First use

Filling the water tank
Remove the watertank by pulling it out
(towards the front).
Fill the tank with fresh clean water taking
care not to exceed the MAX level. Refit the
tank.
Never use the appliance without water
in the tank and always remember to fill
up when the level drops to a couple of
centimetres from the bottom.
Preheating the coffee unit
To obtain espresso coffee at the right
temperature, the coffee machine must be
preheated. Press the ON/Off button at
least 30 minutes before making the coffee,
making sure the filter holder is attached to
the appliance without adding ground coffee
(check that the steam knob is closed).
To attach the filter holder, position it under
the boiler outlet with the handle towards the
left, push it upwards and at the same time
rotate the handle firmly towards the right.
Wait for half an hour, then make the coffee
as described in the following section.
Alternatively, you can preheat more rapidly
by proceeding as follows:
Turn the appliance on by pressing the ON/
OFF button and attach the filter holder
to the appliance without adding ground
coffee.
Place a cup under the filter holder. Use the
same cup as will be used to prepare the
coffee in order to preheat it.
Wait for the ok indicator light to come on,
then immediately press the coffee knob.
Run the water off until the OK indicator light
goes out, then interrupt delivery by pressing
the coffee button again.
Empty the cup. Wait until the OK indicator
light comes on again then repeat the same
operation. (It is normal for a small and
harmless puff of steam to be given off when
removing the filter holder).
