Operation and use General instructions Observe the following instructions to make an aromatic espresso or coffee at just the right temperature. Rinse out cold cups with hot water to warm them up before use. Warm up your cups on the resting plate/ hotplate (1). Fill the water tank with fresh water. After heating up the appliance, allow hot water to run through the strainer insert and holder. Leave the empty, cleaned strainer insert with strainer holder in the hot appliance to heat up. Experiment with the amount of coffee powder until you nd the avour you prefer. As a general rule, add approx. 7 grammes of coffee powder for one cup of coffee/espresso and approx. 14 grammes of coffee powder for one large cup of coffee or two cups of espresso. Try various different levels of grinding neness for the coffee powder. The grinding neness has an inuence on the aroma and the cream of the espresso. If possible, use freshly ground coffee powder to assure optimum avour. Press in the coffee powder lightly. If the coffee powder is pressed too rmly, bitter substances can get into the coffee and the percolation time increases. Empty and clean the strainer insert after each use. Clean and descale the appliance at reg- ular intervals. A dirty and/or scaled appliance impairs the aroma. Filling the water tank

1. Swivel up the lid.

2. Remove the water tank (3) upwards.

3. Pour water up to the MAX marking.

4. Install the water tank (3) in the appliance

again and close the lid. ATTENTION ► Do not tilt the water tank when ins- talling. The valve on the underside of the water tank may be damaged. ► Make sure that both holders on the up- per edge of the water tank are inserted into the recesses on the rear of the appliance.
