MAKING COFFEE

ENSURE THAT THE APPLIANCE IS NOT PLUGGED IN AND PLACE IT ON A FLAT, LEVEL SURFACE.
Using for the first time
- Open the hatch (16) and unscrew the boiler tank safety cap (15) anticlockwise.
- Fill the boiler tank completely with water, using the relevant measure (14).
The hole near the safety cap (Fig. 2) allows any excess water poured in with the measure to fall into
the drip tray (5).
- Tighten the boiler tank cap securely, turning it clockwise.
- Dose the ground coffee in the Thermocream® filter (12) using the relevant measure (9): one dose
for one cup of coffee, two doses for two cups.
The Thermocream® filter (12) has a single hole in its lower part to guarantee that cof-
fee is dispensed at high pressure (Fig. 3) which means that the result is a rich, thick cream.
- Add the coffee evenly without pressing it.
- Insert the filter holder into the proper seating turning it 40-45° anticlockwise until it can go no fur-
ther (Fig. 4) and making sure it is correctly in place.
WARNING: If you put too much ground coffee in the filter, it may become difficult to turn the filter
holder inside its seat and/or the filter holder may leak when dispensing coffee.
- Plug the power cord into a mains socket.
- Push the power lever (7) back to the pre-heat position (Fig. 5). The pre-heat indicator light (8) will
switch on.
- While the coffee maker is heating up it is normal for small amounts of steam to be form around the
boiler cap.
- After around 3 minutes, once the temperature has been reached, the pre-heat indicator light (8) will
switch off and the appliance will emit a sound signal. At this point, the appliance is ready to dis-
pense coffee.
WARNING: Never wait for more than 3 minutes after the sound signal before dispens-
ing coffee. After 3 minutes, there may be steam leaks or splashes of boiling water
which could cause scalding.
- Place one or two small cups (according to the amount of coffee used in the filter) below the filter
holder.
