Getting started
Before using for the first time, clean all the accessories with warm water and gentle washing-up liquid
and dry.
Then rinse as follows:
1. Connect the device to a mains socket (1).
2. Take off the cover (A) and remove the water tank (B) (2).
3. Fill the water tank with drinking water at room temperature to the MAX marking and replace it on
the device. The tank must be correctly positioned. Replace the lid.
4. If you want to have an Espresso please assembly the collection tray for drip water first to ensure
that the right distance between the cup and the portafilter is given. Therefore remove the drip
tray grid (I) and take the collection tray for drip water (J) out of the device. Remove th drip tray
bracket, turn it upside down and put it back in the recess. Put the collection tray for drip water (J)
on the drip tray bracket and attach the drip tray grid (I). The collection tray for drip water (J) does
not have to be assembeled for cappuccino cups.
5. Make sure that the selector switch (G) is set to the O position (G3 ->
).
6. Press the On/Off button (L ->
) to switch the device on. The device runs self-diagnostics.
7. The cup selection buttons (D1/D2 ->
) light up red, which means that the device is heating
up: when the light rings switch from red to white, the device is ready to use.
8. Place a vessel with a capacity of at least 100 ml underneath the hot water/steam outlet (H).
9. Adjust the hot water output knob (G4 ->
) and allow approx. 100 ml water to run out; then reset
the knob to G3 =

10. Repeat steps 5-8 until the water tank is empty.
11. Then prepare 1-2 espressos or 1-2 cappuccinos. Do not drink them.
Carry out steps 1-7 of the chapter on “Preparing espresso”.
