Brewing coffee
Check if there is cold water in the tank. If there is
●
no or little water, fill up the tank
(1)
(2)
(3)
(4)
(5)
with cold water and turn the appliance on
(6)
.
Using the measure provided, put finely ground
●
coffee in the filter
(16)
.
Using the other end (the flat end) of the
●
measure, press the coffee down lightly
(17)
making a 90 degree turn, to fill the bottom. It
tightens the tamped coffee.
Remove any excess coffee so it is level with
●
the rim of the filter
(18)
.
Important
: Ensure there is not too much coffee
in the filter.
Tip:
Doses of coffee and the degree to which
coffee is tamped should be the same each time.
The pouring time of brewed coffee depends on
the coarseness of ground coffee. The finer the
coffee, the lower the pouring speed.
Tip
: Check that the flat end of the measure is
dry when tamping coffee. If it is damp, coffee
particles may stick together.
Warning:
Too finely ground coffee
may block
the holes of the filter and stop the coffee flow.
Place the filter holder in the brew head and
●
turn it all the way to the right
(19) (20)
.
Place cups under the pouring outlets of the
●
holder
(21)
.
Warning
: Check that the espresso machine is
ready to use. Remember that if an inscription
saying
„READY
does not show on the display,
it means that the espresso machine is not in
the ready to use mode yet.
To resume the coffee pouring process, turn the
●
regulator mode anticlockwise to the espress
o
position. To stop the process, turn the knob
back to position
0
(22)
.
Tip:
Perfectly brewed coffee is dark, caramel
with reddish highlights. It largely depends on
the quality of coffee used. Always serve freshly
brewed, hot coffee.
After brewing
Turn the filter holder to the left and remove it
●
from the brew head
(23)
.
Empty the used coffee from the filter
●
(24)
.
Tip
: After each use of the espresso machine,
we recommend that the brew head is rinsed
with a little water. This will wash off the used
coffee which has stuck to the bottom part of
the brew head. To do this, simply turn the knob
to the espresso
position and allow a free
flow of water.
Standby mode
After one hour break in using the espresso
machine, it will automatically be switched to the
standby mode. The heating system of the espresso
machine will be switched off and an inscription
saying
“STANDBY”
will show on the display.
After the next 26 hour break in using the espresso
machine, it will switch off automatically. To return
to the normal operating mode, press any button or
turn the knob.

again – position .
29. Hold the frothing jug at an angle so that the
steam wand sits in the “spout” and immerse
the wand just below the surface of milk.
30. Lift the jug so the steam wand is in the middle
of the milk.
31. Stop the steam by turning the knob to position

32. Take off the frothing attachment, wash it in
warm water with the addition of washing-up

cloth and rinse with a little steam.
DESCRIPTION
The steam function is used for frothing milk.
Steam performs two functions. Firstly, it heats
milk. Secondly, it mixes milk with air which gives it
a delicate, smooth appearance.
As is the case with brewing coffee, the best results
with frothing milk are achieved with time as the
user gains experience.
Tip
: Remember that coffee is the basis of all
coffee beverages, and milk is only an addition.
Notice
: It is recommended that espresso is
prepared first, and milk is frothed afterwards.
Before starting the milk frothing process, check
that the espresso machine is in the
steam
mode,
i.e. that the red light of button and the orange
light of the steam button are illuminated.
Warning
: If the espresso machine is not in the
steam
mode (the red light of the button is not
illuminated), it is necessary to press button
to
activate this operating mode.
Check if there is cold water in the tank. If there
●
is no or little water, fill up the tank
(1)
(2)

with cold water.
