3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

3–1. STARTING THE MACHINE FOR THE
FIRST TIME
• Take the espresso machine out of
the box and remove all bags and
packaging materials.
• Place the espresso machine on a
stable and level surface, away from
sources of heat and water taps.
• Remove the water tank cover (1)
located on the back of the machine
and take out the tank, taking care not
to damage the tubes inside it.
• Fill the tank with cold water.
• Put the water tank back into its seat
(1), making sure that the tubes have
not been bent and that the filter at the
end of one of them is firmly in place.
• Insert the power plug into an electric
socket (check its voltage).
• Insert the filter holder (8) into the
retainer ring of the group head (5) by
rotating it from left to the right. Leave
it there so that it can warm up ready
for use.
• Turn on the machine by pressing the
main switch (11). The power on lamp
(14) comes on to indicate that the
machine is powered.
• Open the steam / hot water knob (4).
• Press the steam dispensing switch (12)
and the coffee / hot water switch (13).
• When water starts to come out of the
steam / hot water nozzle (6), press the
coffee / hot water switch (13) and the
steam switch (12) again and close the
steam / hot water knob (4).
• After having carried out these
operations, the machine can also be
left on.
3–2. GRINDING ADJUSTMENT
There is a numbered label (22) on the
coffee bean container (17) that acts as
an indicator for the degree of grinding:
".7.6.5.4.3.2.1".
• Use the mark on the frame of the
machine as a reference point and turn
the grinding adjustment knob (23); the
numbered label will turn accordingly.
• The higher numbers correspond to
a coarser grind and consequently the
lower numbers correspond to a finer
grind.
• It is important to set the grinding
adjustment correctly in order to
obtain a good creamy cup of coffee.
It therefore must be adjusted
according to the different types of
coffee available on the market. We
recommend using setting 3.
3–3. PREPARING ESPRESSO COFFEE
WITH COFFEE BEANS
• Make sure that there is water in the
tank (1).
• Press the main switch (11). The power
indicator light (14) and the steam/
coffee ready light (3) will come on (only
if the machine is off, otherwise go to
the next step).
• The machine is ready for use as soon
as the steam / coffee ready indicator
light (3) turns off.
• Insert the 1-cup filter (9) or 2-cup filter
(10) into the filter holder (8) that has
already been warmed.
• Place the coffee beans into the
container (17).
