4 INSTALLATION
For your own and for other people's safety, carefully
follow the "Safety Regulations" in section 3.
4.1 Packaging
The original packaging has been designed to protect the
machine during transport. We recommend keeping the
packaging for future transport.
4.2 Installation instructions
Before installing the machine, read the following safety
instructions carefully:
• place the machine in a safe place;
• make sure children cannot play with the machine;
• do not place the machine on hot surfaces or near open
fl ames.
The coffee machine is now ready to be connected to the
power supply.
Note: It is recommended to wash the parts before
their fi rst use and/or after they have not been
used for a certain period of time.
4.3 Machine connection
Electric current can be dangerous! It is therefore
essential to follow the safety regulations care-
fully. Never use faulty cords! Faulty cords and plugs
must be replaced immediately by Authorized Customer
Service Centres.
The voltage of the appliance has been set by the ma-
nufacturer. Check that the voltage supplied matches the
indications on the identifi cation label on the bottom of the
appliance.
• Check that the ON/OFF switch (18) is not pressed before
connecting the machine to the power supply.
• Connect the plug to a wall socket with suitable voltage.
4.4 Water tank
• (Fig.1) - Remove the accessory drawer (7), the drip tray
(8) and the grill (9).
• (Fig.2) - Remove the water tank (3). Be careful not to
damage the water suction pipe.
• (Fig.3) - Rinse and fi ll it with fresh drinking water taking
care not to overfi ll.
• (Fig.4) - Reinsert the tank into its seat. Take care to
correctly replace the previously extracted pipe
Only use fresh, non-sparkling drinking water to
fi ll the tank. Hot water or any other liquid may
damage the tank. Do not turn on the machine without
water: make sure there is enough water in the tank.
Note: For a quick water tank refi ll, the funnel
placed in the upper part of the machine can be
used. Open the funnel (Fig.5) and refi ll with water (Fig.6).
After refi lling, always close the funnel.
4.5 Priming the water circuit
Before starting up the machine, after long storage and
when the water has been used up, the machine’s water
circuit must be recharged.
• (Fig.7) - Press the ON/OFF switch (18). The inside light
turns on.
• (Fig.8) - Place a container below the steam spout. Open
the “hot water/steam” knob (5) by turning it counter-
clockwise.
• Wait until a steady jet of water is emitted from the steam
spout (pannarello).
• Close the “hot water/steam” knob (5) by turning it
clockwise. Remove the container.
The machine is now ready to brew coffee and dispense
steam. Please see related sections for operating details.
5 COFFEE BREWING
Caution! Do not remove the “Crema” fi lter holder
by manually turning it clockwise, during the
coffee brewing. Danger of burning.
• During this operation, the "machine ready" coffee switch
light (16) may fl ash on and off; this operation should be
considered as normal and not as a fault.
• Before using the machine, make sure that the hot water/
steam knob (5) is closed and that there is suffi cient water
in the tank.
• (Fig.7) - Press the ON/OFF switch (18). The inside light
turns on.
• Wait until the "machine ready" coffee switch light (16)
turns up. The machine is now ready for coffee brewing.
5.1 Using ground coffee
• (Fig.9-A) - Insert the fi lter (12) into the “Crema” fi lter holder
(13).
• (Fig.11) - Insert the fi lter holder in the Brew unit from the
bottom (2).
• (Fig.12) - Turn the fi lter holder from left to right until it locks
in place. Release the grip from the "Crema" fi lter holder.
The handle slightly turns on the left. This movement
guarantees the perfect operation of the fi lter holder.
• (Fig.14) - Preheat the “Crema” fi lter holder by pressing
the coffee switch (16). Water will spill out of the “Crema”
fi lter holder (this operation is only necessary for the fi rst
