Put the tank back and push as far as it will go.
Move the cappuccino maker outwards (fig. 2) and place a cup underneath it.
3. The appliance now displays:
PRESS OK
Press the
button. After a few seconds, a little water runs out of the cappuccino maker. When the
cup contains about 30cc of water, the water stops running and it switches off.
4. The appliance now displays:

button
To change the quantity of coffee delivered automatically into the cup, follow the instructions
in chapter 6.
(The appliance now grinds the beans and starts running off the coffee into the cup. Once the desired
quantity has been reached, the appliance automatically stops delivering the coffee and ejects the
grounds into the special container).
4. After a few seconds, the ready message is displayed again and you can make another coffee.
5. To turn the appliance off, turn the main knob to the OFF position.
Before switching off, the appliance performs an automatic rinse cycle (a little hot water runs out from
the spouts and is collected in the drip tray beneath). Take care to avoid scalds.
Once switched off, the lights will not shut off immediately and the cooling span motor
operates to avoid condensation in the housing. After about 30 minutes, the appliance
switches completely off.
NOTE 1: If the coffee is delivered a drop at a time or not at all, turn the grinding coarseness regulator (fig. 10)
one click clockwise (see chapter 7).
Turn one click at a time until the coffee is delivered satisfactorily.
NOTE 2: If the coffee is delivered too fast and is not creamy enough, turn the grinding coarseness regulator
(fig. 10) one click anticlockwise (see chapter 7).
Avoid turning the grinding coarseness regulator excessively otherwise when you select 2 cups, the coffee
may run out in drips.
NOTE 3: Tips to make hotter coffee:
• When you turn the appliance on, if you want to make a short coffee (less than 60 cc), use the hot
rinse-through water to preheat the cups.
If 2/3 minutes have passed, since you last made coffee, before making coffee again you must preheat
the infuser by pressing the
button (fig. 11).
Run off the water into the underlying drip tray or alternatively use this water to fill (and then empty)
the cup to be used for the coffee, so as to preheat it.
• Unless preheated, do not use cups that are too thick, as they will absorb too much heat.
• Use cups that have been preheated by rinsing them with hot water or by leaving them for at least 20
minutes on the cup warmer tray on top of the appliance with the appliance on.
NOTE 4: while the appliance is making the coffee, delivery can be stopped at any time by pressing the
,
or
button as previously selected.
NOTE 5: as soon as delivery is complete, to increase the quantity of coffee, simply press and hold the
or button as previously selected, until the desired quantity is reached (this operation must
,
be performed within 3 seconds from when coffee delivery from the spouts ceases).

5 Preparing coffee (using coffee beans)
NOTE 6: when the appliance displays:
FILL TANK
the water tank must be refilled or the appliance will not make coffee.
(It is normal for there to be a little water left in the tank when the message is displayed).
NOTE 7: the appliance counts the number of coffees made.
Every 14 single coffees (or 7 doubles) the appliance displays:
EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER
indicating that the grounds container is full and must be emptied and cleaned.
Until the grounds container has been cleaned, the appliance continues to
display the message and cannot make coffee.
To clean, open the service door at the front by pulling the coffee spout (fig. 12),
remove the drip tray (fig. 13), empty and clean. When proceeding, always
completely extract the drip tray, to avoid it falling when removing the grounds
container.
Empty the grounds container and clean thoroughly, making sure all residues
deposited on the bottom are removed.
IMPORTANT: when removing the drip tray, the grounds container MUST be
emptied, even if it is not completely full. If this is not done, when next making
coffee the grounds in the container may exceed the maximum level and block the
appliance.
NOTE 8: while the appliance is running off coffee, never remove the water tank. If it is removed, the
appliance will not be able to make the coffee.
When using the appliance for the first time, 4-5 cups of coffee need to be made before the
appliance starts to give satisfying results.
If the appliance malfunctions, do not contact the Customer Care Centre straight away.
The problem can almost always be resolved by following the instructions indicated in chapters 14 and 15.
If this is not the case, or for further explanations, contact the Customer Care Centre by calling the number
listed on page 2 of the enclosed sheet.
If your country is not listed on the sheet, call the number indicated on the warranty.

6 Changing the quantity of coffee in the cup
The appliance is factory preset to automatically deliver the following quantities of coffee:
-
-
-
short (when the
standard (when the
long (when the
button is pressed);
button is pressed);
button is pressed);
To change these quantities, proceed as follows:
-
press the button corresponding to the quantity you want to change (
seconds until the message "PROGRAM QUANTITY" is displayed;
,
or
) for at least 8
-
when the coffee in the cup reaches the required level, press the same button again to memorise the
new amount.
7 Regulating the coffee mill
However, after making the first few coffees, if you find that coffee delivery is either too fast or too slow (in
drips), the grinding coarseness regulator can be adjusted (fig. 10).
Turning it 1 click (1 number) clockwise speeds up coffee delivery (without drips).
Turning it 1 click anticlockwise slows down delivery giving a creamier appearance to the coffee.
These adjustments will only be evident after at least 2 cups of coffee have been run off.
The grinding coarseness regulator must only be turned when the coffee mill is on.
Turn anticlockwise to obtain finer ground coffee, slower delivery and a creamier
appearance.
Turn clockwise for coarser ground coffee and faster delivery (not a drop at a time).
(Coffee has been used to factory test the appliance and it is therefore completely normal for there to be
traces of coffee in the mill. This appliance is however guaranteed to be new).
