Preparing 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 button once to turn the
espresso machine on (6). The light located
on the power button will illuminate red and
the temperature indicator line on the LCD
will start to flash from the
symbol, this
is to indicate that your espresso machine is
on and is heating up.
When the temperature indicator line on the
LCD has stopped flashing and 'READY' is
displayed, 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 on the side of
the espresso machine 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. Ensure the espresso machine is in
espresso/hot water mode, so the red light
on the
power button and the orange light
on the
button are illuminated.
Note: Should the espresso machine not be in
espresso/hot water mode, so the orange light
on the
button is not on, the coffee maker
needs to press the
button the activate
the espresso/hot water mode. By design the
temperature of the espresso machine will
adjust as necessary.
Once the espresso machine is heated to
the correct temperature, the temperature
indicator line on the LCD will stop flashing
and
and 'READY' will be displayed.
Tip: Remember if 'READY' is not displayed on
the LCD the espresso machine is adjusting
the temperature of the heating system.
9. Turn the operating dial anticlockwise to
the
espresso setting (13) and allow
the water to run through until the water
reservoir is empty.
