1. Place the coffee machine on a flat and stable surface.

2. Remove and clean the water tank by dragging it upwards and fill it with water. Then put it back in the same position. You will notice that it inserts smoothly and fits perfectly.

3. Fill the coffee bean container after lifting the lid. You must fill the tank a little below the limit allowed by the lid to be able to close it.

4. Plug the coffee machine into a mains socket.

5. Switch on the machine, test it and wipe the coffee spout with a damp cloth.

Note: The water may not come out at the ideal temperature during the first few uses. This is normal until the water pipes are filled with hot water and the machine reaches the desired temperature. Press and hold the power button for 3 seconds to switch off the coffee machine.

1. Adjust the height of the coffee spout and place a cup underneath. To adjust, simply slide the output up or down.

2. Press the espresso icon to brew 1 espresso coffee.

3. As the machine starts to operate, you can readjust the parameters if desired. During grinding (the control panel display shows a “g” icon), press the “+” or “-” buttons to adjust the amount of coffee powder. During coffee preparation (“ml” is displayed on the right-hand side of the display), click the “+” or “-” icons to adjust the number of millilitres of coffee.

4. To brew 2 cups of coffee, press the double coffee icon.

5. Press “EXIT” to finish the operation.

1. Adjust the height of the coffee spout and place a cup underneath. To adjust, simply slide the output up or down.

2. Press the Americano button to prepare an Americano coffee.

3. As the machine starts to operate, you can readjust the parameters if desired. During grinding (the control panel display shows a “g” icon on the right), press the “+” or “-” buttons to adjust the amount of coffee powder. During coffee preparation (“ml” is displayed on the right-hand side of the control panel display), press “+” or “-” to adjust the amount of liquid coffee.

4. To prepare two Americano coffees, press the double coffee button.

5. Press EXIT to stop coffee preparation.

Installing the milk tank:

1. The milk tank is fitted to the bottom rack by the shape of its base.

2. Open the milk tank lid and fill the milk tank to the desired level. Then close the lid. Keep in mind that if you put more milk in than the quantity you are going to use, it will stay out of the refrigerator longer than it should, which could spoil it and cause unpleasant odours.

3. Place the pipe connecting the milk tank to the coffee machine as shown in the manual. To do this, connect the milk tank outlet to the inlet on the right side of the coffee spout.

Preparing hot water or milk (using the milk tank):

1. Adjust the height of the coffee spout and place a cup underneath. To adjust, simply slide the output up or down.

2. Press the “Water/Milk” icon to dispense water.

3. Press and hold the “Water/Milk” icon for 3 seconds to prepare a glass of milk.

4. If you want to stop dispensing water or milk, press the “Menu/Exit” button to stop the flow.

1. Adjust the height of the coffee spout and place a cup underneath. To adjust, simply slide the output up or down.

2. Press the “Cappuccino/Latte” icon to dispense a Cappuccino.

3. Press and hold “Cappuccino/Latte” for 3 seconds to prepare a Latte.

4. If you want to stop dispensing water or milk, press the “Menu/Exit” button to stop the flow.

Warning: Clean the milk outlet immediately after use. Prevent milk residues from blocking the outlet and creating unpleasant odours.

WARNING: When you need to adjust the grind level of the coffee beans, turn the grind level knob when the grinder is in operation, otherwise the grinder may be damaged.

Adjust the grind level according to the degree of roast of the coffee beans you use (medium roast beans are recommended). If the coffee comes out too slowly during brewing (the coffee powder is too fine), turn the grind level knob to a coarser grind. If during brewing the coffee comes out too fast and too clear (the coffee powder is too coarse), turn the grind level knob until a finer grind is obtained.

If the coffee powder is too coarse, turn the grind level knob counterclockwise for a finer grind; if the coffee powder is too fine, turn the grind level knob clockwise for a coarser grind.

Points to bear in mind:

1. The dial is set to the maximum value during the first few uses. It is recommended not to adjust it after the first 100-150 cups. The more repetitive the grinding process, the more the grinder will be adjusted and the less malfunctions will be found in the future.

2. Do not overfill the bean container or leave the coffee beans inside for a long time so that they do not get too wet and lose freshness (especially on humid days). Moisture will affect the grind, brew and taste of the coffee.

3. If the coffee beans are wet, empty the container and fill it with fresh coffee beans for better taste. Turn the grind level knob to maximum and try grinding the coffee beans. If the coffee machine is working properly, return the knob switch to its original position. By doing this, you will be able to check if there are any beans left inside.

4. If the coffee beans do not grind properly, it is possible that the coffee beans are too wet or that there is too much coffee bean oil accumulated inside. In the latter case, add some grinder cleaner to the bean container and try grinding again.

1. Adjust the height of the coffee spout and place a cup underneath.

2. Touch the rinse button for 3 seconds to start cleaning/rinsing. This function uses about 60 ml of water and ends automatically after cleaning is completed. It is used to remove possible coffee residues in the pipes.

ATTENTION: When reinstalling the brewing unit, a snapping noise will be heard; if you do not hear it, disassemble the unit again and reinsert it.

ATTENTION: Check whether the water tank is at the same level as the top of the machine, so that it is positioned correctly. If this is not the case, push the water tank down until it clicks into place.
