Preparing coffee using coffee
beans
Important! Do not use caramelised or
candied coffee beans as they could stick to the
coffee mill and make it unusable.
1. Fill the container (A3) with coffee beans (fig.
8).
2. Place under the coffee spouts:
- 1 cup, if you want to make 1 coffee (fig. 9);
- 2 cups, if you want 2 coffees.
3. Lower the spouts as near as possible to the
cup. This makes a creamier coffee (fig. 10).
4. Press the corresponding coffee button (1 cup
or 2 cups ) (fig. 6 and 11).
5. Preparation begins. A progress bar appears
on the display and gradually advances as the
procedure progresses (fig. 12).
Once the coffee has been made, the appliance is
ready to use again.
NB!
While the machine is making coffee, run-off
can be interrupted at any moment by pressing
one of the coffee buttons ( or ).
As soon as run-off is finished, to increase the
quantity of coffee in the cup, just hold down
one of the coffee buttons ( or ) until
the required amount is reached (this must be
done within three seconds after completion of
run-off).
If the coffee drips out, or runs out too fast
with little cream or too cold, read the tips in
the "Troubleshooting" section on page 43.
Making coffee using pre-ground
coffee
NB! If you use pre-ground coffee, you can
only make one cup of coffee at a time.
1. Press the button repeatedly (fig. 13)
until "READY PRE-GROUND" is displayed.
Important!
Never add pre-ground coffee when the machi-
ne is off or it could spread through the inside
of the machine and dirty it.
This could damage the appliance.
Never use more than one
level measure or it could
dirty the inside of the machi-
ne or block the funnel.
2. Put one level measure of pre-ground coffee
into the funnel (fig. 14).
3. Place a cup under the coffee spouts.
4. Press the 1 cup coffee button (fig. 6).
MAKING MILKY DRINKS
Filling and attaching the milk
container
1. Turn the lid of the milk container clockwise
until it becomes noticeably difficult to turn,
then remove the lid.
2. Fill the milk container with a sufficient quan-
tity of milk, not exceeding the MAX level mar-
ked on the handle (fig. 15).
NB! You should ideally use skimmed or
semi-skimmed milk at refrigerator temperature
(about 5°C).
3. Make sure the milk intake tube (B4) is cor-
rectly inserted in the bottom of the milk con-
tainer lid (fig. 16).
4. Replace the milk container lid and turn anti-
clockwise as far as it will go.
5. Remove the hot water spout from the nozzle
(fig. 17).
6. Attach the container to the nozzle, pushing as
far as it will go (fig. 18).
7. Place a sufficiently large cup under the coffee
spouts (A14) and the frothed milk spout (fig.
19). If necessary, move the frothed milk spout
slightly outwards (B5 - fig. 19).
