RINSING THE SYSTEMS BEFORE FIRST USE
1. RINSING THE ESPRESSO SYSTEM
To ensure your rst cup of coffee tastes great, we strongly recommend that you rinse the
espresso machine with hot water, as instructed below:
Ensure you have removed the red protective cap from under the water tank (1).
– Remove the water tank (A) and ll it. The water level should not exceed the "MAX" mark
on the tank and should contain at least 300 ml (= equivalent to 2 large cups (2-3). Then
replace the water tank, ensuring that the cover is closed. (4).
–Plug in your machine. (5).
–Press the On button (C)(6). On the control panel (D), the "On" indicator light switches
on (D2) (7).
Coffee must always be ground just before it is prepared.
What coffee should you choose?
For an aromatic coffee
Choose pure Arabica coffees or those composed mostly of Arabica coffee.
Artisan roasted coffees are preferred as they lend a better complexity and delicateness to
the avour. For a variety of avours, try pure origin coffees.
For an intense coffee
Choose coffees blended with Robusta – not specically 100% Arabica – or Italian-roasted
coffees or specic Italian-avoured coffees.
Keep the ground coffee in the fridge as this will lock in the avour for longer.
Do not ll your lter holder to the brim; use the measuring spoon (1 spoon for a 50 ml cup,
2 spoons for 2 x 50 ml cups). Clean off any excess coffee from around the lter holder.
If you have not used the appliance for more than 5 days, empty and rinse the water tank.
Always make sure the appliance is switched off before removing the tank to ll it or empty
it.
Always ensure the appliance is positioned on a at and stable surface.
