• 6 Close the "hot water/steam" knob (3) by turning it
counter-clockwise. Remove the container.

starts blinking. Close the knob and wait until the ma-
chine is ready.
4.7 Using the Machine for the First Time or
After a Period of Inactivity
This simple operation ensures an optimum brewing and must
be performed:
- at fi rst start-up;
- when the machine remains inactive for a long time (more
than 2 weeks).
Dispensed water must be emptied into an ad-
equate drain. It is not suitable for food use. If
the container fi lls up during the cycle, stop dispensing
water and empty the container before resuming the
operation.
A 2 Rinse the water tank and refi ll it with fresh drinking
water. Insert the water tank back into its seat in the coff ee
machine and make sure that it locks into place - its profi le
should adhere to that of the coff ee machine.
B Turn on the machine by pressing the (11) button. Wait until
the " " light (14) turns on steady.
C 5 Place a container under the steam wand (Pannarello).
Open the knob (3) by turning it clockwise. The pump is ac-
tivated automatically.
D Dispense the whole water tank content from the steam/
hot water wand (Pannarello); to stop the dispensing pro-
cess, close the knob (3) by turning it counter-clockwise.
During this operation the pump is automatical-
ly disengaged and the "
" light (20) is blink-
ing: this is a normal behaviour of the machine. Close
the knob. Wait until the "
" light (14) is steady on
before opening the knob again.
E 2 Fill the water tank with fresh drinking water. Insert
the water tank back into its seat in the coff ee machine and
make sure that it locks into place - its profi le should adhere
to that of the coff ee machine.
F 13 14 Insert the fi lter holder into the brew unit (4) from
the bottom and turn it from left to right until it locks into
place.
G 15 Place a suitable container under the fi lter holder.
H 17 Press the " " button and dispense a cup of hot wa-
ter.
At the end of the process, stop the operation by pressing
the "
" button.
I Repeat the operations described in step (H) until the wa-
ter tank is completely empty.
L 2 Refi ll the water tank with fresh drinking water.
M 19 Remove the fi lter holder from the unit by turning it
from right to left and rinse it with fresh drinking water.
Now the machine is ready. Please see related chapters for oper-
ating details on how to brew coff ee and dispense steam.
5 Rinsing
Note: make sure the fi lter holder is inserted to
ensure a proper warm-up of the machine.
The machine is set so as to automatically rinse the coff ee circuit
with fresh water every time it is turned on. This is conceived to
ensure the correct machine warm-up and an optimum coff ee
aroma.
Place a container under the dispensing spout.
On newly purchased machines this function is active (the "
" light (16) is on) and is performed at the end of the warm-up
phase, when the "
" light (14) turns on steady.
Note: should no water pour from the fi lter
holder, perform a manual rinse as described in
sect. 7.1.
The rinsing procedure may:
A be stopped by pressing the "
" (15) or (13) button.
B be deactivated by pressing the " " button (15) while the
" " light (14) is blinking or steady on; in this case the "
" light (16) turns off .
Note: if the rinsing procedure is deactivated,
it can be reactivated only by pressing the "
" button.
6 Energy Saving
The machine is designed for energy saving.
After 9 minutes of inactivity, the machine turns off in order to
save energy and respect nature.
Press the ON/OFF "
" button (11) to operate the machine.
