Warning! If an extension cord is used, make sure that it has a minimum diameter of 1 mm and that it has a three-pole outlet/ plug. The voltage of the machine has been set during production at the factory. Make sure that the voltage of the power mains corresponds to that on the rating plate underneath the machine. Make sure that the main switch (3) is in the 0 position before plugging the machine into the electrical outlet.
Never use the machine without water. Before turning the machine on, always make sure that the water tank is filled.

Priming the system

Before the first use of the machine, after a prolonged period without use, whenever the water tank has run completely dry, or after drawing steam the system must be primed. Direct the steam arm on the drip tray. Open the steam/hot water knob (8) until a steady stream of water is dispensed. Close the knob. Insert the filter holder (G) into the brew head (4) to pre-heat the filter holder. The machine is now ready to dispense coffee.

Choosing the quality of the coffee
As a general rule all types of coffee on the market can be used, however, since coffee is a natural product and its flavor changes according to its origin and blend, it is advisable to try different types in order to find the one that best suits your personal tastes. For the best results we recommend using a blend which is specifically prepared for espresso machines.
