In order to release all the aromas of the coffee and ensure your complete satisfaction, this machine pre-
infuses each coffee. The pump works for 3 seconds, stops the following 3 seconds and then the cycle
continues until the end of the preparation.
PREHEATING THE ACCESSORIES
For the best results, we recommend that you preheat the accessories (filter holder and cups) without
espresso ground coffee. To do so:
n Fill the water tank and turn the machine on. (fig.1, 2, 3 and 4).
n Put the filter holder in place, place the cups below.
As soon as the appliance reaches the required temperature, the "on/off" light stops flashing and the "1
cup" and "2 cups" buttons light up.
n Then press the "1 cup" or "2 cups" button (fig. 8 or 9).
n Once the cup or cups are filled with hot water, remove them.
n Unlock the filter holder: press "OPEN" while turning the filter holder to the left and remove it from the
machine. (fig.10).
WITH GROUND COFFEE
The type of coffee you choose will determine the strength and taste of your espresso. Always
use espresso ground coffee. Do not use instant coffee, cafetiere coffee or filter coffee.
n Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4). During the preheating of the appliance,
the light flashes.
n Using the measuring spoon, place the espresso ground coffee in the filter holder: one spoon (full to the
brim) per cup (fig.5).
n Remove any excess espresso ground coffee from the edge of the filter.
Important: Do not tamp the coffee down in the filter holder. The coffee is automatically
tamped using the KTS “Krups Tamping System”.
n Insert the filter holder in the device by turning it to the right as far as it will go, up to the stop
(fig.7).
n Put one or two cups under the filter holder.
As soon as the appliance reaches the required temperature, the "on/off" light stops flashing and the "1
cup" and "2 cups" buttons light up.
n Then press the "1 cup" or "2 cups" button (fig. 8 or 9).
n Once the cup or cups are filled, unlock the filter holder press “OPEN” while turning the filter holder to
the left and remove it from the machine (fig. 10).
n Remove the used espresso coffee grounds using the ejection system by pressing the "EJECT" button
located between the two coffee outlet nozzles (fig.11). Wash the filter under running water, pressing
"EJECT" to eliminate the remnants of grounds.
The filter holder can now be filled again to prepare other espressos.
NB: It is always possible to stop the coffee flowing by pressing the "1 cup" or "2 cups" button again.
IMPORTANT: If you want a strong or light espresso, vary the amount of coffee or water (a full
spoon for a strong espresso and a less full spoon for a light espresso). But in both cases, be
sure to tighten your filter holder as much as possible.
