HeadingPreparing your espresso machine
before use
1. Place the espresso machine onto a dry,
stable benchtop.
2. Ensure the drip tray and grill are in place.
3. Fill the espresso machine with water. There
are a couple of ways in which the water
reservoir can be filled;
a) Simply lift the lid of the water reservoir
at the top of the espresso machine (1)
and using a jug, fill with fresh cold
water or filtered water (2).
b) Alternatively the water reservoir can
be removed and filled with fresh cold
water. To do so, lift the lid and using
it as a handle simply slide out the
water reservoir (3). Then fill with fresh
cold water or filtered water (4). Replace
the water reservoir firmly and close the
lid (5).
4. Insert the power cord into a 230-240V
AC power outlet and switch the power on.
Press the power switch to turn the espresso
machine on (6). The light located on the
power button will illuminate red and the
'HEATING' light will illuminate amber, this
is to indicate that your espresso machine is
on and is heating up.
When the 'HEATING' light switches off,
this indicates that the espresso machine is
heated and ready to use (7).
Note: Before turning on the espresso machine
ensure that the operating dial is in the off
position.
5. Place glasses and cups on the warming
plate (8).
Important: For first time use or if the machine
has not been used for some time, it is
important that the machine is rinsed as
follows:
6. Fit the filter handle with either the one or
two cup filter basket (9). Secure the filter
handle to the group head (10) (11).
7. Place a sufficiently large container under
both pouring spouts (12).
8. Turn the operating dial clockwise to the
espresso setting (13) and allow the water
to run through until the water reservoir is
empty.
