STAND-BY FUNCTION
* To ensure energy conservation the machine automatically passes to the standby mode after 30 minutes of not being used. The machine can be set to the standby mode manually, first of the 30 minutes’ time, by keeping both buttons pressed down for at least 3 seconds. This mode is indicated by the switching off of the buttons. The machine can be reactivated by pressing the buttons again.
PREPARATION FOR COFFEE BREWING
- The coffee machine features two positions for preparing the coffee: espresso cup/mug or glass. Place the cup or small cup under the coffee dis-penser, if you wish to have traditional espresso cof-fee.
- Remove the drop collecting tray to use a glass, if you wish to have weak coffee.
PREPARING THE COFFEE
ESPRESSO DELIVERY
- Make sure that the switch-on/supply buttons lights up to a steady white light.
- Place the cup/coffee cup as shown (see PREPARATION FOR COFFEE BREWING).
- To always have a coffee at the perfect temperature, it is recommended to preheat the cup with hot water. Position the cup under the dispensing spout without inserting the capsule. Press one of the switch-on/supply buttons to supply hot water enough to pre-heat the cup.
- Lift the capsule loading lever until it locks into position to open the pod fitting compartment.
- Never put fingers or objects in the capsule holder. Only Lavazza or compatible capsules must be introduced in the capsule holder.
- Put a Lavazza capsule into the capsule fitting compartment.
- Single-dose capsules are prepared to dis- pense one coffee/product. DO NOT use the capsules more than once. Inserting two or more capsules can cause the machine to malfunction.
- Lower the capsule loading lever to close the pod fitting compartment.
PREPARING THE COFFEE
- Press the ESPRESSO button to start delivery. The machine will stop delivery automatically when the programmed measure is reached (40 ml) (1,35 oz).
- The switch-on/supply button will light up to a blinking white light when the product is being supplied.
- If power supply is interrupted during the coffee supply cycle, restore power supply and restart the coffee supply procedure.
- If during the supply cycle, water lacks in the tank, water lack will be indicated by white steady LED on the selected button, while the LED on the other button will start flashing, then proceed as follows:
- Fill the water tank up to the MAX level indicated.
- Press the power-on/supply button previously se-lected. The button will start flashing and the coffee supply procedure will restart.
- For a new supply cycle, wait for supply buttons and multifunction button turning on with steady white light.
- Once supply is over, lift and then lower the capsule loading lever to unload the exhausted capsule.
- Press the LUNGO button to start delivery. The machine will stop delivery automatically when the programmed measure is reached (120 ml)(4,057oz).
- For a new supply cycle, wait for supply buttons and multifunction button turning on with steady white light.
- Once supply is over, lift and then lower the capsule loading lever to unload the exhausted capsule.
- After 5 supplies the switch-on/supply buttons start blinking fast with white light to indicate that the capsules drawer is filled. Empty the capsules draw-er and press one of the buttons to reset the ma-chine. Now the machine is ready for a new supply.
- In case of soluble pods, it is recommended that a brief plain (i.e. by using only water) supply should be dispensed before inserting the pod, so that you can best enjoy the product.
PREPARING THE COFFEE
COFFEE DOSE PROGRAMMING
- Measures are always programmed using the same button; any other buttons are ignored. The programmed amount of brewed coffee can be changed by repeating the programming.
- Place the mug/cup as shown (see PREPARATION FOR COFFEE BREWING).

- Put a Lavazza capsule into the capsule fitting compartment.
- Lower the capsule loading lever to close the pod fitting compartment.
- Press and hold one of the two coffee delivery but-tons. After about 3 seconds, the selected key will flash and the coffee machine will enter the pro-gramming mode.
- Once the desired amount of coffee has been obtained, stop supply by releasing the button.
- If the programmed measure exceeds the maximum allowed (220 ml-7,44 oz) the machine will automatically stop delivery, the delivery button will blink and the last programmed measure will be saved in the memory. If there is a power failure during programming, the last programmed value remains in the memory. If during a dose programming, water lack is indicated, the machine stops the supply and the dose being program won’t be saved. Once filled the water tank, repeat the dose programming procedure.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
- Never use solvents, alcohol or other aggressive substances or ovens for drying the coffee machine components. Wash machine components (electric components excluded) with cold/luke-warm water and nonabrasive clothes/sponges. All removable components can be cleaned by using a dishwasher. Do not leave water in the tank and water circuit for more than 3 days. If this is the case, drain the tank and circuit, rinse it and refill it with fresh water, then carry out a de- livery without capsule before making any coffee or other beverage.
MACHINE WASHING CYCLE
To clean the dispenser, perform a weekly COF- FEE BREWING procedure without
inserting the capsule.
CLEANING THE USED CAPSULE DRAWER, THE DRIP TRAY DRAWER AND THE COFFEE DISPENSER
- The used pod collecting drawer and the drop collecting drawer should be emptied and cleaned after making coffee 5 times or every two/three days.
