• Avoid contact with the hot parts of the

appliance by the cord or your hands

(hotplate for cups, filter holder, steam

nozzle).

• Never immerse the appliance in water.

• Keep out of reach of children and do not

allow the cord to hang down.

• Follow the descaling instructions.

• Do not use the machine if it has been

damaged or if the cord is in poor condition.

• If the cord or any other specific element

becomes defective, these must be replaced

only by an approved Krups service centre.

You should never under any circumstances

open the appliance yourself.

• Check that the filter holder is firmly in place

before making coffee.

Espresso coffee

Espresso coffee is richer in aroma and stronger

than normal coffee. It is drunk from small

espresso cups. It is made by passing hot

water under pressure through the ground

coffee to obtain this delicious foamy black

coffee with its revitalising effect.

You can recognise espresso by its

characteristic aroma and its typical foamy

head. But this requires high pressure and an

excellent espresso coffee which has been well

roasted and correctly ground. If you cannot

buy ground espresso coffee, use a coffee

grinder to grind the beans.

The coffee must not be ground too fine.

It should be slightly granulous.

If it is too fine, you run the risk of blocking the

grid and water will no longer pass through

Setting-up the appliance

•Lift the lid and remove the water tank (1).

• Fill the water tank (2).

•Replace the water tank, pressing down

firmly so that the valve at the bottom opens.

Close the lid (3).

The transparent water tank enables you to

check the water level. Always top up the

water when necessary.

Before using your espresso

maker for the first time

Before using the appliance for the first time

and also after a long period of non-use,

prepare several cups of water (without any

coffee) to rinse the system through

completely:

• Place the filter in the filter holder.

• Engage the filter holder on the left facing

the external marking and turn it firmly to the

right (6).

• Place a large enough container under the

filter holder (7).

• Set the pump switch to position

(4).

• Turn on the appliance (5).

The operating indicator light (red) and the

thermostat indicator light (yellow) will both

come on.

A little water may leak from the percolation

head during the rise in temperature.

• Set the switch to the « » position (8).

The pump is then activated. If the boiler

(water-heating system) is empty (on first use,

for example), it will fill with water with a

characteristic filling noise. The water

contained in the boiler is evacuated via the

infusion nozzle.

• As soon as the water is running out of the

filter holder, reset the pump switch to

position

• Allow the appliance to finish heating the

water.

• Once the yellow light goes out, allow the

equivalent of 2 to 3 cups of water to run

through, setting the pump switch to the

« » position.

• If necessary interrupt the process by setting

the pump switch back to

position in order

to empty the container.
