3.Attach the filter holder onto the machine, moving from left to right (fig 6).

IMPORTANT: Should the coffee holder for pods be used after one for ground coffee, it’s necessary to clear the ground coffee remained in the espresso boiler outlet. This cleaning operation is necessary in order to avoid water leackages from the coffee holder for pods while coffee is being proposed.

4.Proceed as in points 4, 5 and 6 in the previous section on how to prepare espresso.

5.To remove the pod, press the button on the filter holder and simply lift the pod out

6.To turn the coffee machine off, turn the selector knob on the appliance to the Off position “O” (fig.14).

If you use the “iIIycaffe” coffee pods, use the special filter holder. Insert the coffee pod ensuring the name “iIIy” is facing down and the long side of the pod is positioned as shown in figure.

HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO

1.Prepare espresso coffee, using cups that are large enough for cappuccinos (see “How to prepare espresso coffee).

2.Turn the selector knob to the position (fig. 16) Wait until the orange “OK” light comes on, to indicate that the boiler has reached the ideal temperature for producing steam.

3.In the meantime, fill a container with approximately 3 fl. oz of milk for each cappuccino to be prepared. The milk must be cold from the refrigerator (not warm!). In choosing the container, bear in mind that the volume of the milk will increase by 2 or 3 times. Semi skimmed milk gives best results.

NOTE: We suggest you used semi-skimmed milk at refrigerator temperature.

4.Position the container with the milk in it under the milk frother (fig. 17).

5.Immerse the cappuccino maker nozzle about 5mm deep into the milk and turn the steam knob in an anti-clockwise direction (fig. 18) (by turning the knob to a greater or lesser extent, it is possible to vary the

quantity of steam that comes out from the cappuccino maker). At this point, the milk will begin to increase in volume and to appear frothy.

6.When the volume of the milk has doubled, fully immerse the milk frother and continue heating the milk (Fig. 19). Once the desired temperature has

been reached (the ideal temperature is 60°C), stop the delivery of steam by turning the steam knob in a clockwise direction and at the same time positioning the selector knob at “O” (fig. 14).

7.Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the espresso coffee. Your cappuccino is now ready. Add sugar to taste and, if desired, sprinkle a little powdered chocolate on top of the froth.

Note: to prepare the coffee after having frothed the milk, first let the boiler cool down, otherwise the coffee will be burnt. To cool the boiler down, place a container underneath the outlet, turn the selector knob to the “espresso” position and allow the water to flow out until the ‘OK’ light goes off. Return the

selector knob to the position and then prepare the coffee as described in the previous paragraph.

IMPORTANT: always clean the milk frother and steam nozzle immediately after use. Proceed as follows:

1 By turning the steam knob (fig. 18), allow a little steam to come out for a few seconds. Then close firmly by turning clockwise.

2 Unscrew the milk frother by turning it clockwise (Fig. 20), and then clean it thoroughly in lukewarm water.

3 Check that the three holes in the milk frother, as shown in Fig. 21, are not blocked. If necessary, unblock them using a pin.

4.Clean the steam delivery tube, being careful to avoid being burnt.

5.Screw the milk frother back on.

PRODUCING HOT WATER

1.Turn on the coffee unit by turning the selector knob to

the position (fig. 5).

2.Position a container under the cappuccino maker;

3.When the ‘OK’ pilot light comes on, position the

selector knob at (fig. 8) and at the same time turn the steam knob in an anti-clockwise direction (fig. 19); hot water will come out from the cappuccino maker;

4.To stop the flow of hot water, turn the steam knob in a clockwise direction and position the selector knob at “O” (fig. 14).

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

1.Before performing cleaning or maintenance operations, turn the machine off, allow it to cool down and unplug it from the power outlet.

Warning: when cleaning, never immerse the machine

in water: it is an electrical appliance!
