PRE-HEATING

WARNING
sed. Even after operation, some hot water or steam may escape. Only touch the
steam wand at its handle. Do not hold your hands on or under the steam wand,
during operation and thereafter. Only use heat-resistant cups and mugs that will
not crack or melt.
When pre-heating your cups and mugs, the optimum temperature of your coffee will
be kept. After pre-heating, your cups can be kept warm on the warming plate on
top of the appliance. The extraction temperature decreases significantly, when the
extraction just starts, while the portafilter and filter basket are still cold. This can affect
the quality of your coffee unfavourably. Thus, you should warm up the portafilter and
filter basket before filling in coffee powder.
For pre-heating, rinse cups and portafilter with hot water given off via the hot water
function (see: 'Hot Water'). Hold the portafilter over the drip tray for pre-heating.
1. Prepare the appliance and portafilter for operation (see: 'Preparing the Appli-
ance for Operation' and 'Inserting the Required Filter Basket'). Ensure that the
water tank is filled with a sufficient amount of water (250-2500ml; filling level
between MIN and MAX).
2. Point the steam wand into your cup or the filter basket (in the portafilter). Turn the
selection dial clockwise (to the water icon) for starting the hot water function.
3. Wait, until some hot water is given off. Then turn the selection dial back to the
standby position for stopping the hot water function.
4. Repeat step 2 and 3 with the other parts (cups or portafilter) you wish to pre-
heat.
5. Place your cups onto the warming plate on top of the appliance to keep them
warm.
6. Thoroughly, wipe the portafilter and filter basket dry. Thereafter, fill the filter bas-
ket (see below: 'Using the Grinder' or 'Filling in Coffee Powder Manually').
IMPORTANT - Ensure that the filter basket and portafilter are completely dry,
before filling in coffee powder. With moisture in the filter basket, the water may
flow at the rim of the filter basket missing the coffee powder. When using pre-
ground coffee powder, fill the coffee powder directly into the filter basket. Do not
fill ground coffee powder into the bean hopper!
