USER INSTRUCTIONS
Starting the machine:

3. Remove the water tank cover on the back of the machine and take out the water tank (1) paying attention
not to damage the water tubes inside it.
4. Fill the tank (1) with cold water.
5. Replace the water tank back in the machine and check that the water tubes are not bent and that the filter
is well set on one of them.
6. Plug in the machine in the mains. Make sure that the wall socket is of the right voltage.

Grinding adjustment:
13. As a reference for the grinding degree, a grinding degree scale (20) has been placed on the coffee beans
container (19): "7.6.5.4.3.2.1"
14. By taking as a point of reference the tally mark in the machine frame and by turning grinding regulation
knob (23), the grinding degree scale will turn accordingly.
15. Choose higher degrees to get coarse-ground coffee, or smaller degrees to get fine-ground coffee.
16. A correct grinding degree (taking into consideration the various coffee blends) is essential to get a good
cup of coffee. We suggest degree 3 to get a medium grinding.
