AUTO SHUTOFF
After 25 minutes of inactivity, your espresso maker will shut o. The heater will shut o and the
light will go out. To turn it back on, either:
1. Move the control to the on (F) position.
2. Turn the steam/hot water control counterclockwise and then back to the o position (A).
FILLING
1. Remove the water tank by lifting it upwards (Fig A).
2. Fill the water tank with cold, fresh water to the max marking (Fig. B).
3. Ret the water tank (Fig. C). Ensure it is correctly tted and fully seated.
MAKING ESPRESSO
Espresso can be enjoyed on it’s own or used for many popular espresso based variations such as
Latte, Cappuccino, Americano, etc. Your espresso maker can make a single shot (approx. 30ml),
or a double shot (60ml) of espresso.
Filling the portalter
1. Decide whether you are making a single shot or double shot.
2. For a single shot t the 1 shot (smaller) sieve into the portalter; for a double t the 2 shot
(larger) sieve (Fig. D). For ESE (easy serving espresso) pods use the 1 shot sieve.
3. Use the measure to ll the sieve (Fig. E). For a single shot use 1 measure and for a double
use 2 measures (Fig. F). The coee in the measure should be level and not heaped (Fig. G).
