Remove all the plastic bags, packaging material on the Espresso Machine.
Remove the stopper at bottom of water tank.

Prior to initial use and after a longer period of disuse of the Espresso Machine, allow the contents of approx. 2-3 cups of water to run through the machine without adding any coffee powder in the filter. This will clean the water circuit and all parts will be heated up for proper operation.
DANGER OF INJURY, BURNING AND SCALDING!
PLEASE READ ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND FAMILIARIZE YOURSELF WITH PARTS BEFORE USING THE MACHINE!

SETTING UP THE MACHINE

Filling the Water tank

2. Fill the tank with fresh clean water. DO NOT fill exceed the MAX (1.0 Litre) level.
3. Put the tank back in the espresso machine. Press lightly to ensure the water tank is properly attached to the machine. IMPORTANT! Never operate the espresso machine without water in the tank or without fitting the water tank!

Filling the Brewing Filter
This machine includes 2 brewing filters: single shot and double shot filter.

Tips

• Clean excess ground coffee from the rim to ensure proper fit under the brew head and avoid any leaks.
• The compressing of the espresso powder is an important process for preparation. If the powder is compressed tightly, the espresso will run through slowly and there will be more cream.

Pre-heat the machine and cup

3. Press the Steam button “ ”, and the Steam indicator light will start flashing. 

4. Wait until the Steam indicator light stop flashing.
   Note: Prior to frothing milk, it is recommended to clean the steam nozzle. To do this, hold an empty large cup underneath the milk frother nozzle and turn on the steam controller. Wait for approx. 15 seconds, then close the steam controller. Place the large cup aside and start frothing milk.

5. Fill approx. 100 ml of cold milk in milk jug. Ideally, a milk jug is made of stainless steel.

6. Pick up the milk jug and guide the nozzle of milk frother and immerse it lightly into the milk.

7. Hold the milk jug at a slight angle and turn the Steam controller to the “ ” position.

8. Move the milk jug up and down slightly, but ensure the nozzle is always immersed in the milk.

9. Once you have created sufficient milk froth, close the Steam controller and place the milk jugaside. Wipe the nozzle with a clean damp cloth.

10. Press the Power button to turn OFF the machine.

Note: After making steam, you can press “Single-cup” or “Double-cup” button immediately to brew coffee again. The “Single-cup” and “Double-cup” indicator will flash quickly if the temperature is too high. At this time, you need to reduce the temperature by following the operation as below. Turn the knob to “Hot water” setting “ ”, and then the hot water will dispense. When the temperature goes down, the pump will stop automatically and you should turn the knob off, then you can brew coffee again.
If you do not want to brew coffee when the high-temperature warning occurs, you can press the “Single-cup” or “Double-cup” button again to cancel.
Cleaning milk frother
After milk frothing, the steam nozzle must be cleaned. Not doing so may result in steam blockage.

1. Place an empty large cup underneath the milk frother nozzle.
2. Turn on the steam controller and wait for approx. 15 seconds, then close the steam controller.
3. Wipe the nozzle with a clean damp cloth.
4. Detach the nozzle and wipe the milk frother with a clean damp cloth.
   IMPORTANT! Ensure the detachable nozzle is fitted firmly back in place after cleaning. If not fitted firmly back in position, the nozzle may detach during frothing due to steam pressure.

Tips| • Any milk can be frothed (also soya and rice milk). However, some varieties of milk, e.g. whole dairy milk, will give better results than others. Skimmed milk does not froth as easily as whole milk due to low fat content. Therefore, we recommend using milk with a fat content 1.5% to 3.5% for finer froth.
• Well-chilled milk foams better than less-chilled milk. Recommended temperature: approx. 7°C.
• Do not froth milk a second time (due to risk of scalding).
• Allow the frothed milk to stand for approx. 30 seconds before putting the froth on the espresso. During this time, larger bubbles will burst and milk, which is still liquid, sinks to the bottom. The froth becomes even finer this way.

AFTER USE

• Press the power button “ ” to turn off the machine.
• Pull the power plug off from the mains power outlet socket.
• Allow the machine cool down for a few minutes.

Quick clean
