Filling the water tank during use

No special operation is necessary when the water in the tank runs out as the machine is
equipped with a special self-priming device. Just unplug the machine, pull out the tank and
fill it with fresh cool water again.
To make cappuccino, hot chocolate or heat any beverage, move the steam function switch
(M) to the steam position (
on, which indicates that the heating unit has reached the right temperature to produce steam.
When warming up, your appliance may release small puffs of steam from the filter
holder; this is perfectly normal.
Turn the steam dispensing knob (K), having the foresight to position a cup underneath the
cappuccino maker (G): at first a little water will come out, immediately followed by a strong
jet of steam.
Close the steam dispensing knob (K) to stop the jet of steam and put the pot of milk to be
whipped under the cappuccino maker (Fig. 10). Plunge the wand all the way into the pot of
milk and again open the steam dispensing knob (K) until you get the result you want. During
these operations you may notice that the boiler temperature indicator lamp (L) 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 opportune you start dispensing the steam only when the lamp is on. Dispense
the steam for a few seconds after every use in order to free the hole of any milk
residue.
Close the steam dispensing knob (K). After the cappuccino is prepared, move the steam func-

function switch (M) in the high position to cool down the boiler, wait for the boiler temperature
indicator lamp (L) to turn off and then turn on again. To cool the heating unit more quickly,
proceed as follows: after having placed a container underneath the cappuccino maker (G),
put the coffee brewing switch (O) in position (
will cause water to flow out, until the boiler temperature indicator lamp (L) turns back off.
Now close the steam dispensing knob (K) and put the coffee brewing switch (O) in the high
position. Wait until the boiler temperature indicator lamp (L) turns back on. The coffee maker
is now ready to brew coffee again.

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.
