12. After approximately two minutes, the espresso coffee will begin to flow out (fig. 21). ATTENTION: to avoid spraying, never detach the filter holder while the machine in brewing coffee. 13. When the coffee no longer flows out from the filter holder, push the ON/OFF switch for espresso/cappuccino to turn off the hot water heater (fig. 20). Pour the coffee into the cups. Before removing the filter holder, it is important to eliminate all of the residual steam from the boiler to avoid puffs of steam. Allow it to blow out completely by rotating the steam release knob (fig. 23). 14. To dispose of used grounds in the filter, first remove the filter holder by turning the handle to the left. Using the special lever in the handle to keep the filter in place, remove the grounds by turning the filter holder upside down and striking gently. (fig. 22). NOTE: For safety reasons, when the boiler is hot, it is not possible to remove its plug as it will spin without opening. If for any reason it is necessary to remove it, it is important to always release the steam in the boiler by acting on the steam release knob as described in the previous point. HOW TO USE THE TWO CUP ATTACHMENT The attachment must be used every time that it is desired that the coffee drips directly into the cups. To mount the attachment, it is sufficient to attach it to the lower part of the filter holder (fig. 24). CARE BEFORE INITIAL USE: The first time that coffee is prepared, it is necessary to wash all of the accessories and the internal circuits of the machine as follows: • For the drip coffee machine: make at least two pots of coffee without using the ground coffee in the filter (following the instructions in the paragraph How to prepare the coffee filter); • For the espresso coffee: make at least four cups of espresso coffee without using ground coffee in the filter (following the instructions in the paragraph How to prepare the espresso coffee); 8 HOW TO PREPARE CAPPUCCINO • To make two cappuccinos, prepare the espresso coffee as described in the paragraph "How to prepare espresso coffee" from points 1 through 12; using however, the quantity of water necessary to obtain 2 cappuccinos as indicated in the chart at the end of this text. Note that the quantity of water required for making cappuccinos is greater that the amount necessary for making espresso coffee: the extra water is used for the production of steam for frothing the milk. • In the meantime, pour the milk, not boiled and not hot, into the milk tank (fig. 25). For a really good froth try using semi-skimmed milk at refrigerator temperature. With the tank filled to the MAX line, there will be enough milk to make 2 or 3 cappuccinos. Never fill beyond the MAX line otherwise once the cappuccino has been made, the milk may continue to drip out of the tube. • Brew the coffee into the small espresso coffee pot. When the darker coloured coffee (which lies under the lighter coffee coloured froth) reaches the level 2 on the "COFFEE LEVEL" side of the small espresso pot (fig. 26), place the Vario System selector to the "cappuccino" mode (fig. 19). Careful attention must be paid to this operation: in fact, if the coffee should surpass the level 2, there will be no water left in the tank to make the steam for frothing the milk. • Pour the coffee into 2 sufficiently large cups. • Place the cup containing the coffee under the tube of the milk tank, making sure that the milk tank has been attached firmly, then turn the steam release knob in a counter-clockwise direction. The frothed milk will begin to exit from the tube of the milk tank (fig. 23). Before beginning this operation, always wait for the "OK" light (fig. 27) to turn on which indicates that the ideal temperature has been reached for frothing the milk. To keep the milk from spraying it is necessary to slide on the antispray nozzle (fig. 28) onto the tube of the milk tank. This is also useful when the cups used for the cappuccino are quite small. • Fill the cup with the desired quantity of frothed milk. To ensure that the milk froths correctly,

12.After approximately two minutes, the espresso
coffee will begin to flow out (fig. 21).
ATTENTION:
to avoid spraying, never detach
the filter holder while the machine in brewing
coffee.
13.When the coffee no longer flows out from the
filter holder, push the ON/OFF switch for
espresso/cappuccino to turn off the hot water
heater (fig. 20).
Pour the coffee into the cups.
Before removing the filter holder, it is
important to eliminate all of the residual
steam from the boiler to avoid puffs of steam.
Allow it to blow out completely by rotating

For safety reasons, when the boiler is hot,
it is not possible to remove its plug as it will spin

HOW TO USE THE TWO CUP ATTACHMENT
The attachment must be used every time that it is
desired that the coffee drips directly into the cups.
To mount the attachment, it is sufficient to attach it
to the lower part of the filter holder (fig. 24).
CARE BEFORE INITIAL USE:
The first time that
coffee is prepared, it is necessary to wash all of
the accessories and the internal circuits of the
machine as follows:
•
For the drip coffee machine:
make at least two
pots of coffee without using the ground coffee
in the filter (following the instructions in the
paragraph How to prepare the coffee filter);
•
For the espresso coffee:
make at least four
cups of espresso coffee without using ground
coffee in the filter (following the instructions in
the paragraph How to prepare the espresso
coffee);
HOW TO PREPARE CAPPUCCINO
•
To make two cappuccinos, prepare the
espresso coffee as described in the paragraph
“How to prepare espresso coffee” from points
1 through 12;
using however, the quantity of
water necessary to obtain 2 cappuccinos as
indicated in the chart at the end of this text.
Note that the quantity of water required for
making cappuccinos is greater that the amount
necessary for making espresso coffee:
the
extra water is used for the production of steam
for frothing the milk.
•
In the meantime, pour the milk,
not boiled and
not hot
, into the milk tank (fig. 25).
For a really good froth try using semi-skimmed
milk at refrigerator temperature.
With the tank filled to the MAX line, there will
be enough milk to make 2 or 3 cappuccinos.
Never fill beyond the MAX line otherwise once
the cappuccino has been made, the milk may
continue to drip out of the tube.
•
Brew the coffee into the small espresso coffee
pot.
When the darker coloured coffee (which
lies under the lighter coffee coloured froth)
reaches the level 2 on the “COFFEE LEVEL” side
of the small espresso pot (fig. 26), place the
Vario System selector to the “cappuccino”
mode (fig. 19).
Careful attention must be paid
to this operation:
in fact, if the coffee should
surpass the level 2, there will be no water left in
the tank to make the steam for frothing the milk.
•
Pour the coffee into 2 sufficiently large cups.
•
Place the cup containing the coffee under the
tube of the milk tank, making sure that the milk
tank has been attached firmly, then turn the
steam release knob in a counter-clockwise
direction.
The frothed milk will begin to exit
from the tube of the milk tank (fig. 23).
Before
beginning this operation, always wait for the
“OK” light
(fig. 27) to turn on which indicates
that the ideal temperature has been reached
for frothing the milk.
To keep the milk from
spraying it is necessary to slide on the anti-
spray nozzle (fig. 28) onto the tube of the milk
tank.
This is also useful when the cups used for
the cappuccino are quite small.
•
Fill the cup with the desired quantity of frothed
milk.
