EMPTYING THE DRIP TRAY

If required, empty the drip tray, before starting a extraction cycle.
IMPORTANT - When the appliance has been in operation just before, the water
in the drip tray may be hot. At least, when the red filling indicator comes up at
the cup tray, empty the drip tray to avoid overflow. Additionally, the content of the
drip tray may easily be spilled, when the drip tray is overfilled.
1. Grasp the drip tray at the front and pull it out carefully.
2. Remove the cup tray and the red filling indicator and empty the drip tray. If
required, rinse the drip tray with clear tap water. Then wipe dry the exterior of
the drip tray.
3. Replace the drip tray and ensure that the drip tray does not protrude the base
of the appliance. If required, slightly push the drip tray in.
4. Replace the filling indicator onto the post at the left side of the drip tray. The fil-
ling indicator must sliding completely down without resistance.
5. Replace the cup tray. The three wide holes in the cup tray must face to the left
rear side of the machine. Ensure that the cup tray is lying firmly on the drip tray.

FILLING THE BEAN HOPPER

If you wish to operate the grinder, ensure that a sufficient amount of fresh, whole
coffee beans is in the bean hopper. In total, 220g coffee beans may be filled into
the bean hopper.
Remove the bean hopper lid for filling. However, do not overfill the bean hopper.
bean The hopper lid must be closed correctly after filling. Otherwise, the flavour of
your coffee beans diminishes rapidly and your espresso gets weak and stale.

Preparing the Appliance for Operation

1. Ensure that the water tank is filled with a sufficient amount of cold water (250-
2500ml; filling level between MIN and MAX) and the water tank inserted cor-
rectly. Ensure that the drip tray is empty and correctly in place (see: 'Filling the
Water Tank' and 'Emptying the Drip Tray').
2. If you wish to operate the grinder, ensure that a sufficient amount of fresh, whole
coffee beans are in the bean hopper (see: 'Filling the Bean Hopper').
3. Connect the espresso machine to a sufficient power outlet (see: 'Important Safe-
guards for Electrical Appliances').
4. Ensure that the selection dial at the left side of the group head is in the verti-

cal standby position. Press the power button. The power button flashes and the
machine starts heating. Wait until all buttons illuminate. The required temperature
for performing extractions will be reached within approx. 1 minute.

INSERTING THE REQUIRED FILTER BASKET

The espresso machine comes with different filter baskets (see: 'Knowing Your New
Espresso Machine'). It is essential for achieving best results to select the appropriate
filter basket for the desired task (see: 'Properties of Your New Espresso Machine'
and 'Tips for Best Results').
IMPORTANT - The filter basket engages within the portafilter via a bulge at the
side wall. There are 3 notches at the rim of the portafilter, for removing the filter
basket from the portafilter. If required, insert a medium screw driver or the handle
of a teaspoon into a notch for levering out the filter basket.
CAUTION
– Do not use violence. When the filter basket is bent or dama-
ged in any other way, it cannot be installed at the group head without leakage
and must be replaced. Always use only one filter basket.
5. If required, remove the installed filter basket from the portafilter. You may use a
medium screw driver or the handle of a teaspoon for levering the filter basket
out of the portafilter.
6. Rinse the filter basket you removed and the portafilter. Remove any residues of
coffee powder and oils (see: 'Care and Cleaning').
7. Select the required filter basket (see: 'Properties of Your New Expresso Machine
/ Selecting the Filter Basket'): – 1 cup filter basket for approx. 30 ml Espresso
or mild coffee (Long Black). – 2 cups filter basket for approx. 60 ml Espresso or
strong coffee (Long Black). – POD filter basket for coffee pads.
8. Insert the selected filter basket into the portafilter and press the filter basket down
into the portafilter. There may be no gap between the rim of the portafilter and
the filter basket.
9. Pre-heat your cups and the portafilter and filter basket using the hot water func-
tion. This is a good way too, for flushing the water system of the machine before
extraction (see below: 'Pre-Heating').
