starting the appliance
Check that the voltage of the domestic network is the same as that indicated on the technical information plate of the appli-
ance. Place the appliance on a lat surface.
Wash the tank the irst time it is used and ill it with cool tap water up to the level marked "MAX", then be careful to put it back
into its seat securely (Fig. 3) following the relevant guide on the bottom of its housing (Fig. 4). Make sure that the control
lever (B) is in the vertical standby position (Fig. 5). Insert the plug into the socket, which must be earthed.
If water drips out of the pipe inside the tank, this does not mean the machine is faulty but it is a sign that the priming
valve is working normally.
Starting the irst time
After having illed the tank up to the "MAX" level with cool tap water, start the machine by pressing the button (A). The indica-
tor lamp (D) will turn on, indicating that the machine is on, as well as indicator lamp (E), indicating that the internal boiler is
starting to heat up. Make at least one cup of water come out of the hydraulic circuit of the boiler by pulling the control lever
(B) forward and down, Fig. 8, until you see water come out of the ilter holder coupling seat (Fig. 9). Put the lever back in
the vertical standby position.
Warning!
Remove at least one cup of water from the boiler hydraulic circuit whenever the appliance is turned on the irst
time or after it has not been used for a period of time, by pulling the water/steam dispensing lever (H) forward after
placing a container under the Maxi Cappuccino device wand (J) Fig. 10. Push the dispensing lever back to stop
water dispensing.
You will notice that the indicator lamp (E) will turn off, indicating that the boiler has reached the right temperature for prepar-
ing the beverage.

Put the Thermocream® Disc (Q), the silicone ring (P) and the Thermocream® Filter (O) into the ilter holder in the order
indicated (Fig. 2). Use the single spout (S) Fig. 12 for one cup of coffee, and for two cups put the double spout (T) Fig. 13
on the machine. Measure out the coffee in the ilter and lightly press with the specially provided presser: two measures for
two cups and one measure for one cup. Insert the ilter holder into its seat.
Tighten the ilter holder while making sure you have hooked it properly onto the lange (Fig. 15).
Warning!
If too much ground coffee is put inside the ilter, turning the ilter holder may prove dificult and/or you may get leaks
from the ilter holder when the coffee is being dispensed.
It is advisable to let the ilter holder heat up a few minutes in its seat before making a cup of coffee so that the irst cup is
piping hot, too. This will not be necessary for the cups of coffee that follow.
To start dispensing, pull the control lever (B) forward Fig. 16. To stop dispensing, raise the control lever (B) to put it back in
the vertical standby position (Fig. 18). The maximum serving of coffee is 50 ml.
Warning!
Like in professional coffee machines, do not remove the ilter holder when the control lever (B) is in the coffee
dispensing position; danger of burns!
After the coffee is made, gradually loosen the ilter holder by turning it clockwise so as to decrease pressure inside of it.
When the machine is in the standby position with the control lever in the vertical position (Fig. 11), the lamp (E) will turn on
and off periodically. This shows that the boiler thermostat is tripping, which serves to keep the water temperature optimum.
It is a good idea to start dispensing the coffee only when this indicator lamp is off, and this is true for both the irst cup and
those that follow.
