HOW TO PREPARE ESPRESSO COFFEE USING PODS (FOR APPLIANCES WITH TWO FILTERS ONLY)

1.Preheat the appliance as described in the section "PREHEATING THE COFFEE UNIT", making sure the filter holder is attached.

NOTE: use pods conforming to the ESE standard, indicated on the pack by the following symbol:

The ESE standard is a system accepted by leading pod producers and enables espresso coffee to be prepared simply and cleanly.

2.Place the small 1 coffee or pod filter in the filter holder, making sure the projection is correctly inserted in the slot as shown in fig. 12.

3.Insert a pod, centering it as far as possible on the filter (fig. 15).Always follow the instructions on the pod pack to position the pod on the filter correctly.

4.Attach the filter holder to the appliance. Always rotate as far as it will go (fig. 6).

5.Proceed as in points 5, 6 and 7 in the previous paragraph.

HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO COFFEE

1.Prepare the espresso coffees as described in the previous paragraphs, using sufficiently large cups.

2.Rotate the selector knob to the position (fig. 16) and wait until the OK light comes on (fig. 7). This indicates that the boiler has reached the ideal temperature for steam production.

3.In the meantime, fill a container with about 31/2 ounces of milk for each cappuccino to be prepared. The milk must be at refrigerator temperature (not hot!). In choosing the size of the container, bear in

mind that the milk doubles or triples in volume.

Note: You are recommended to use skim milk at refrigerator temperature.

4.Place the container with milk under the Jet Frother (fig. 17).

5.Immerse the Jet Frother in the milk about 1/4 of an inch and rotate the steam knob counter-clockwise (fig. 18) (rotating the knob more or less varies the quantity of steam discharged by the Jet Frother). The milk now starts to increase in volume and take on a creamy appearance.

6.When the milk has doubled in volume, immerse the Jet Frother deeply and continue heating the milk (fig. 19). When the required temperature is reached (the ideal is 60°C - 140°F), interrupt steam delivery by rotating the steam knob clockwise and placing the selector in the "O" position (fig. 14).

7.Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the espresso coffee prepared previously.

The cappuccino is ready. Sweeten to taste and if

desired, sprinkle the froth with a little cocoa powder. Note: to make coffee again after the milk has been frothed, cool down the boiler first or the coffee will burn. To cool, place a container under the boiler outlet, turn the selector to the "coffee" position and run off the water until the OK light goes out. Turn the

selector back to the CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF THE FILTERposition and make the coffee as described above.

IMPORTANT: always clean the Jet Frother after use. Proceed as follows:

1.Discharge a little steam for a few seconds by rotating the steam knob (fig. 18).

2.Wait several minutes for the steam tube to cool down. Unscrew the cappuccino maker by rotating clockwise (fig. 20) and wash thoroughly with warm water.

3.Make sure the three holes in the cappuccino maker shown in fig. 21 are not blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin.

4.Clean the steam tube, taking care to avoid burns.

5.Screw the cappuccino maker back in place.

HOT WATER PRODUCTION

1.Turn the appliance on by rotating the selector knob to

the Manual backgroundposition (fig. 5).

2.Place a container under the cappuccino maker.

3.When the OK indicator light comes on, turn the

selector knob to the Manual backgroundManual background position (fig. 8) and at the same time, rotate the steam knob counter -clockwise (fig. 18). Hot water is delivered from the Jet Frother.

4.To interrupt delivery of hot water, rotate the steam knob clockwise and position the selector knob to "O" (fig. 14).

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE OF THE FILTER

About every 300 coffees or when the coffee drips out of the filter holder or not at all, clean the ground coffee filter holder as follows:

Remove the filter from the filter holder.

Remove the filter cap (fig. 22) by unscrewing in the direction indicated by the arrow on the cap.

Remove the frother from the container by pushing it from the cap end.

Remove the gasket (fig. 25).

Rinse all components and clean the metal filter thoroughly in hot water using a brush (fig. 23). Make sure the holes in the metal filter are not blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin (see fig. 24).
