NOTE 3: Tips to make hotter coffee:

When you turn the appliance on, if you want to make a short coffee (less than 2 oz), use the hot rinse-through water to preheat the cups.

If 2-3 minutes have passed , since you last made coffee, before making coffee again you must preheat

the infuser by pressing the button (fig. 13).

Run off the water into the underlying drip tray or alternatively use this water to fill (and then empty) the cup to be used for the coffee, so as to preheat it.

Unless preheated, do not use cups that are too thick, as they will absorb too much heat.

Use cups that have been preheated by rinsing them with hot water or by leaving them for at least 20 min- utes on the cup warmer tray on top of the appliance with the appliance on.

NOTE 4: While the appliance is making the coffee, delivery can be stopped at any time by pressing the

,

or

button as previously selected.

NOTE 5: As soon as delivery is complete, to increase the quantity of coffee, simply press and hold the

, or button as previously selected, until the desired quantity is reached (this operation must be performed within 3 seconds from when coffee delivery from the spouts ceases).

NOTE 6: When the appliance displays:

FILL TANK

the water tank must be refilled or the appliance will not make coffee.

(It is normal for there to be a little water left in the tank when the message is displayed).

NOTE 7: The appliance counts the number of coffees made. Every 14 single coffees (or 7 doubles) the appli- ance displays:

EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER

indicating that the grounds container is full and must be emptied and cleaned. Until the grounds container has been cleaned, the appliance continues to display the message and cannot make coffee.

To clean, open the service door at the front by pulling the coffee spout (fig. 14), remove the drip tray (fig. 15), empty and clean.

Empty the grounds container and clean thoroughly, making sure all residue deposited on the bottom is removed.

IMPORTANT: When removing the drip tray, the grounds container MUST be emptied, even if it is not com- pletely full. If this is not done, when making your next coffee, the grounds in the container may exceed the maximum level and block the appliance.

NOTE 8: while the appliance is delivering coffee, never remove the water tank. If it is removed, it will not be possible to make the coffee and the appliance will display:

GROUND TOO FINE ADJUST MILL AND

INSERT WATER SPOUT AND PRESS OK

To turn the appliance on again, you must insert the water spout (fig. 4), press the OK button and run off water from the spout for a few seconds.

When using the appliance for the first time, 4-5 cups of coffee need to be made before the appliance starts to give satisfying results.
