Thank you for choosing this coffee machine. To get the very

best out of your new coffee machine it is advisable to read

these instructions before using the appliance. This is the only

way to ensure optimum results and maximum safety.

Using for the first time

Before using the machine for the first time, wash all the acces-

sories in warm soapy water and rinse. For the best tasting coffee

the internal circuits must be flushed through at least five times.To

do this follow the instructions in the paragraph “How to prepare

espresso coffee” using just water.

Installation

• Place the coffee maker on a flat work surface at a safe distance

from taps and sinks.

• Check that the voltage corresponds to that indicated on the

appliance rating plate.The appliance must always be connected

to a well-earthed socket rated at 10A minimum.The manufac-

turer is not liable for damage caused by inadequate earthing of

the appliance.

• In the event of incompatibility between the plug on the appli-

ance and the socket, have the plug replaced by a qualified pro-

fessional.

If the cable is damaged or requires replacing, contact a service

centre authorised by the manufacturer only.

• Never install the machine in an environment that can reach a

temperature less than or equal to 0°C (if the water in it

freezes, the coffee maker may be damaged).

How to prepare espresso coffee

Filling the water tank

Remove the water tank by pulling it sideways, at the same time lift-

ing the tubes (fig. 1).

Rinse the water tank and fill with fresh water up to the upper

mark (fig. 2). Replace the water tank in its housing, ensuring that

the tubes are immersed in the water.

An easier way to fill the water tank is to pull it out just enough so

water can be poured in directly from a jug..

Remember to clean the water tank regularly.

Preheating the coffee machine

To ensure your espresso coffee is dispensed at the right tempera-

ture it is essential that the coffee unit is preheated.

1. Press the ON/OFF switch.The ON/OFF light will light up (fig.

3).

2. Attach the empty filter holder (without coffee) to the machine

by positioning it under the boiler outlet with the handle

towards the left (fig. 4). Push upwards and at the same time

turn the handle as far right as possible. It does not matter if the

handle is not centrally aligned with the machine, as long as the

filter holder is firmly attached to the appliance.

3. Position a cup under the filter holder. Use the same cup that

the coffee will be served in, so that it may be preheated.

4. Wait until the “OK” light comes on (fig 5) and press the deliv-

ery switch (fig 6). Allow water to flow until the “OK” light goes

out, then stop the flow of water by pressing the delivery switch

again (fig. 6).

5. Empty the cup, wait until the “OK” pilot light comes on again

and repeat the whole operation one more time.

(It is normal for a small and harmless puff of steam to be released

when removing the filter holder).

How to prepare espresso coffee using the filter

holder for ground coffee

1. After preheating the appliance as described in the previous sec-

tion, the machine is ready to be used. Insert the ground coffee

filter with frother into the filter holder, making sure the tab is

correctly inserted into the housing as shown in fig. 7.

2. To prepare a single coffee, fill the filter with a level measure of

ground coffee, about 7 g (fig. 8).To prepare two coffees, use the

filter and fill with two loosely filled measures of ground coffee

(about 6+6 g). Fill the filter in small doses to prevent the

ground coffee from overflowing.

IMPORTANT for correct operation, before adding the

ground coffee to the filter holder, make sure there is no

ground coffee left from previous usage.

3. Distribute the ground coffee evenly and press it lightly with the

coffee tamper (Fig. 9).

NOTE:Pressing the coffee is very important in order to prepare

a good coffee. However if you press too hard, coffee will come

out slowly and crema will be of a dark colour. If you press too

light, coffee will come out too fast and crema will be a very light

colour.

3. Remove any excess coffee from the rim of the filter holder.

Attach the filter holder to the machine by positioning the handle

to the left of the boiler outlet, then pushing upwards and turning

the handle to the right (as in preheating the machine fig. 4).

4. Place the cup or cups (cups can be preheated by rinsing under

hot water) on the removable drip tray (fig 10).We suggest you

preheat the cups by rinsing under hot water or by placing the

cups on the shelf (fig. 11).

5. Wait until the “OK” light comes on (fig 5) then press the deliv-

ery switch (fig 6). Allow water to flow until the “OK” light goes

out, then stop the flow of water by pressing the delivery switch

again(fig. 6).Your espresso is now ready.

6. To detach the filter holder, turn the handle from right to left.

To avoid any splashing, do not detach the filter holder

while the machine is dispensing coffee.

7. To r emove the used coffee lock the filter with the built-in lever and let

the coffee fall out by knocking the over turned filter holder (fig. 12).

8. To s witch off the coffee machine, press the ON/OFF switch (fig 3)

How to prepare coffee using the filter holder for

pods (depending upon model)

1. Preheat the machine as described in the ‘Preheating the Coffee

Machine’ section, attaching the pod filter holder to the unit.This

procedure ensures that the coffee is delivered at a hotter tem-

perature and that the seal of the holder is more effective.

2. Remove the pod filter holder and tip any excess water away. Press

button on the holder and insert the pod into the filter (fig 13).

Note: Use pods which conform to the ESE standard: this will be

indicated on the packaging by the symbol as in fig. 14.

The ESE standard is a system accepted by the leading coffee pod

manufacturers, and allows espresso coffee to be prepared simply

and without any mess.

3. Attach the pod filter onto the machine, moving from left to

right (fig 5).

4. Proceed as in points 4, 5 and 6 of the previous section (how to

prepare espresso coffee using the filter holder for ground coffee).

5. To remove the pod, press the button on the filter holder and

simply lift the pod out

6. To s witch off the coffee machine, press the ON/OFF switch (fig 3).

Note: to ensure a tight fit and avoid water leaking from

the rim of the filter holder, you are recommended to

grease the bottom of the lateral tabs from time to time

with butter or oil (as shown in fig. 15).

IMPORTANT: If ground coffee has been used with the

machine before using the filter holder for pods, it may be nec-

essary to clean any remaining ground coffee from the boiler

outlet. (fig. 16). This cleaning operation is necessary in order

to avoid water leakages.

Note: If you use the “Illycaffè” coffee pods supplied in your

machine, insert the coffee pod ensuring the name “Illy” is facing

down and the long side of the pod goes from left to right.

Using the pressure gauge (if fitted)

In order to obtain a good espresso coffee, it is necessary that the

delivery take place with the boiler at its optimum pressure.This

pressure is attained when the pointer of the pressure gauge is

within the grey-coloured section (fig. 17).

How to make cappuccino

1. Prepare espresso coffee, using cups that are large enough for

cappuccinos

2. Press the steam switch (fig. 18) and wait until the “steam” light

comes on (fig. 18) to indicate that the boiler has reached the

ideal temperature for producing steam.

3. Meanwhile, fill a heat resistant container/jug with approximately

3fl. oz. of milk for each cappuccino.The milk should be cold

from the refrigerator and semi-skimmed as this gives the best

results. In choosing the container, bear in mind that the volume

of the milk will increase 2 or 3 times.

4. Position the container with the milk in it under the milk frother

(fig. 19).

5. Immerse the steam nozzle about 5 mm into the milk and move

the steam outlet lever in an anti-clockwise direction (fig. 20) (by

turning the knob to a greater or lesser extent, it is possible to

vary the quantity of steam that comes out from the cappuccino

maker).At this point, the milk will begin to increase in volume

and to appear frothy.

6. When the volume of milk has doubled, immerse the steam noz-

zle and continue heating the milk. Once the desired tempera-

ture has been reached (the ideal temperature is 60°C), stop the

steam by turning the steam outlet lever in a clockwise direction

and at the same time press the steam switch off (fig. 18).

7. Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the espresso

coffee.Your cappuccino is now ready. Add sugar to taste and, if

desired, sprinkle a little powdered chocolate or cinnamon on

top of the froth.

Note: to prepare more than one cappuccino, first make all the cof-

fees then at the end prepare the frothed milk for all the cappucci-

nos.

IMPORTANT: always clean the milk frother and steam nozzle

immediately after use. Proceed as follows:

1. By turning the steam outlet lever (fig. 20), allow a little steam to

come out for a few seconds.Then close firmly by turning clock-

wise.

2. Unscrew the steam nozzle, by turning it clockwise (fig. 21) and

wash it with warm water.

tee.

Other cleaning operations

1. Do not use solvents or detergents when cleaning the coffee

maker. Use a soft, damp cloth.

2. Clean the filter-holder, filters, drip tray and water tank regu-

larly.

ATTENTION: during cleaning, never immerse the unit in

water – it is an electrical appliance.

Descaling

It is advisable to clean the calcium from the machine every 200

cups of coffee. It is recommended that specific (store-bought)

products for descaling of espresso coffee machines be used. If such

products are not available, to proceed as follows:

1. Fill the tank with water using 1.3 litres of water.

2. Dissolve 2 spoonfuls (about 30 grams) of citric acid in the

water (available from chemists).
