NEVER PUT GROUND COFFEE IN THE COFFEE CONTAINER.
It is recommended that you do not use oily, caramelised or flavoured coffee beans for this appliance. These kinds of
beans may damage the appliance.
Check that the coffee beans do not contain any foreign particles such as grit, as any damage caused by the presence
of foreign particles will invalidate the guarantee.
Do not put water into the coffee bean container.
Remember to fit the drip tray to avoid waste water flowing onto the work surface and staining it or scalding you.
Check that your water tank is clean.

The cycle is finished when the light becomes constant. The appliance is now ready to use.
It is preferable to rinse the 2 circuits out at least once after the appliance has not been used for several days. Each
time you plug your appliance in, it will carry out an initialisation cycle.
Preparing the grinder
You can choose the strength of your coffee by setting the coffee bean grinding fineness. The finer the grinding setting,
the stronger and creamier the coffee should be. Set the desired fineness for grinding by turning the 'Grinding fineness

PREPARING ESPRESSO AND LONG COFFEES
YOUR APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED TO MAKE COFFEE FROM COFFEE BEANS ONLY.
When you first make coffee with the appliance or after a long period of absence or a cleaning or scale removal
procedure, a little steam and hot water will come out of the steam nozzle (priming).
Splashing or scalding may occur if the coffee outlets are set too high in relation to the size of the cups.
Note:
The amount of water needed to make an espresso is between 30 and 70 ml.
The amount of water needed to make a coffee is between 80 and 220 ml.
Production of an espresso or coffee
Plug in your appliance.
Press the button . The light will flash during the pre-heating and initialisation cycle.

You can change the volume of water at any time - Fig. 9.
To stop coffee flowing into the cup, you can either again press one of the
position.
The ground coffee is moistened with a little hot water after the grinding stage. A few moments later, percolation as
such starts. Beyond a certain amount of coffee in the cup, we recommend - in order to obtain a stronger coffee - to
divide your preparation into two separate cycles. Example 2 x 70 ml cycles for a cup of 140 ml.

The appliance will automatically sequence 2 complete coffee-making cycles.
Make sure that you don't remove the cups after the first cycle.
If you press the button once and the button a second time (or the other way round), the second one isn't taken
into account.

PREPARING STEAM

Steam froths up the milk to make a cappuccino or a caffe latte, for example, and also heats up liquids. As you need a
higher temperature to produce steam than to make an espresso, the appliance runs an additional pre-heating phase for
steam.
Plug in your appliance.
Press the button: the light flashes during the pre-heating of the appliance.
The light becomes constant.
Press the button - Fig. 11.
The light flashes during the pre-heating.
Once the pre-heating is finished, the light stays constant and you can start the steam production by pressing the
button again.
Press the button again to stop the cycle.
The appliance goes back to its initial position if the steam control is not used after 2 mins.
BE CAREFUL, BECAUSE THE CYCLE DOES NOT STOP IMMEDIATELY.
