- To obtain a uniform delivery of coffee, the
pressure exerted on the lever will have to be
proportional to the resistance met by the lever
itself during the delivery.
- Repeat the same operations depending on the
desired number of cups of coffee.
- When you have to make the first cup of coffee,
once the machine is ready, we suggest to lift the
lever (1) halfway up and then pull it down again
for four or five times, so as to allow the unit (10),
the filter-holder (9) and the filter basket (16) to
heat up; doing this you are sure that the first cup
of coffee will be at the proper temperature and
with a good cream, picture H.
Warning: before pouring out one or
several cups of coffee, make sure that
the level of the water in the boiler does
not fall below the minimum level.
- After having prepared the coffee, leave the lever
(1) facing down (resting position) so that the
water left in the boiler does not leak out of the
unit (10), and switch the machine off.
- It is very normal the occasionally water drip after
coffee delivery.
Warning: after the pouring out of each
cup of coffee do not remove the filter-
holder immediately but wait a few
seconds, so that no residual pressure is
left between the filter basket and the
perforated filter plate; this pressure
may cause the rubber gasket of the unit
to come off, or squirts of liquid mixed
with coffee powder contained in the
filter basket
The filter-holder (9) should be removed
from the unit (10) slowly, moving from
left to right, exerting a light pressure
downwards, to aid the release of any
residual pressure and avoid possible
burns.

10 – PREPARATION OF CAPPUCCINO
The replacement of the traditional steam pipe (11) with the Cappuccino Automatic (17) (an optional part
on the models with black base) must take place before starting the machine.The operations to be carried
out are the following:

- After having checked that the right quantity of water is
contained in the boiler and having followed all the required
steps to reach the correct pressure, make sure that the lever (1)
is facing down (resting position) and leave it in this position.
- Before heating any drink, carefully allow a small amount
of steam to be delivered from the pipe (11) operating on
the handwheel of the steam tap (3) anticlockwise, so as to
eliminate any condensation that may form inside the boiler;
subsequently open the steam tap further, to allow the desired
amount of steam to come out, picture I. Once this operation
is completed, close the steam tap knob clockwise.
- To obtain a great amount of steam, the level of the water
in the boiler should be about halfway the level glass (5).
The advice is to carry out steam for two minutes maximum,
to obtain a better performance of the steam supply.
Warning: the temperature of the steam delivers at
around 100° C; carry out this operation with great
care, to avoid possible scalds.
- Make sure that the steam tap knob (3) is closed, picture B.
- Turn the steam pipe (11) clockwise until it stops and slip the
steam pipe out of its seat, pulling it rightwards, picture L.
- Slip in its seat the device with the Cappuccino Automatic
(17), pushing it leftwards, picture M. Turn the device with
the Cappuccino Automatic (17) anticlockwise until it stops.
