1. Place the ground coffee filter (C2 or C3) in the filter holder
(fig. 6). To make one coffee, use the filter with the
symbol on the bottom, to make two coffees, use the filter

2. To make just one coffee, place one level measure of pre-
ground coffee (about 7 g) in the filter (fig. 7). To make two
coffees, place two loosely filled measures (about 7+7 g) of
pre-ground coffee in the filter. Fill the filter a little at a time
to prevent the pre-ground coffee from overflowing.
Important:
For correct operation, before filling with pre-ground coffee,
make sure there are no coffee residues left in the filter from the
last time you made coffee.
3. Distribute the pre-ground coffee evenly and press lightly
with the presser (fig. 8).
Correct pressing of the pre-ground coffee is essential to
obtain a good espresso. If you press too firmly, the coffee
will be delivered slowly and will be strong. If you press
too lightly, the coffee will be delivered quickly and will be
weak.
4. Remove any excess coffee from the rim of the filter holder
and attach the filter holder to the appliance. To attach cor-
rectly, align the filter holder handle with the INSERT sym-
bol (fig. 9), attach the filter holder and rotate the handle
towards the right until aligned with the CLOSE symbol.
5. Place the cup or cups under the filter holder spouts (fig.
10).
6. Make sure the lights corresponding to the coffee buttons
are on, then press the
appliance proceeds to make the coffee and delivery is in-
terrupted automatically.
7. To remove the filter holder, turn the handle from right to
left.
Danger of burns!
To avoid splashes, never remove the filter holder while the
appliance is delivering coffee. Always wait for a few seconds
after delivery.
