very cold, very fresh, milk (kept in the refrigerator).
• Fill the water container with fresh, cold water (1) (2) (3) and turn on the machine (4).
• Put the cappuccino accessory in place on the steam nozzle.
• Place a cup under the cappuccino accessory.
• Pour about 30 oz (1/2 cup or 100 ml) of cold milk into a container.
• When your appliance is ready to make an espresso, turn the selector knob (O) to
preheat mode (15).
