REUTILIZATION FOR COFFEE
To switch from steam to coffee, you must let the appliance cool down: press the coffee brewing button (6) and let
at least one cupful of water out of the filter holder attachment. Wait for the temperature light (2) to go off again,
before brewing coffee.
USEFUL TIPS FOR OBTAINING A GOOD
ITALIAN ESPRESSO
The ground coffee in the filter holder has to be pressed lightly. Whether the coffee is stronger or weaker depends
on the degree the coffee is ground, the quantity put into the filter holder and the pressing. Just a few seconds
are needed for the coffee to flow down into the cups. If the dispensing time is longer, this means that the coffee
is ground too fine or that the coffee put into the filter holder has been pressed too much.

REGULAR CLEANING

CAUTION: all cleaning operations described below must be performed with the machine turned off.
Cleaning the filter containing the grounds. Check that the internal holes are not clogged and if so, clean them
with a small brush. Check that the hole underneath is not clogged and if so, clean it with a pin (Fig. 13) and let
boiling water run through the filter holder, by placing the filter in position without any coffee or impurity. We sug-
gest you clean the filter (U) carefully every 3 months.
Cleaning the filter holder seat. With time, coffee residues may accumulate on the filter holder seat; these may
be removed with a toothpick, a sponge, or by letting water run through without fitting the filter holder.
Cleaning the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device. Perform this operation when the chrome-plated pipe is cold so as to
prevent burns. Unscrew the device (O) from the small pipe and wash it with running water. The small pipe can be
cleaned with a non-abrasive cloth. Screw the cappuccino maker back on as far as it will go. If necessary, clean
the small steam outlet hole again with a pin. After use, always let the steam nozzle run for a few seconds so to
free the outlet from any possible residue.
Cleaning the tank. Periodically clean the inside of the tank with a sponge or damp cloth.
DECALCIFICATION
Our experience and the special design of your appliance are such that no limescale or calcium compound will
form. However, should your coffee machine fail to work properly as a result of the frequent use of hard, high-
calcium, water, you may perform a decalcification process to restore its operational efficiency. For this purpose
you must use exclusively citric acid-based decalcifying products. This product may be easily ordered through the
customer service address provided. Should you need to decalcify your appliance, please follow the instructions
which come with the decalcifying product.
