3) Steam operation indicator

6) Removable drip tray

8) Pull-out shelf (for small cups)

10) Adjusting lever for steam nozzle

6. Preparing the appliance

Remove all the packaging. Wash the water container, milk pitcher, milk pitcher lid, steam nozzle, wand and portafilter thoroughly with water and mild detergent (cf. also “If using a large cup, place it directly on the drip tray grating under the coffee spout on the portafilter. If using a small cup, pull out the shelf and place the cup on it. Do not pull the shelf out completely in order to maintain a firm surface.” on page 72). Rinse the parts well with clean water and dry them carefully. Place the appliance on a heat-resistant, sturdy, level surface. Run a machine cycle without coffee and milk in order to remove manufacturing residues. Fill both containers with water and follow the instructions below, then throw the water away.

7. Using the espresso machine

Fill the water container with fresh tap water to a level between the MIN and MAX marks. Fill the milk pitcher with milk (unskimmed, semi-skimmed, soya milk, etc. according to preference) to a level between the MIN and MAX marks. Place the required filter insert in the portafilter with the spout pointing forwards. Turn the filter insert to the right or left in order to clamp the filter insert in the portafilter. Alternatively, you can raise the filter holder and grip the filter with it, e.g. when removing the coffee grounds. Fill the filter with freshly ground espresso coffee up to the MAX mark. Press the coffee powder down into the filter, using the flat end of the measuring spoon to help (see diagrams below).72 of 118 NOTE! Alternatively you can put the pod holder in the portafilter with a coffee pod instead of the filter. Insert the portafilter in the machine with the handle pointing to the left. Turn the handle to the right until it is pointing forwards in order to fix it in position. If using a large cup, place it directly on the drip tray grating under the coffee spout on the portafilter. If using a small cup, pull out the shelf and place the cup on it. Do not pull the shelf out completely in order to maintain a firm surface. CAUTION! Risk of injury. There is a risk of scalding from hot steam. When making caffè latte or cappuccino, make sure that the steam nozzle reaches into the cup. Connect the mains cable to a properly installed and earthed safety socket. Switch the machine on (switch position I). Initially the espresso operation indicator light will flash red and the machine will start heating up. The machine is ready for operation as soon as the espresso operation indicator light stops flashing and turns blue.DE

73 of 118 NOTE! If no buttons are pressed for 15 minutes, the machine will automatically switch to standby mode and will stop heating up. 7.1. Making espresso Turn the function switch to the left in order to start the espresso preparation process. After a few seconds the espresso coffee will start pouring out of the spout. As soon as the cup is full, turn the function switch back to the centre position (OFF) to stop the flow. NOTE! By turning the function switch to the centre position (OFF), you will switch off the two functions for making espresso and producing steam. Press the On/Off switch (position 0) if you want to turn off the appliance completely. 7.2. Making cappuccino/caff è latte In order to make a cappuccino, you need 1/3 espresso, 1/3 foamed milk and 1/3 steamed milk. The proportions for a caffè latte are 1/4 espresso with 3/4 steamed milk. Start by frothing the milk and then make the espresso. Place a large enough container under the steam nozzle. Turn the frother control to the right to the position in order to produce a large amount of froth. Turn the frother control to the left to the position in order to produce milk with a small amount of froth. Turn the function switch to the right in order to start the cappuccino or caffè latte preparation process. After a few seconds froth/milk will start flowing out of the steam nozzle. NOTE! Turn the frother control to the right to increase the amount of foam and to the left to decrease the amount. This setting can be changed during the preparation process. As soon as there is enough froth/milk in the receptacle, turn the function switch back to the centre position to stop the process. Now turn the function switch to the left in order to start the espresso preparation process. After a few seconds the espresso coffee will start pouring out of the spout into the frothed milk. As soon as the cup is full, turn the function switch back to the centre position (OFF) to stop the flow. 7.3. Frothing the milk If you just want to froth milk, e.g. for other drinks like latte macchiato or chai latte, follow the instructions above. In this case omit the espresso preparation step.74 of 118

8. After the preparation process

Take hold of the portafilter by the handle and turn it to the left to remove it from the machine. Lift up the filter holder and tap on the filter to remove the coffee grounds. To make another coffee, fill the filter again and proceed as instructed above. If you do not want to make any further drinks, switch the machine off (switch position 0) and unplug from the mains. If there is any milk left in the pitcher, remove the milk pitcher by pulling it forwards at a slight angle. Store the milk pitcher in the door of your refrigerator. The filter insert and portafilter can be stored on the back of the machine.

9. Cleaning the appliance

WARNING! Risk of electric shock. There is a risk of electric shock due to live parts. Never immerse the appliance in liquids! The plug must be disconnected from the mains socket before cleaning (pull on the plug, not on the cable). CAUTION! Risk of injury! There is a risk of scalding due to the hot surfaces. The outside of the machine will become hot during operation. Allow the machine to cool down completely before cleaning it. CAUTION! Risk of damage to the appliance. Property damage due to improper use. Do not use chemical solutions and cleaning products because these may damage the surface and/or the inscriptions on the product. Do not wash the machine parts in the dishwasher. Wash the water container, milk pitcher, milk pitcher lid, steam nozzle, wand, pull-out shelf, drip tray grate, drip tray and portafilter thoroughly with water and mild detergent. Rinse the parts well with clean water and dry them carefully. Wipe the surfaces of the machine with a soft and slightly damp cloth which has been soaked in a mild soap solution. Wipe the bottom of the brew head with a damp cloth or paper towel to remove any remaining coffee grounds.DE

75 of 118 9.1. Descaling/fl ushing the machine The frequency of the descaling process depends on the hardness of the water. The machine should be descaled after about 40 brewing operations in a hard water area and after about 80 brewing operations if the water is soft. Make sure that the product is switched off and unplugged. Descaling the espresso unit

1) Fill the water container with white household vinegar. Place it in the machine.

2) Leave the vinegar in overnight.

4) Fill the water container with white household vinegar up to the MIN mark.

5) Insert the portafilter (with filter but without coffee) and place a sufficiently large

receptacle underneath the coffee spout.

6) Insert the plug into the mains socket.

7) Switch the machine on (switch position I).

8) Once the machine has heated up, turn the function switch to the left in order to start

the espresso preparation process. After a few seconds the vinegar will start pouring out of the spout.

9) As soon as all the vinegar has run through, turn the function switch back to the centre

position (OFF) to stop the process. Repeat the steps with tap water as required to remove all remaining traces of vinegar from the machine. Cleaning the frother unit

1) Fill the milk pitcher with water, put the lid on it and place it in the machine. Set the

2) Place a large enough container under the steam nozzle (minimum capacity of 325

3) After the heating-up phase turn the function switch to the right in order to generate

steam. Steam will start to come out of the nozzle after a few seconds and this will clean the nozzle.

4) Continue for about 30 seconds and then turn the function switch back to the centre

position (OFF) to stop the process.

5) Throw the water away.

Repeat the steps with tap water as required until the unit is completely clean. If you do not want to make any drinks, switch the machine off (switch position 0) and unplug from the mains.76 of 118
