For espresso coffee with a powerful aroma, we recommend using freshly ground special espresso coffee. -Keep ground coffee in the refrigerator; it will keep its aroma longer. - Do not overfill the filter. Use the measuring spoon. Remove any excess ground coffee. Important! - Before using for the first time, or after not having used for a considerable time, rinse the appliance as indicated in paragraph 4 “Using for the first time – rinsing”. - Fill the water tank with cold water. - Never remove the filter-holder or open the water tank lid, without having previously released the remaining pressure in the appliance (paragraph 2). Check that the appliance is unplugged.

Important: for ‘hot’ coffee, never use more than this amount of water.

3. Put the lid back on and screw right down (fig. 4).

4. Fit the coffee filter (without any coffee) into the appliance (fig.5): turn it firmly from left to right to put it into

‘locked’ position (fig. 6).

5. Place one container/cup under the filter holder and another under the steam nozzle

6. Plug the appliance in.

9. After a few minutes, hot water starts dripping. When the container/cup is half full, turn the selector knob

10. When there is no more steam, turn to stop (fig. 1).

Check that the appliance is unplugged and that there is no pressure. (see safety instructions)

1. Unscrew the lid of the water tank (fig. 2).

Measure out the right amount of water for your needs and pour it into the water tank. For instance: an Italian-sized cup (small cup for strong coffee) = 25 to 50 ml a standard-sized cup (for milder coffee) = 75 to 100 ml Up to 4 Italian cups or 2 standard cups can be made at one time, without adding water to the tank.

2. Pour the water into the tank (fig 3) and completely screw down the lid (fig 4).

3. Plug in the appliance. Fit the filter into the filter-holder. (fig.5)

4. Put the coffee into the filter holder using the measuring spoon. 1 full measuring spoon is the amount for 1

French or Italian cup (strong coffee)

5. Remove any excess coffee on the edge of the filter-holder.

allegro corrections* 18/09/02 16:34 Page 1112 Important: do not pack down the ground coffee.

6. Fit the filter-holder into the appliance turning it from left to right and locking it firmly into place (fig. 6).

7. Place a cup or low recipient (max. 20 ml) under the filter-holder (figure 7)

After 1 to 2 minutes, the coffee starts dripping. Wait until the coffee has stopped dripping before removing the container/cup and then turn the selector knob to the stop position. (fig. 1). Be careful! We advise you not to switch off the appliance before the “coffee” cycle is completely finished. At the end of the cycle, steam will dry out the coffee grounds thus producing a disc that is dry and easy to remove.

10. Eliminate any remaining pressure in the appliance. To do this, unplug the appliance and turn the

knob to steam until all the pressure is completely released. Turn the knob back to stop (fig. 1). Only once you have done this can the filter-holder be removed. To throw away the coffee grounds, keep the filter in place by pressing down with your finger on the special tipping lock, turn over the filter-holder and shake it to make the coffee grounds fall out.

6. PRODUCING STEAM FOR REHEATING

Steam is used to froth up milk and also to heat up water (tea, hot drinks).

1. Check that the appliance is unplugged and that there is no contained pressure.

2. Measure out a small amount of water and put it into the tank. For example: 50 ml of water

to heat up 100 ml of water. Important: for maximum efficiency, avoid putting more than 100 ml of water into the tank.

3. Completely screw down the lid (fig. 4).

4. Plug in the appliance.

5. Immerse the steam nozzle in the liquid to be heated up

8. Steam is produced after 2 to 3 minutes preheating.

9. Once the liquid is hot, turn back to stop and unplug.

10. Before turning the knob again, turn the knob to the position (fig. 10) to remove any steam, take care

to put a recipient underneath the steam nozzle. Be careful to avoid the risk of burns. Important: Immediately after use, wash the steam nozzle with a moist sponge. Making cappuccinos If you want to make cappuccinos, add 50 ml to the volumes indicated above. We recommend frothing up the milk before making the coffee. After having put the coffee into the filter-holder: - Fill up a small recipient with milk (use full fat milk if possible for a denser froth). For instance: 2/3 frothy milk to 1/3 espresso coffee. - Turn the knob to the position When the steam starts coming out, immediately place the recipient underneath it and make circular move- ments going up and down to froth up the milk (fig 11). Put a cup underneath the filter-holder - Turn the knob to the “coffee” position. Once the coffee has finished dripping, delicately pour on the frothy milk to finish the cappuccino. Let the pressure go down before opening the lid of the water tank. allegro corrections* 18/09/02 16:34 Page 1213
