PREPARATION

FIRST TIME OF USE

The coffee machine must be fully rinsed through with water before the first use.

1.Follow the instructions as if making an espresso, pages 18 to 21, but leave the filter holder (7) empty, i.e. no filter (17), (18) or (19) and no ground coffee.

Empty the whole water tank (11) through the machine; this will rinse the internals ready for brewing coffee.

2.Refill the tank and steam as per instructions on page 22 for 15 seconds then dispense hot water as on page 21 for 15 seconds.

3.Before they are used the filter holder, measuring spoon, filters, water tank and froth nozzle (16) must be washed with detergent and lukewarm water, then rinsed and dried.

NOTE: The control knob (5) may be a harder to turn when the machine is new. This will loosen with use.

BEFORE EACH USE

IMPORTANT: ALWAYS ENSURE THE WATER TANK CONTAINS SUFFICIENT WATER WHEN THE COFFEE MACHINE IS BEING USED. IF YOU TURN THE MACHINE ON WHEN THE TANK IS EMPTY YOU MAY DAMAGE THE PUMP.

Before each use the coffee machine needs to be primed ready for brewing.

1.Make sure the machine is unplugged.

2.Fill the water tank by either opening the lid and pouring water directly into the tank using a jug or bottle, or by removing the tank and filling it at the sink. To do this, hold the sides of the water tank and lift it straight up. When replacing the water tank, hook it over the lugs and make sure it has engaged properly in the valve at the base.

Ideally you should use bottled or filtered water. This will reduce the build up of limescale inside the machine and produce a better tasting espresso.
