from the filter basket.
If you are starting the machine for the first time or after a period of non-use, it is
recommended that at least a cup of water be allowed to pass through the boiler’s hydraulic
circuit; this can be achieved by turning steam control knob in an anti-clockwise direction after
placing a cup under the nozzle of the MAXI CAPPUCCINO attachment steam tube, turn ON
pump switch till seeing the clean water out of cappuccino attachment steam tube and then
switching off the pump switch and closing the steam control knob by turning it in a clockwise

OUT
HOW TO MAKE COFFEE
1. WITH GROUND COFFEE: Measure out the coffee into the filter. For a double espresso shot,
use two full measuring scoops and for a single espresso shot, use one scoop.
2. WITH COFFEE POD: Put one coffee pod 45mm in diameter on filter holder for pod for a
single espresso shot.
Insert the filter basket into position. Turn the filter basket anticlockwise 40 to 45 degrees, or
as far as it is possible without using excessive pressure. A preheating time of 8/10 minutes is
recommended, with the filter basket inserted so this too can be preheated as to ensure a nice,
hot first shot of espresso. For subsequent shots, this will not be necessary.
1. pushing power button, pump indicator light is on; heating up boiler;
2. Espresso indicator light on, water hot enough for espresso;
3. pushing down pump switch, pump indicator light on, espresso flewing out of filter
holder;
We suggest that both the first and subsequent shots be made only when the Espresso
indicator light on;
Note: as with commercial-grade coffee machines, do not remove the filter basket when the
supply pump switch is turned on; after having made the espresso, push pump switch again,
pump indicator light off, gradually loosen the filter basket by turning it in a clockwise direction
in order to reduce the internal pressure. If you couldn’t loosen the filter holder due to great
pressure, you could succeed in it after releasing pressure by turn knob Steam control knob
in anti-clockwise direction.
No special operation is necessary when the water in the tank runs out as the machine is
equipped with a special self-priming device. Just unplug the machine, pull out the tank and fill
it with water again.
HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO
To prepare cappuccino, hot chocolate, or to heat other kinds of drinks, press Steam supply
switch,; the Indicator light for steam OFF, indicating it is heating for steam.. When Indicator
light for steam ON, the machine is ready to produce steam. Note: if small puffs of steam
come out of the filter holder while you are waiting for the steam, this is to be
considered absolutely normal.
At this point, place a cup or glass under the MAXI CAPPUCCINO attachment steam tube and
turn the steam supply Steam control knob in an anti-clockwise direction. At first, a little water
will come out, immediately followed by a strong jet of steam. Turn Steam control knob in a
clockwise direction and place the container of milk to be frothed under the MAXI CAPPUCCINO
attachment. Next, immerse the nozzle in the container of milk and turn the steam supply
Steam control knob anti-clockwise once again until the desired volume of froth is achieved.
