Before Start-up

Unpack the Espresso machine carefully. Take out all the accessories and the packing

material. Wash the accessories in a sink. To clean the device, carry out 2-3 complete

cycles with clean water before brewing the first espresso. Proceed as described in item 1

to 7 of Making an Espresso" without using espresso coffee though.

Making an Espresso

1. Connect the machine to a correctly installed 230 V, 50 Hertz safety socket.

2. Ensure that the on/off switch (0/1) (6) is in the 0 position.

3. Place the draining grid in the indentation of the draining tray.

4. Open the lid and remove the water tank by the handle.

5. Fill the required amount of fresh clear water into the tank.

6. Release the filter holder(10)by turning the handle to the left(INSERT).

7. Place the filter(12or13)into the filterholder'(10). 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 a flat surface plunger, Ensure that the filter holder is

firmly fixed in the percolating head.

8. In order to preheat your espresso cups, place them on the warming plate (2) above

the percolating head.

9. Switch the machine on using the on/off switch (0/1) (6). The control lamps (4+ 5)

located on the right and left in the function control light up.

10. When the water has reached the required temperature, the control lamp (5) on the

right-hand side (READY) switches off. Note: if the control lamp lights up again before

percolation is finished, the water temperature is no longer high enough. Turn the

function selection switch (3) to 0 and wait for the lamp to go out again. You can now

continue preparing the espresso.

11. Remove the espresso cup(s) from the warming plate (2) and place them under the

percolating head.

12. Turn the function switch (3) to the symbol showing the espresso cup.

13. The espresso is now ready and is poured into the cup(s).

14. When percolation is finished, turn the function switch (3) back to the 0 position.
