USE
STARTING THE APPLIANCE
- Open the cover and fill the tank (1) with fresh clean water, taking care not to exceed the maximum level of the tank.
- Turn on the machine using the on/ off switch (13). The lamp (13a) lights up to indicate that the machine is powered.
- Insert the filter holder into the group head.
- Open the steam / hot water knob (4).
- Turn on the coffee / hot water lever switch (14). When the water starts to come out of the turbo steam nozzle (6), turn off the coffee / hot water switch (14) and close the knob (4).
- After having done this, rinse the internal circuits.
- Place a container under the coffee dispensing spouts and press the coffee / hot water dispensing button (14).
- Repeat this process 5 times.
- After rinsing, wait for the machine to reach operating temperature. The light (15a) comes on to indicate that the temperature has been reached.
To avoid having to repeat this procedure, we recommend that you check the level of water in tank (1) to prevent emptying the machine’s water circuit. If it does happen, repeat the above procedure
- Take care not to pour water onto the connector when filling the tank
- The temperature light (15a) will continue to switch on and
- off automatically during heating. After having switched on the machine, wait about 6 minutes for it to heat up before making the first coffee.
PREPARING ESPRESSO COFFEE
Make sure that you have carried out all the operations indicated in section 4.1 “starting the appliance”.
PRE-HEATING
- Make sure there is enough water in the tank (1).
- Depending on the number of cups of coffee you wish to make, place a one-cup filter (8) or a two-cup filter (9) into the fi lter-holder (10) and insert the filter holder into the group head (5).
- Turn on the main switch (13), the power on light (13a) will come on to indicate that the machine is in operation.
- Wait until the machine reaches the operating temperature in order to dispense a coff ee. The light (15a) comes on to confirm that the temperature has been reached.
PREPARING ESPRESSO COFFEE
- After pre-heating, remove the filter holder (10), select the filter (8) if you wish to make one coffee or the filter (9) if you wish to make two coffees and place it into the filter holder.
- Fill the filter with one or two measures of ground coffee (one measure per cup) according to the type of filter selected. Then level and press the coffee firmly but not excessively with the coffee tamper (12).
- Clean any coffee residues from the edge of the filter and insert the fi lter-holder (10) into the group head (5), moving it towards the right in order to lock it in position.
- Place one or two pre-warmed cups on the grid (7) under the filter holder and turn on the coffee / hot water switch (14). The pressure gauge (3) indicates the operating pressure.
- Once the required amount of coffee has been dispensed, stop delivery by turning off the switch (14) but do not remove the filter holder.
- After having switched on the machine, wait about 6 minutes for it to heat up to the operating temperature before dispensing the first coffee.
- To obtain a good cup of coffee, it is important that you use good quality, well-roasted and correctly ground coffee.
- The pump-type espresso coffee machine requires finely ground coffee. If the coffee is too coarsely ground, the coffee will be light colored and weak without froth and if the coffee is too finely ground the espresso will be dark and strong and have little froth.
- We recommend that you grind the coffee beans with a grinder immediately before making the coffee since the coffee quickly loses its aroma after it has been ground.
- We recommend that you dispense steam for a maximum of 30 seconds.
- Do not touch the hot surfaces (boiler, group head, filter holder, steam supply nozzle) to avoid burns.
- Do not remove the filter holder while coffee is being dispensed to avoid possible burns.
- Under no circumstances place your hands under the group head or the steam supply nozzle as the liquids or steam delivered are hot and may cause burns.
- Do not remove the filter holder immediately after having dispensed coffee, wait for a few seconds to allow any residual pressure to be released in order to avoid possible burns.
DISPENSING STEAM
- Steam can be used for frothing the milk for making cappuccinos or to warm up drinks.
Caution! Danger of burns! Spurts of hot water may be ejected when you first start to dispense steam. The nozzle can become extremely hot. Do not touch it directly with your hands. Using the turbo frothing nozzle (6):
- Prepare the espresso coffee in large cups as indicated in the previous sections.
- When the machine is ready to dispense coffee, direct the steam nozzle towards the grid (7) and open the “Hot water / steam knob” (4) for a few seconds in order to remove any residual water from the steam nozzle.
- When only steam starts to come out, close the steam / hot water knob (4).
- Turn on the steam switch (15).
- Place some cold milk in a tall, narrow container. Fill it with about 100 ml of milk for each cappuccino you want to prepare.
- After about 15-20 seconds, when the temperature light (15a) switches off, place the container with cold milk under the frothing nozzle (6) and then immerse the frothing nozzle a few millimetres into the milk.
- Turn the steam knob (4) slowly anticlockwise to dispense the steam and slowly move the container up and down to obtain a creamier froth.
- Once the volume of milk has doubled, immerse the frothing nozzle completely and heat the milk to 60-65°C.
- Once the milk has been frothed, turn the steam knob anticlockwise to stop dispensing steam and remove the milk container.
- Wipe the steam nozzle with a clean, dry cloth and then drain it into cloth to eliminate any milk residues from inside.
- Turn off the steam switch (15). Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the espresso coffee.
- Do not bring the milk to boiling point.
- After having prepared the cappuccino, if you wish to make more coff ee, fi ll the boiler with water and bring it to the correct temperature. Otherwise, the coff ee may have a burnt taste.
Caution: In order for the machine to operate correctly, do not dispense steam for more than 60 seconds.
HOT WATER
- Make sure that you have carried out all operations in section 4.1
- Place a container under the frothing nozzle (6).
- Open the knob (4) and use the hot water lever (14) to dispense water immediately from the turbo steam nozzle (6).
- Once the required amount of water has been dispensed, turn off the switch (14) and close the knob (4).
- After dispensing hot water, make sure that there is still water in the tank (1).
The water is dispensed at a very high temperature. Be careful to avoid possible scalding.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance, unplug the power cable from the power outlet without pulling the cable. Do not immerse the coffee machine in water or other liquids. Let the coffee machine cool down before cleaning.
CLEANING THE COFFEE MACHINE COMPONENTS
CLEANING THE COFFEE FILTERS Clean the coffee filters regularly under running
water. If the holes are blocked, clean them with a pin or a brush.
CLEANING THE TURBO STEAM NOZZLE
-
To avoid altering the taste of the drinks to be heated and to prevent the holes at the end of the turbo steam nozzle
(6) from becoming clogged, after use, turn the steam knob to dispense a small amount of steam and remove any milk from the inside of the nozzle. Then clean thoroughly with a damp cloth. -
In addition to cleaning the steam nozzle immediately after each use, we recommend that every now and again you clean it more thoroughly (Fig. A).
-
Remove the nozzle cover (E) by pulling it downwards.
-
Turn the threaded locking ring (A) anticlockwise until the steam nozzle is released (8).
-
Clean the injector (D) in warm water to remove any milk residues and, using a needle, clean the hole at the end of the steam nozzle that may have become blocked by hardened milk. After cleaning, reassemble as follows:
-
Insert the threaded locking ring (A) and the grommets (B) and (C) onto the steam nozzle (8). Insert the injector (D) as far as it will go onto the steam nozzle (8) and tighten the locking ring (A) clockwise as far as possible in order to secure the injector in place.
-
Push the nozzle cover (E) upwards onto the injector.
CLEANING THE GROUP HEAD
- It is recommended that you rinse the group head by turning on the coffee / hot water dispensing button (14) without the filter holder inserted.
CLEANING THE WATER TANK
