13. Turn the function selector switch (5) back to the symbol.
14. When the water tank (2) is completely empty, turn the function selector switch back to the „O“ position.

Cleaning

The air has now been removed from the machine. Now please repeat steps 8 to 14 twice in order to clean the machine. The machine is then ready for operation.

Making a Espresso

1. Connect the machine to a correctly installed 230 V, 50 Hz safety socket.
2. Ensure that the function selection switch (5) is turned to the O position.
3. Place the drip grid (6) on the recess of the drip tray (7).
4. Open the lid (1) and pull the water tank (2) out by the handle if necessary.

5. Fill the required amount of fresh clear water into the tank. The water level must be between the MIN.- and MAX. mark. Reinsert the water tank if necessary.

6. Release the filter holder (11) by pressing the pressure compensation lever (16) and turning it to the left (☐) at the same time.

7. Insert the second sealing ring (17) into the fi liter holder with the bulge facing upwards. When you would like to prepare a cup of coffee, always place the adapter (15) in the fi liter holder, taking note of the indentations in the fi liter holder, and then the small fi liter (14). Please proceed in the order shown in ABB. A. If you would like to prepare two cups, proceed as shown in ABB. B. Now add one to two level measuring spoons of coffee. Distribute the coffee evenly and press the coffee powder lightly with a measuring spoon or other spoon. The aim of pressing the coffee powder with the spoon is to distribute it evenly in the coffee bowl rather than compressing it. We recommend that you use the tamper supplied (18). Carefully remove any excess espresso coffee from the edge of the fi liter.
8. Place the fi lter holder on the brewing head and turn it tight in the direction of "☐". Ensure that the fi lter holder is firmly secured in the brewing head.
9. Turn the device to the „” position with the function selector switch.
10. Pre-heating: The machine is ready for operation when after approx. 2 minutes the „(4d) control lamp lights up. For the best coffee taste we recommend that the machine be pre-heated for 10 minutes.
11. In order to preheat your espresso cups, place them on the warming plate (9) above the percolating head. The hotplate is only in operation when the function selector switch is in the positions „(4a) or „”(4c).
12. Remove the espresso cup(s) from the warming plate (9) and place them under the percolating head.
13. Turn the function selector switch (5) to the symbol OK
14. The espresso is now ready and is poured into the cup(s).

i NOTE:

If the control lamp „” goes off again before percolation has fi nished, the water temperature is no longer high enough. Turn the function selector switch (5) to „” (4c) and wait until the lamp goes on again. You can now continue preparing the espresso.

1. When percolation is fi nished, turn the function switch (5) back to the O position. The device is now switched off.

2. Press the pressure compensation lever (16) on the fi liter holder (11) before you remove the fi liter holder. The steam escapes below the fi liter holder. Turn the handle of the fi liter holder in the direction, In order to empty the fi liter holder hold the fi liter in its position using the fi liter retaining device (12) on the handle. Turn the fi liter holder (11) and knock out the used coffee. Remove the fi liter holder after making an espresso. By doing so, you will extend the service life of the rubber seal in the brewing head. To make other espressos, fi ll the coffee bowl (13 or 14) with coffee powder again and carry out the brewing procedure as described above.

Making a Cappuccino

To make a cappuccino, you must first make an espresso. Proceed as described under "Making an Espresso" from steps 1 to 15. To froth the milk, proceed as follows:

1. Make sure that the function selector (5) is in O position.
2. Swing the steam nozzle (10) out so that you can position the container (please use a heat-resistant container) comfortably under the nozzle.
3. Fill the container up to a 1/3 with fresh cold milk (warm, hot or stale milk does not froth). You will produce more stable foam if you use low-fat milk.
4. Turn the function selector switch to "A". The "and "m" control lamps light up. Wait until the "OK" control lamp lights up. The device is now ready for foaming.
5. Immerse the steam nozzle into the vessel just under the surface of the milk.
6. Now set the desired steam quantity by carefully turning the steam regulator (3) and moving the collection vessel gently up and down. Once the milk reaches the desired volume, you can warm the milk more by lowering the steam nozzle (10) to the bottom of the container. Do not make the milk boil or the froth will be ruined.
7. Turn the function selector switch (5) back to the O position; the device is now switched off.
8. Scoop out the froth into the espresso. Add liquid milk. A cappuccino is usually composed of 1/3 coffee, 1/3 hot milk and 1/3 frothed milk.

Your cappuccino is now ready. Improve the flavor by adding some cinnamon or chocolate powder.

Cleaning

• Before cleaning the device please turn the function selector switch to „O“ and remove the mains plug from the socket.
• Before cleaning the machine please wait until it has cooled down.
• The water tank, the drip tray, the drip tray cover of the fil iters and the fil iter holder can be cleaned by hand in warm soapy water. Do not use abrasive detergents. Rinse the parts regularly.
• If the filter's holes are clogged, clean it with a fine brush.
• Never immerse the device in water or other liquids.
• Never wash the parts or accessories in a dishwasher. The drip tray has an overflow protection. A red-marked "float" (8) is found in the tray. The more water the drip tray contains, the higher the float rises. To empty the tray you can remove the drip tray completely and lift the grid.
  • After frothing milk, the steam nozzle is to be immediately cleaned from all milk residues.

- If the milk dries, it becomes diffi cult to remove. To do so, dismantle the steam nozzle. Turn the joint above the steam nozzle through a quarter turn to the left and remove the upper section and the internal pipe (see device overview). Soak the steam tube in a container with water over night so that the milk residue softens. Place a heat-resistant container full of water under the nozzle so that the nozzle is dipped in the water. Then turn the function selector switch to the position and produce some steam, as described under "Preparing Cappuccino". Then turn the function selector switch back to O. Wipe the steam nozzle with a moist cloth to remove the milk residue before it hardens.

Descaling

- This appliance should be de-scaled on a regular basis, depending on the frequency of use and the quality of your water (i.e. hardness, mineral contents).

Please note: Use solemnly products recommended for household percolators. Please use the product according to its description.

• Use the appliance as described under "making espresso" until the tank is empty. Allow half of the solution to run through the brew head (without coffee and filter) and the remaining half trough the steam valve.
• Rinse the tank refi ll it and let 2 – 3 tanks of fresh cold water run through the system until you all odours of the de-scaling product have vanished.
