DESCALING SIGNAL:

• When warning light D blinks YELLOW, a descending cycle should be carried out (see ch. Descaling).

HEATING UP:

• Buttons A-B-C blink simultaneously.

WHEN THE WATER RUNS OUT DURING OPERATION:

• The water tank is empty when indicator light D blinks RED and the appliance emits 3 beeps followed by a single intermittent beep.
• Fill the water tank with fresh, still water (Fig. 4).
• Press one of the buttons A-B-C. Wait for the machine to complete the water circuit filling cycle.
• When buttons A-B-C turn on and remain steadily lit, the appliance is ready for use.

IF THE LEVER IS RAISED WHILE DISPENSING:

• Raising the lever while dispensing a product (Fig. 1) may cause splashes of hot water. Danger of scalding!
• Warning light D blinks RED and the machine emits a single intermittent beep. The appliance will immediately stop dispensing.
• Close the lever (Fig. 3).
• Press one of the buttons A-B-C to reset the alarm.
  The appliance is ready for use again.

Adjusting the cup/espresso cup height

• The machine can be adjusted for the use of large cups or espresso cups.
• The machine is initially set for the use of large cups (Fig. 7).
• To achieve the best results when using espresso cups, you must lift and turn the grid on top of the drip tray (Fig. 10).
• At this point you may place an espresso cup under the coffee dispensing spout (Fig. 8).
• If using tall glasses, you will need to remove the drip tray (Fig. 15).
• At this point you may place a tall glass under the coffee dispensing spout (Fig. 16).

Correct use of the buttons

To dispense "Espresso" or "Caffé crema", use solely buttons A or B (1st and 2nd from the top respectively, lit in WHITE). The same buttons, depending on the quantity, are to be used for dispensing capsules of orzo, ginseng, cocoa or milk.

Button C (3rd from the top, lit in BLUE) must be used solely for "Filter coffee" or "Americano" (very mild). This same button can be used for capsules of tea, chamomile tea or herbal tea.

Do not use button C for espresso or any other coffee with an intense flavour. In this function the machine is set for low pressure and this reduces the "crema", diminishes the flavour of the coffee, and could cause a break in the flow.

Wee

NOTE: Traces of the product just dispensed may remain in the circuit of the machine. To retain maximum beverage flavour it is advisable - when dispensing milk, hot chocolate or instant drinks - to perform a short rinse. Rinsing this is performed using one of the cleaning capsule supplied and pressing any button (A, B or C).

Iuld advise you to carry out this procedure at least once a week in any case.

• Raise the lever to eject the used capsule into the drawer (Fig. 1).
• Close the lever (Fig. 3).

NOTE: the quantities of coffee dispensed may be programmed according to personal taste, and the size of the cup or mug used.
Tb program the quantities, please refer to ch. "Programming the quantity of coffee in a cup".
