-
To release the filter cup, wait for a few seconds
then turn the handle from right to left.
-
To remove the used coffee, hold the filter in
place by means of the special lever built into
the handle, turn the filter cup upside down
and empty the coffee or tablet by knocking the
cup against a firm surface (fig. 10).
-
If the machine is not to be used for a long
time, turn it off and empty the water tank.
A pre-wash should be performed, as descri-
bed above, before using it the next time.
MAKING A GOOD CAPPUCCINO
-
Use a metal container, preferably tall with a
small diameter.
Only fill it 1/3 of the way up with milk to pre-
vent it from boiling over.
-
Turn the machine on by pressing the ON/OFF
switch.
-
Press the steam switch. After about 3 minutes
the "OK" light will come on, indicating that
the machine is at the ideal temperature for
steam production (fig. 11).
-
Important! At this stage, a few drops of water
may be emitted from the boiler outlet: this is
completely normal, but be careful not to scald
yourself.
-
Immerse the steam spout in the bottom of the
milk (fig. 12) and turn the steam knob anti-
clockwise. The amount of steam delivered by
the spout can be adjusted by turning the knob.
-
Lower the container so that the spout skims the
surface of the milk and then give short bursts
of steam at intervals, barely immersing the
spout (fig. 12).
-
If your coffee machine is equipped with a cap-
puccino nozzle, immerse the nozzle into the milk
down to the mark on the nozzle (fig. 13).
The first steam dispensed is mixed with
water, so to get drier steam, wait for a few
seconds with the steam adjustment knob
open.
-
Always unscrew and
rinse the cappuccino
nozzle immediately after
use in order to prevent
the milk from hardening
on the pipes. From time

to time, use a pin to clean the holes in the
cappuccino nozzle.
DISPENSING STEAM
(to make tea, stock, etc.)
The steam function is useful for heating liquids.
-
Switch the machine on by pressing the
ON/OFF switch.
-
Press the steam switch. After about few minu-
tes the "OK" light will come on, indicating that
the machine is at the ideal temperature for
steam production.
-
Immerse the steam spout in the bottom of the
milk and turn the steam knob anti-clockwise
the amount of steam delivered by the spout
can be adjusted by turning the knob.
When the liquid is hot, completely close the steam
knob and turn off the steam switch.
DISPENSING HOT WATER
(to make tea, stock, etc.)
-
Turn on the machine by pressing the ON/OFF
switch and wait for the "OK" light to come on.
-
Place a glass or cup under the steam spout.
-
Press the dispensing switch while opening the
steam lever.
-
Hot water will be dispensed from the spout.
When enough water has been delivered, close
the lever and turn off the dispensing switch
and "ON-OFF" switch.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF
THE FILTER
About every 300 coffees or when the coffee drips
out of the filter holder or not at all, clean the
ground coffee filter holder as follows:
• Remove the filter from the filter holder.
• Remove the filter cap (fig. 14) by unscrewing in
the direction indicated by the arrow on the cap.
• Remove the frother from the container by
pushing it from the cap end.
• Remove the gasket.
• Rinse all components and clean the metal filter tho-
roughly in hot water using a brush (fig. 15).
Make sure the holes in the metal filter are not
blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin (see fig. 16).
• Replace the filter and gasket on the plastic disk
as shown in fig. 17.
Make sure to insert the pin on the plastic disk
into the hole in the gasket indicated by the
arrow in fig. 17.
