tion”.

Insert the “Perfect crema” fi lter for ground coffee (10) into
the fi lter holder, both for brewing 1 or 2 coffee cups.
Insert the fi lter holder (7) into the brew group (13) from
the bottom and wait for it to heat up.
3 Place a container under the fi lter holder (7). Preheat the
fi lter holder by pressing the brew button (2) (this ope-
ration is only necessary for the fi rst coffee).
Water will start coming out.
4 Once 150 cc of water have been dispensed, press the brew
button (2) again.
5 Wait for the machine to reach the correct temperature
with the fi lter holder cup inserted (warm-up time is about
6 minutes).
6 After the warm-up period, remove the warm fi lter-holder
(7) from the brewing head and fi ll with correctly ground
espresso coffee using the measuring spoon provided.
Place one level measure of coffee in basket for each cup
of espresso.
Do not overfi ll.
Gently tamp down coffee with the tamper (17) pro-
vided.
Do not compress too fi rmly.
7 Clean any excess coffee from the rim of fi lter holder (7).
Insert fi lter holder into brew head by holding handle ap-
proximately 45 degrees to the left as you face machine.
When properly aligned,move handle fi rmly to the right
to lock into position.
The handle should point to the front of the machine or
slightly to the right.
8 Place one or two espresso cups on the drip plate to line
up with the spouts of the fi lter holder. Press button (4)
to dispense the programmed coffee dose.
9 Coffee dispensing will be automatically stopped when the
preset level is reached (see “Coffee dose programming”);
anyway coffee dispensing can be stopped by pressing
button (4) again.
10 Remove cups and serve.
11 To make more espresso, carefully and slowly remove the
fi lter holder by moving handle to the left. Be careful as
hot water will be on top of the coffee grinds in the holder.
Some water will continue to drip from brewing head as
fi lter holder is removed. That is normal and due to the
pump pressure in the system.
Knock out used coffee grinds from fi lter. For more espresso

and then press button 2. When you have obtained the
