dicator (12) keeps blinking until required

How to get good espresso
• Use the coffee powder intended special-
ly for the espresso coffee machines.
• Ram the coffee powder in the filter slight-
ly.
• The strength and flavor of the coffee de-
pends upon sort and quality of the coffee
beans, and also upon the grade of coffee
powder grinding. If coffee is pouring out
for too long this means the coffee powder
is too fine or it is rammed too strongly.
Making espresso
• Insert the power cord plug into the wall
outlet.
• Detach the tank (4), fill it with cold water
up to the MAX mark, and install the tank
into its former position (see Pic. 1).
• Insert the filter (8) into the holder (9).
• Fill the filter (8) with the coffee powder.
• Install the holder (9) into the installation
position (7) by rotating it to the right up to
the stop (see Pic. 2).
• Put the cup of the appropriate high on
the tray (11).
• Switch the coffee machine on by press-
ing the button (14). The indicator (13) is
lighted. The indicator (12) keeps blinking
until the set temperature is reached, af-
terwards it will be deemed.
• The coffee machine is ready for prepar-
ing espresso.
• Turn the steamer supply control handle
(3) upwards. After the cup has been filled
turn the steamer supply control handle
(3) into OFF position (see Pic. 4).
Attention!
- Do not detach the filter holder (9) imme-
diately after preparing coffee as there is
redundant water vapor pressure inside.
Making cappuccino
• You can whip cream or milk to make cap-
puccino coffee, heat water to make some
tea or warm up any other beverages by
hot steam.
• Fill the tank (4) with water and install it
into the proper position (see Pic. 1).
• Switch the coffee machine on by press-
ing the button (14), and wait until the in-
dicator (12) is deemed.
• Put the appropriate can for collecting the
water under the steam outlet nozzle (5).
• Turn on the steam supply by rotating the
control handle (3) downwards to remove
the condensate out of the steam pipe.
After the condensate has been removed
set the control handle (3) into OFF posi-
tion (see Pic. 5).
• Fill the tank with cold milk (it is recom-
mended to use the milk containing 2% of
fat) per one third.
• Put the steam nozzle (6) into the can
filled with milk, turn the control handle
(3) downwards, the steam supply is on.
Several seconds are enough to make the
thick foam. The steam nozzle (6) should
not touch the bottom of the can. Other-
wise the steam release would be blocked
(see Pic. 6).
Important: clean the steam pipe (5) imme-
diately after whipping the cream or milk:
put any can for collecting the water under
the steam nozzle, switch on the steam sup-
ply for several seconds by the control (3)
(see Pic. 3).
Attention! Be aware of the hot steam go-
ing out to avoid skin burns.
