8 Preparing espresso coffee using ground coffee

(instead of beans)

• Press the (fig. 14) button to select the ground coffee function. This disables the coffee mill

function.

The appliance displays

READY PRE-GROUND

• Extract the appliance by pulling it using the special handles (fig. 3).

• Lift the central lid, place one level measure of ground coffee in the funnel (see fig. 15). Close the lid,

push the appliance to replace it and proceed as described in chapter 5. Note: You can make just one

coffee at a time by pressing the , or button once only.

NOTE 1: Never add the ground coffee when the appliance is off to avoid it being dispersed inside the

appliance.

NOTE 2: Never add more than one level measured scoop, otherwise either the appliance

will not make the coffee, the ground coffee will be lost inside the appliance, dirtying it, or

the coffee will run off in drips and the message "GROUND TOO FINE ADJUST GRINDER

AND PRESS OK" will be displayed. A little water comes out from the steam spout.

NOTE 3: When dosing the quantity of coffee to be added, use the measure supplied only.

NOTE 4: Use ground coffee for espresso coffee makers only. Do not use coffee beans, freeze-dried

coffee or other materials that could damage the appliance.

NOTE 5: If the funnel blocks due to moisture inside the appliance or if more than one measuring scoop of

pre-ground coffee has been used, use a knife to push the coffee down (Fig. 16), then remove and clean the

infuser and appliance as described in chapter 11.2 "Cleaning the infuser".

• Once the coffee has been delivered, to go back to making coffee using beans, deactivate the ground

coffee function by pressing the button again (the light goes off and the coffee mill is enabled for

operation again).
