5 THE COFFEE GRINDER (FIG.10)

Caution! Only turn the grinding control

knob, found inside the coffee bean

container (Fig.10), when the coffee grinder

is working. Do not insert ground and/or

instant coffee in the coffee bean container.

Do not insert anything other than coffee

beans in the container. The coffee grinder

contains dangerous moving parts; keep

fingers and/or other objects away. Before

carrying out any operations in the coffee

bean container, switch OFF the ON/OFF

switch (7) and remove the plug from the

wall outlet. Do not insert coffee beans when

the coffee grinder is working.

The quality and the taste of your coffee depend,

in addition to the used blend, also on the

grinding coarseness.

The appliance comes with a grinding adjusting

knob (Fig.10). To use this feature, turn the

graduated knob when the coffee grinder is

working; the numbers displayed on the knob

indicate the grinding coarseness.

The manufacturer sets the knob to an average

grinding coarseness in the factory: if the ground

coffee is too fine, turn the knob toward the higher

values; if the ground coffee is too coarse, turn

the knob toward the lower values.

You will note the change only after pouring

three /four coffees.

Use coffee beans for espresso coffee makers.

Avoid using limit grinding positions (e.g. 1 and

16); if this is necessary, try using different coffee

blends.

Store the coffee in a cool and dry place, in an

airtight container.

You should change the grinding position if the

coffee does not outflow optimally, specifically:

Too fast = grinding too coarse > grind coffee

finer;

Too slow (drips and/or no flow) = grinding too

fine > grind coffee coarser.

6 ADJUSTING THE COFFEE

DOSE (FIG.11)

You may select the quantity of coffee (dose) that

you wish to grind. The manufacturer sets an

average dose in the factory.

To change the ground coffee dose, simply turn

the knob (Fig.11) found inside the coffee

container. Turn it anticlockwise to increase the

dose and clockwise to decrease the dose.

You must adjust the dose before pressing the

coffee dispenser button.

This system allows you to obtain an optimal cup

of coffee with all types of marketed coffee.

7 THE COFFEE DISPENSER

Note: If the appliance does not di-

spense coffee, check the water level

in the tank.

• Before making coffee, make sure that the

green temperature-ready LEDs (23) and

(24) are lit and emit a fixed light and that

the water tank and the coffee container are

full.

• Place 1 or 2 coffee cups under the coffee

dispenser spouts; you can adjust the

height of the dispenser by moving it up or

down manually (Fig.12) until it suits your

cups.

7.1 Making coffee with coffee beans

• To dispense the coffee, press the correct

coffee button (23) or (24). The selected

button starts flashing (see chap.15), while the

other switches off.

To make 1 coffee, position a single coffee

cup under the coffee dispenser spouts and

press the button (23) or (24) only once; to

make 2 coffees, position two coffee cups

under the spouts and press the button (23)

or (24) twice.

In this operating mode, the appliance

automatically grinds and doses the right

quantity of coffee; making two coffees

requires two grinding and dispensing cycles,

which are automatically managed by the

machine.

• Then, the dispensing cycle starts.

• After carrying out the prebrewing cycle, coffee

will start to come out of the spout (Fig.01,

pos.13).

The coffee will stop flowing automatically when

the preset level is reached (see par.7.3). You

can interrupt the flow of coffee by pressing

the button (Fig.01, pos.23 or 24).

7.2 Making coffee with ground coffee

In this operating mode, you must use

the supplied measuring spoon

(Fig.01, pos.21) to dose the ground coffee.

Only use ground coffee suitable for

espresso coffee makers in the doser

(5); placing coffee beans, instant coffee and

other materials inside the doser causes

damage to the appliance.

Keep fingers away from the ground

coffee doser since there are moving

parts.

Use the supplied measuring spoon (21) to

measure the right quantity of ground coffee to

place in the doser.

Use only one filled measuring spoon at a time;

to make two coffees, you must go through the

entire process twice.

• Press the button (22) to select the function;

the LED lights up.

• Lift the cover of the ground coffee doser

(Fig.13).

• Fill the measuring spoon with one coffee dose;

discard any excess quantity of ground coffee.

• Fill the doser with the ground coffee (Fig.14)

•Close the cover of the ground coffee

doser.

• To make the coffee, press the desired coffee

button (23) or (24); the selected button starts

flashing (see chapter 15), while the other

switches off.

• The dispensing cycle begins.

• After carrying out the prebrewing cycle, coffee

will start to come out of the spout (13).

• The coffee will stop flowing automatically when

the preset level is reached (see par. 7.3).

You can interrupt the flow of coffee by pressing

the button (23) or (24).

• Then the machine automatically returns to the

normal operating mode (see para. 7.1).

7.3 Adjusting the quantity of coffee per

cup

Your coffee maker has been programmed to

make 2 types of coffee: espresso coffee with the

button (23) and weak coffee with the button (24).

To adjust the programmed values to the size of

your cups, place the cup under the coffee

dispenser (13), press the button of the desired

type of coffee (23) or (24) and keep it pressed.

Wait for the machine to fill the cup up to the

desired level and, then, release the button.

Note: keep the button (23) or (24)

pressed during the entire coffee

dispensing process.

In this way, the appliance is programmed to

supply the quantity of coffee you selected.

8 MAKING HOT WATER

Caution: splashing may occur at the

start – scalding hazard! The hot water

nozzle and pipe can reach high temperatures:

avoid touching directly with your hands.

• Before dispensing hot water, make sure that

the green temperature-ready LEDs (23 and

24) emit a fixed light.

Proceed as follows when the appliance is ready

to dispense hot water:

• Place a cup and/or pitcher under the steam/

hot water nozzle (Fig.15).

• Turn the knob anticlockwise as shown in Fig.15.

• When you have obtained the desired quantity

of hot water, turn the knob clockwise to shut

off the flow. The appliance resets itself so that

it is ready for normal operation.

9 MAKING STEAM / PREPARING

CAPPUCCINO

Steam can be used to froth the milk

for cappuccinos but also to heat

beverages.
