USING THE COFFEE MACHINE
Extracting an espresso coffee (35 cc)
•
Remove the water tank by pressing its catch and raising it to
move it away. Fill the detachable water tank without exceeding
the MAX mark inscribed thereon.
Note: The maximum capacity of two water tanks is 1400 ml.
The water tank must be full up to the maximum level, so as
to reduce the frequency of this operation.
•
Then put the water tank back in its place, checking that it has
been correctly placed.
•
Connect the machine to the electrical current and press the general
on/off button which is located at the rear of the equipment. The
water tank indicators and the indicator of the espresso coffee
extraction button are lit up. The equipment starts pre-heating.
•
Once the desired temperature has been attained, the indicators
of the espresso coffee, coffee and tea extraction buttons light up.
•
Place an espresso coffee cup on top of the cup shelf and under
the extraction nozzle.
•
Press the espresso coffee extraction button once and the access
to the capsule insertion hole opens. The indicators of the coffee
and tea extraction buttons go out and the indicator of the espresso
coffee extraction button flashes.
•
Insert just one coffee capsule in the access to the capsule insertion
hole.
•
Press the espresso coffee extraction button a second time.
Access to the capsule insertion hole closes automatically.
•
The equipment prepares the capsule and the indicator of the
espresso coffee extraction button flashes.
•
After preparing the quantity of coffee selected, the equipment
stops and lets the used capsule fall automatically into the capsule
collection tray.
•
During the preparation of coffee, the espresso coffee extraction
button may be pressed for the third time in order to stop the
operation.
•
During the preparation of coffee, if there is any warning of a lack
of water, blockage or no capsule collection tray (the details are
indicated in the TROUBLE-SHOOTING section), the equipment
stops and, to resolve the problem, press the espresso coffee
extraction button to close and eject the used capsule and load
the next capsule.
•
Once the desired coffee has been obtained, the equipment stops
automatically and returns to the "function available for use" mode
