with professional coffee machines, do not remove the filter ring
when the supply switch is turned on; after having made the coffee
gradually loosen the filter ring by turning it in a clockwise direction
in order to reduce the internal pressure. The minimum serving of
coffee is 50 ml.
No special operation is necessary when the water in the tank runs

How to make cappuccino

To prepare cappuccino, hot chocolate, or to heat other kinds of
drink, press the right-hand side switch (S); the indicator light (T)
will come on. When it, goes out, the machine is ready to produce
steam. CAUTION: if small puffs of steam come out of
the filter holder while you are waiting for the steam, this
phenomenon is to be considered absolutely normal. At this
point, place a cup or glass under the MAXI CAPPUCCINO attach-
ment (D) and turn the steam supply knob (N) in an anti-clockwise
direction (Fig. 5): at first a little water will come out immediately
followed by a strong jet of steam. Turn knob (N) in a clockwise
direction and place the jug of milk to be frothed under the MAXI
CAPPUCCINO attachment. Next immerse the nozzle in the jug of
milk and turn the steam supply knob (N) anti-clockwise once again
until the desired volume of froth is achieved. During these opera-
tions you may notice that the warning light (T) goes on and off from
time to time, indicating that the boiler thermostat is keeping the
water required for the steam supply at the right temperature. It is
recommended that the steam supply knob is only used when this
light goes out.

Making further cups of coffee

Allow the boiler to cool by switching off switch (S). If you want the
boiler to cool down quicker, press switch (Q), at the same time
keeping the tap (N) open, allowing water to come out of the MAXI
CAPPUCCINO attachment until the indicator light (T) comes on
again; then close the tap (N) and switch off switch (Q), wait until
the indicator light (T) goes out before making another coffee.
