4 INSTALLING THE ESPRESSO
MAKER
For your safety and the safety of third
parties, follow the "Safety Standards" (see
chapter 3).
4.1 Packaging
The original packaging was designed and made
to protect the appliance during shipment.
We recommend you keep it for future needs.
4.2 Getting Started
• Remove the espresso maker from the
packaging and position it in a suitable
location that meets the requirements specified
and described in the safety standards
(chap.3).
• Make sure that the drip tray (Fig.01, pos. 13),
the coffee grounds drawer (11) and the coffee
dispenser (18) are fitted correctly and that the
front cover (16) is closed.
• Keep the cleaning brush (21) and the key of
the coffee dispenser (20) handy, which were
supplied with the appliance.
If the red light (30) is still on when the
machine is started, it means that one
of the parts described above is
positioned incorrectly. Review each
piece to ensure all parts are securely in
place.
Caution: You must read chapter 14.
This chapter explains in detail the
meaning of all the visual signals displayed
to the user through the lights found on the
control panel.
4.3 Preparing the Italia for use
• Open the water tank cover and remove the
tank (Fig.02) using the built-in handle. Rinse
and fill the tank with fresh, cold water (Fig.03);
we recommend that you do not exceed the
"MAX" level mark. Replace the water tank in
its housing (Fig.04) and reposition the cover
on its original position.

Always fill the tank (10) with fresh,
cold water. Hot water and other
liquids can damage the tank and/or the
appliance. Do not operate the appliance
without water: make sure that there is
enough water inside the tank.
• Lift the coffee bean container cover (Fig.05).
• Pour whole bean coffee in the container
(Fig.06).
Use whole bean coffee only. Ground
and instant coffee, as well as other
items, cause damage to the appliance.
• Close the container cover.
• Insert the plug into a suitable wall outlet after
making sure that the ON/OFF switch (8) is in
the OFF position.
• When not in use, keep the ON/OFF switch of
the appliance in the OFF position. To switch
ON the espresso maker, simply press the
switch (Fig.07) located on the back of the
machine. The brew buttons (24) & (25) start
flashing on the control panel.
4.4 Priming the Pump
• To prime the pump, direct the steam wand
(Fig.01, item 15) towards the drip tray or place
a cup under the steam wand.
• Turn the knob counter clockwise (Fig.08). Wait
for water to flow regularly from the steam
wand. Shut off the flow by turning the steam
knob clockwise.
Note: You must prime the pump of
the espresso maker if the machine is
switched ON for the first time, the machine
has not been used for a long time, the water
tank has been emptied completely or the
warning light (28) flashes.
• After switching ON the espresso maker, the
espresso shot & long shot buttons flash
simultaneously during the heating phase.
Once the heating phase is finished, they will
emit a fixed light.
This takes about 2 minutes.
• The Italia is ready for use.
