a molded 3-prong grounding-type plug, and should be used in combination with a properly connected grounding-type outlet as shown in Figure A.

If a grounding-type outlet is not available, an adapter, as shown in Figure B, may be obtained so that a 2-slot wall outlet can be used with a 3-prong plug. As shown in Figure C, the adapter must be grounded by attaching its grounding lug under the screw of the outlet cover plate.

NOTE: Do not remove the grounding prong.

CAUTION: Before using an adapter, it must be determined that the outlet cover plate screw is properly grounded. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician. Never use an adapter unless you are sure it is properly grounded.

PREPARING YOUR ESPRESSO MACHINE

1. Place the espresso machine on a dry, stable countertop or other flat, sturdy surface where you will be using the machine.
   IMPORTANT: For first-time use or if the machine has not been used for some time, it is important that it is rinsed as follows:

2. Remove the lid of the water reservoir.
   Using the handle, lift the water reservoir off the base and fill with fresh, cold drinking water. Replace the water reservoir on the base, and cover with the lid. Using the tracks as a guide, slide the water reservoir back into position and push down firmly to engage.
   Important: The unit will not function unless the water reservoir is properly in place.

3. Insert the plug into a power outlet. Press the power button once to turn the espresso machine on. All of the controls on the front of the machine will flash while it’s preheating.
   Lights will turn steady when the unit is in ready mode (approximately 1 minute).

4. Make sure the drip tray and grate are in place.

5. Place a mug on the drip tray.

6. Press the Manual M button and allow the water to run through for approximately 5 to 10 seconds. Press once more to stop.

7. Place espresso cups on the warming plate.

8. The machine is now in preheat/ready mode and ready to use.
   NOTE: If the water reservoir is empty, the unit will not function. The Short , Long , Manual  M , and Steam LEDs will flash. Turn off the machine, fill the water reservoir, and turn the machine back on.

USING YOUR ESPRESSO MACHINE

Always make sure you have water in the reservoir, a capsule in the brew head, and that the appropriate tray is being used.

NOTE: This machine is designed exclusively for use with illy’s iperEspresso capsules. Any other type of capsule, pod, or coffee cannot be used.

Single or Double Pre-Programmed Espresso

1. Using the lever, open the brew head, insert a capsule, and close the brew head.
2. With an espresso cup on the espresso cup tray, select either a SHORT (1.5 ounces) or LONG (3 ounces) espresso. (The selected function and Hot Temperature setting LEDs remain on, while all the other LEDs are off. Once all LEDs are on again, the machine is ready for the next cycle.)

NOTE: As part of illy patented technology in the iperEspresso capsule, the brewing process is completely self-contained in the capsule and does not get into the brew head. So there is no need to rinse in between cycles as there will be no transfer of flavor.

Manual/Adjustable Strength Control Programmable

1. Using the lever, open the brew head, insert a capsule, and close the brew head.
2. For adjustable strength control, use the MANUAL M button to adjust the length of time espresso is dispensing – the longer you allow it to flow, the lighter it will be.
   Press the M to start dispensing. When your cup is filled to desired level, press M again to stop.

PROGRAMMING A CUSTOM SETTING

At ready mode, hold and press MANUAL  M for 3 seconds to customize the SHORT and LONG output.

1. , , M are ON. If no action within 30 seconds,unit returns to preheat/ready mode.

   • If no action during dispensing within 90 seconds, unit returns to preheat/ ready mode.

To reset to factory setting at ready mode, press and hold M and or at the same time for 3 seconds.

1.  ,and and M LEDS flash 3 times.
2. Default setting is on and unit will return to preheat/ready mode.

STEAM

1. Remove the milk tank by holding the milk tank and cover, and pull away from the machine. Remove the cover and pour milk into the tank, above min. fill line (5 ounces) but not exceeding the max. fill line (22 ounces). Replace the cover and align the milk tank to the connector on the side of the machine, and push in to install. Place a mug on the drip tray and position the steam wand into the mug. Press the STEAM button to start steaming, and use the steam control dial to control the air/ foam. Press again to stop steaming.
   NOTE: Turning the steam control dial to the right lessens the amount of air/foam. Less air will result in a higher temperature of milk.

2. To steam using water (as a cleaning function), make sure water is in the milk tank.
   Press to start and stop steaming.

CAPPUCCINO or LATTE

1. Using the lever, open the brew head, insert a capsule, and close the brew head.
2. Be sure there is milk in the milk tank and tank is properly installed (see steam section).
3. Place a mug on the drip tray, and position the steam wand in the mug.
4. Use the steam control dial to select the amount of air/ froth you want.
5. Press either the Cappuccino or Latte button. The amount of foam will vary, but a cappuccino requires more foam than a latte, while the latte will use more milk.
6. The foamed milk will be dispensed into the mug, followed by Cuisinart’s patented Burst of Steam feature that quickly cleans the steam wand. Espresso is then immediately dispensed.

Tips for creating a perfect froth:
Milk frothing is the steaming of milk. The steam does two things; it heats milk and it mixes in air to form a foamy texture. As with anything,perfecting the art of milk texturing takes practice, but the results are well worth it!
Use cold, refrigerated milk in the milk tank.
Any type of milk may be used, but for best results, skim is recommended.
Keep in mind that the milk volume will increase during frothing, so use a large enough mug.
NOTE: If the milk tank is not installed or placed in the unit correctly, the STEAM , CAPPUCCINO  and LATTE LEDs will not light. Only lit LEDs are active functions.

TEMPERATURE CONTROLS
Hot is the default setting. If Extra Hot is desired, press the button and allow less than 10 seconds for the temperature to rise. The flashing light will turn steady when it has reached temperature.

Energy Saver Mode
After 30 minutes of non-use the espresso machine will automatically switch to sleep mode and all the control lights will be dimmed by about 50%. When any button is pressed, the espresso machine will return to preheat mode and all the lights will flash.
The machine is ready to operate when all the lights are steady again.

Auto-Off Mode
Following the 30-minute Energy Saver cycle, if there is an additional 30 minutes of non-use, the espresso machine will turn off. Press the power button to turn on again.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning External Parts
We recommend regular cleaning of the espresso maker’s external components.

1. Never immerse the machine in water or other liquids. The housing and external parts may be cleaned with a soapy, damp, nonabrasive cloth.
2. To remove the drip tray, simply slide it toward you, keeping it level at all times in order to prevent spills. The drip tray and drip tray plate are dishwasher safe. Do not clean drip tray with cleansers, steel wool pads or other abrasive materials.

Cleaning the Water Reservoir
It is normal over time for discoloration, spotting or staining to appear in the water reservoir. Results will vary depending on the mineral content of the bottled or filtered water used but will not affect the operation of the machine. However, be sure to clean the water reservoir regularly to minimize build up.
Clean inside the water reservoir with a damp, lint-free cloth as necessary.

Cleaning the Milk Tank
Disassemble all of the removable parts and clean in the sink or dishwasher (top rack only).

Decalcification
Mineral content in water varies from place to place. Depending on the mineral content of the water in your area, calcium deposits or scale may build up in your machine. Though scale is non-toxic, it can hinder performance.

De-scaling the machine will help maintain the heating element and other parts that come in contact with water.
For optimal performance, de-scale your machine every 3 to 6 months. It is possible for calcium to build up faster, making it necessary to de-scale more often.

To begin, you will need the following:

• 10 ounces of distilled white vinegar
• 12-ounce ceramic mug (do not use paper cup)
• Access to sink

Step 1: First Vinegar Rinse

• Fill water reservoir with 10 ounces of undiluted white vinegar.

• Place the ceramic mug on the drip tray.

• Lift the brew head handle, but do NOT add a capsule.

• Close the brew head and press the MANUAL M button.

• M will illuminate blue while the vinegar is dispensing. Press M again to stop it once the mug is halfway full.

• LEDs will start flashing to signal to fill the reservoir.

• Allow the machine to sit for 30 minutes.
  Power on the machine, open and close the brew head, then press M to start dispensing. Press M again to stop dispensing.

• Discard the contents of the mug into the sink.

Step 2: Fresh Water Rinse

• Repeat step 1 three times using fresh water in place of vinegar.
• This will clean the machine’s plumbing and remove any residual vinegar taste.
  The machine is now ready for normal use.

Maintenance: Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.
