When the water stops pouring, empty the cup and repeat the process twice more. use the steam heating button (2d) to heat up steam and once heated up (the indicator on the button has illuminated solid), release some steam to a dish placed under the nozzle. CAUTION! When the water pump is turned on for the first time with the pressure switch, unusual sound may be heard which will stop in approximately 30 seconds. This is the water pump being vented and it is perfectly normal. CAUTION! The released steam jet is hot. Handle with care. Risk of burns!

ESPRESSO MACHINE WARMING

In order to achieve the best coffee aroma, warm the portafilter with the filtering basket and the cup by following these steps:

1. Remove the water tank and fill it with cold drinking water. Replace the tank in the appliance.

2. Choose a filter basket (6), place it in the portafilter (7) and position the portafilter in the group

head (10). Do not put coffee in the chosen filter basket.26

3. Place the drip tray (12) in the drip tray mounting space (11) and install the grate (13) on the

tray. Place a cup on the grate.

4. Make sure that the steam dosage knob (4) is set to “0”. Connect the device to the mains.

5. Plug the appliance to a power source and switch on by pressing the power switch (2a) – the

appliance is now warming up, which is signalled by the slow flashing of the indicators on the (2b) and (2c) buttons. Once the appliance has warmed up, the indicators will illuminate solid. Press the 1-cup button (2b) – hot water will begin to flow into the cup. Empty the cup when the water stops pouring. The appliance has been initially warmed up and you can brew coffee now. MAKING COFFEE

1. Warm up the device in accordance with the instructions above.

2. Detach the portafilter (7) with the warmed filter basket (6). Use the scoop (21) to fill the filter

basket with the appropriate amount of coffee: - small filter basket (6a) – max. 10 g of fresh, well-ground coffee (for one cup) - large filter basket (6b) – max. 20 g of fresh, well-ground coffee (for two cups) Tamp the coffee in the basket using the tamper (21). ATTENTION! Do not exceed the amount of 10 g of coffee for the small basket or 20 g for the large basket. ATTENTION! The portafilter is hot. Use the portafilter handle. Take extreme care – scalding risk.

3. Attach the portafilter with the appropriate filter basket filled with coffee to the appliance.

4. Place a cup in the centre of the drip tray grate or two cups next to each other under the por-

tafilter, if you wish to make two cups of coffee. The round holes in the grate (13) are located directly below the coffee dispensing spout. Cups can be warmed using the cup warmer (3).

5. Start the brewing by pressing the (2b) button for one cup or the (2c) button for two cups of

coffee. If the indicators on the (2b) and (2c) buttons are flashing slowly, the water is being heated up – do not start brewing until the lights illuminate solid. When the desired button is pressed, the appliance starts pouring water under high pressure through the portafilter with tamped coffee in the basket. ATTENTION! Water heating does not exceed 70 seconds at a time. The default pouring (brewing) time for one cup is set to approximately 20 seconds or 40 seconds for two cups. Depending on various circumstances (coffee variety, coffee grind size and tamp level), this corresponds to approximately 35 and 70 ml of coffee. Five short alarm sounds will indicate that the pouring is complete. The pouring time may be programmed within a 60 second range (see: “PROGRAMMING POURING TIME”).

6. The manometer (5) indicates the pressure during brewing, which may reach up to 20 bar.

However, the pressure during brewing depends on several factors, such as: the ambient tem- perature, atmospheric pressure, coffee variety, grind size or tamp level, and, therefore, the value may be lower.

7. If you want to make more coffee from the same dose, repeat the brewing process. Note that

the coffee will be weaker.

8. When the brewing is complete, proceed to milk frothing or turn the appliance off by pressing

the (2a) button, unplug it, detach the portafilter, remove the filter basket and immediately rinse and dry it for the next use.27

ATTENTION! The portafilter, filter baskets and group head are hot. Proceed with care to avoid scalding. Always hold the portafilter by the handle. Regularly empty the drip tray. ATTENTION! Regularly control the quantity of water in the tank. Do not allow the espresso machine to operate without water. Do not remove the water tank while operating the espresso machine. ATTENTION! The espresso machine is equipped with an automatic deactivation function after 30 minutes of operation. FROTHING MILK The milk frothing feature helps make milk froth or heat milk for the coffee. The milk is frothed with a jet of hot steam forced under pressure from the steam jet nozzle (14). Make your coffee first, then process the milk. CAUTION! The released steam jet is hot. Handle with care. Risk of burns!

1. Swivel the steam jet nozzle to the right of the espresso machine by handling the steam jet

rubber sleeve (15), as shown in Fig. 3. This way the nozzle can be easily put in the container with milk.

2. Turn on the steaming switch (2d) and wait until its LED is

steadily on. Now, hot steam is ready. CAUTION! The water heater is automatically turned off when the steam heater is running. This is to provide more heat for the steam.

3. Place an empty container under the nozzle (14) and gen-

tly turn the steam level knob (4) to the left to vent residu- al water from the nozzle. The nozzle will blow steam with water droplets, followed by steam only. Turn the steam level knob (4) off, to the uppermost position 0. CAUTION! The steam jet nozzle (14) has a guard (16). The guard (16) must be installed on the nozzle when in use. Risk of burns!

4. Put the container with milk under the nozzle (14) and im-

merse the nozzle tip in the milk. Now, gradually increase the steam level with the knob (4) while gently swirling the milk in the container. Gradually immerse the nozzle deeper in the milk. Do not froth milk longer than one minute at a time.

5. When milk frothing is complete, turn steam heating off by pressing the (2d) button. When

heating is off, the (2b) and (2c) button indicators are flashing quickly, indicating that the temperature is too high for another brewing process. Wait until the espresso machine cools down (the indicators have illuminated solid) before next brewing. You can speed up the cool- ing process by releasing some steam into a dish placed under the nozzle. After use, turn the appliance off by pressing the (2a) button, unplug it, wait until cooled down, and clean. CAUTION! Before unplugging from the mains, place a container with water under the steam jet nozzle, immerse it in the water, and flush the nozzle and its guard clean. This will prevent persistent milk stains. Fig. 328

1. Switch the espresso machine on and wait until ready for use (the indicators on the 2b and 2c

buttons have illuminated solid).

2. Start brewing your coffee by pressing the (2b) button. After 3 seconds, press the button

again and hold until you fill the cup with the desired amount of coffee (max. 60 seconds). When you release the button, the pouring time is programmed into the appliance memory.

3. Follow the same steps when programming the pouring time for two cups – button (2c).

4. To delete the programmed times from the memory and restore default settings, press the

steam jet button (2d) and 1-cup button (2b) at the same time. Hold the buttons for approxi- mately 3 seconds – the espresso machine will produce a short sound to confirm that default settings have been restored.

ESPRESSO MAKING TIPS

1. Use warm cups to make espresso. Heat them up with the cup heater (3). You can also quickly

heat up a cup by pouring hot water out of the espresso machine (with the filter holder and a filter secured in the receptacle without any coffee). Classic espresso should be made of a blend of various types of coffee and poured into a 70 ml cup, but only up to a half of it.

2. The espresso machine has a functionality allowing dosing hot water from the nozzle (14),

which may also be used for warming cups. Hot water is shot when the steam dosage knob is turned to the left and the appliance is in the standby mode (the (2b) and (2c) button indica- tors are illuminated).

3. When frothing milk for your cappuccino, use 100 ml of milk at a time. Pour the frothed milk

into the brewed coffee. Sprinkle with a bit of cocoa powder on top. A classic cappuccino recipe requires 25-35 ml of espresso.

4. For a better visual effect, make cappuccino in a transparent cup.

5. Always thoroughly remove coffee grain residues from the filters. Even trace amounts of old

coffee disrupt the taste of a fresh brew.

6. Froth semi-skimmed or fat milk, pre-cooled in a refrigerator. Froth milk in a small diameter

vessel so that the froth does not spray around. Milk can significantly increase its volume by frothing.

7. Do not brew coffee after frothing your milk; the espresso maker will output water too hot to

enjoy a good taste and aroma.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

CAUTION! Before cleaning, always unplug the espresso machine from the mains and wait until it has completely cooled down. CAUTION! Do not immerse the espresso machine in water or other liquids!

1. Clean the espresso machine after every use.

2. Clean the espresso machine housing with a damp cloth and thoroughly wipe it dry.

3. Clean the filter holder (7) and the handle (9), the filters (6a) (6b), the drip tray (12), the grate (13)

and the water tank (18) in warm water with mild detergent. Next, rinse clean and thoroughly dry.29

4. Clean the steam jet nozzle (14) after every use. Immerse the steam jet nozzle in water and

turn on the steam. Next, remove the guard (16) from the steam jet nozzle and wash it in warm water, rinse it clean and dry. Reinstall afterwards.

5. Periodically clean and inspect the operation of the tapped valve at the bottom of the water

tank. Clean the poppet valve under running water and gently press it several times in the process. Inspect and periodically clean the valve seat in the housing of the espresso machine.

6. Clean the flat filter located in the portafilter socket (10) after every 50 cups of coffee or so. In

order to clean the filter, follow these steps: use a screwdriver to loosen the screw holding the flat, round filter in the group head wash the filter in warm water with a detergent, then rinse and dry, check that filter mesh is unobstructed replace the clean filter and tighten the screw:

7. Descale the espresso machine every 4 or 5 weeks. Regular descaling ensures a better taste

and aroma of your coffee and extends the operating life of your espresso machine. Follow these steps for descaling: Prepare a water solution of citric acid: use 1 litre of water and 4 tablespoons of citric acid. Pour the mixture into the water tank. Attach the filter holder with an empty filter to the receptacle and install the drip tray with the grate. Place an empty container on the grate. Plug the espresso machine to the mains and turn on. Wait for the water to preheat. turn the water flow on by pressing the (2c) button, wait for some time, repeat three times, empty the dish as needed Turn on the steaming switch (2d). Wait for the steam to preheat. Place an empty container under the steam jet nozzle and release hot steam for about 1 minute. Discard the unused water with citric acid. Add clean drinking water to the tank.

Repeat the descaling process with pure water only (by passing hot water through the filter holder and venting steam) to remove residues of citric acid.

Remove the drip tray, turn off the espresso machine, unplug it from the mains and wait until it cools down completely.30
