10.
Check that the tank contains water. ATTENTION: the internal tank has a special floating device that controls the water
level. In case of lack of water, the water missing pilot light (17) comes on automatically and at the same time the sound
alarm buzzes. Please fill the water tank with water (as described under Starting the machine, points 3-5): this will shut
off the pilot light (17) and the buzzer, confirming that the water level is suitable. NB: the water tank must be filled in
with water till the MAX level indicated on the appliance body.
11.
Follow the instruction at point 9 in case the above written operations have not been yet done.
12.
As soon as the pilot light coffee ready (4) goes on, the machine is ready for use.
13.
Place the filter (25-26) in the filter holder (12). Lock the filter holder (12) in the brewing group (13) turning it from the
left to the right, after having poured the desired quantity of ground coffee (1 doser (23) corresponds to 1 coffee dose;
to get 2 coffee cups pour 2 dozers of ground coffee in the filter holder (12) ) and after having pressed it properly with
the pressing tool/tamper (22).
14.

17.
Check that the tank contains water. ATTENTION: the internal tank has a special floating device that controls the water
level. In case of lack of water, the water missing pilot light (17) comes on automatically and at the same time the sound
allarm buzzes. Please fill the water tank with water (as described under Starting the machine, points 3-5): this will shut

Switch on the steam group by pressing the steam main switch (6) (only if it has not been yet done): the pilot light (3)

ATTENTION: every time the steam group is
switched on, once the machine has reached the right temperature, it’s recommended to let the steam come out from
the steamer for about 10/15 sec. This will help eliminate the air inside the steam boiler that could block the steam
distribution!
