-Once the coffee has reached the required level in the cup, stop dispensing by moving the lever (7) back to the upright standby posi- tion (Fig. 7).

If the lever (7) is not moved back to the upright position after use, small amounts of water and steam may leak out from the coffee dispensing nozzles for as long as there is water in the boiler tank. This does not mean that the appliance is malfunctioning. To resolve this problem, it is sufficient to move the lever (7) to the upright standby position.

Successive use

-To dispense more coffee immediately after, proceed as follows:

-Unhook the filter holder from the body of the machine and clean out the coffee grounds from previous dispensing.

-Place the empty water measure under the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device (3) and release all residual steam inside the boiler by holding down the steam dispenser button (4) (Fig. 8). With the button pushed, it is possible to bring the measure forward into its fixed position, allowing you to take your finger off the steam dispenser button and simply wait for the remaining residual steam to dischar- ge.

-When the steam is all out, move the device (3) back to its initial position, pushing it back with the measure (Fig. 10).

-Unscrew the safety cap to refill the boiler tank and then follow the steps described here above.

WARNING: :The boiler tank cap is fitted with a safety valve which allows it to be unscrewed only if all residual steam has been completely released.

If the coffee has already been prepared:

-Place the container of milk to be foamed (or liquid to be heated) under the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device (3) and press the steam but- ton (4) to start the jet of steam (Fig. 11). While holding down the button, you can move the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device (3) forwards using the milk container until it is in the fixed position, allowing you to remove your finger from the steam button and to wait until the
