Safety Precautions

Carefully read through these instructions
before using the appliance. Connect the
appliance only to an earthed mains
supply socket. The voltage rating stated
on the rating plate of the appliance must
correspond with that of the mains supply.
Do not place or use the appliance on hot
surfaces, such as a stove hotplate, or in
the vicinity of a naked gas flame.
Do not remove the filter carrier filled with
ground coffee whilst the liquid is running
through, as the appliance is at this time
under pressure.
Do not refill the coffee-appliance whilst it
is still hot; it takes about ten minutes to
cool down.
Do not pour hot water into the water
reservoirs.
The mains plug must be pulled out if
anything untoward occurs during the
brewing operation, as also before every
time the appliance is cleaned.
Do not remove the mains plug by pulling
on the flex and do not place or hang the
flex over edges or corners.
Do not allow yourself or the mains flex to
come into contact with hot parts of the
appliance, such as the filter carrier,
warming plate or steam nozzle.
Never dip the appliance into water.
The glass jug is not suitable for use in
microwaves, above open fire or on stove
plates.
Keep the appliance away from children.
Do not let the mains flex hang down.
Do not use the appliance if either the
mains flex or the appliance itself is
damaged.
Observe the instructions for descaling.
If the mains flex of this appliance
becomes damaged, it must be repaired
only by the KRUPS customer service
department or by a similarly qualified
individual, in order to avoid any danger to
the person.
Espresso / Cappuccino
Espresso Coffee
Espresso is much stronger and more
aromatic than normal coffee and is drunk
out of small cups called espresso cups. It is
prepared by forcing hot water under
pressure through ground coffee. This
produces the delightful black coffee with the
stimulating effect.
Apart from its characteristic flavour, the
hallmark of espresso is the typical formation
of a splendid froth, called crema. This
requires a high pressure and the use of
genuine, properly roasted espresso coffee
beans which have been correctly ground.
If you do not purchase ready-ground
espresso coffee, grind the coffee beans in a
coffee mill with the setting medium to fine.

Preparing the appliance

Open the lid and remove the water
container (1).
Fill the water container with water (2).
Replace the water container, pressing it
down firmly so that the base valve will
open. Close the lid (3).

Before first use

Before using the appliance for the first time,
as well as if it has not been used for a
lengthy period, you should allow several
cups of water to run through the system
without using espresso coffee meal, in order
to rinse out the system.
Place one of the two filter sieves in the filter
carrier and push the sieve holder back.
Locate the filter carrier on the left at the
mark on the housing of the brewing head
and turn it tightly to the right (4).
