12.1 Preparing Espresso / Coffee (Using Whole Coffee Beans) Note: When using the machine for the first time, 4 to 5 cups of espresso / coffee needs to be made before the machine delivers satisfying results.

1.Fill the water tank with water and the coffee bean container with coffee beans, according to the directions listed in sections 11.1 and 11.3 of the manual.

2.Place one empty cup under the spout to make one espresso / coffee (Figure 11) or two empty cups for two espressos / coffees (Figure 12).

Tip: Use cups that have been previously heated by rinsing them with hot water or by leaving them on the cup warmer for at least 20 minutes.

Note: For more tips on making coffee hotter, see “Tips on Making Hotter Coffee” section of the manual.

3. Make sure to lower the adjustable coffee spout if the cups are small (Figure 13). For larger cups, push the adjustable coffee spout up to accommodate the size.

4.Press the button (Figure 14) to make one cup of espresso / coffee or the button (Figure 15) to make two espressos / coffees.

5.The machine will now grind the beans, run a short pre-brewing cycle, pause and then complete the delivery.

Note: While the machine is preparing the espresso / coffee, the delivery can be

terminated at any time by pressing the button (Figure 14) or the button (Figure 15), as previously selected.

6.Once the desired quantity is reached, the machine will automatically terminate espresso / coffee delivery and discharge the grounds into the used coffee container. Note: There is no need to empty the used coffee container until the used coffee container warning light illuminates. (For more details on this light, please refer to the Troubleshooting section of the manual).

Note: As soon as delivery is complete, to increase the quantity of the coffee

simply press and hold the button (Figure 14) or the button (Figure 15), as previously selected, until reaching the desired quantity. This operation must be performed within 3 seconds of the last espresso / coffee delivery.

Caution: While the machine is delivering espresso / coffee, never remove the water tank. If it is removed, the machine will not be able to make espresso / coffee and will become noisy.

7.After a few seconds, when both the green and indicator lights are on again steadily, another espresso / coffee can be made.

8. To switch the machine off, press the button. Note: Before switching off, the machine will automatically run a rinse cycle. A little hot water will release from the coffee spout and collect in the removable drip tray.
