ring noz¬zles. To stop the flow, press button (Q) again. Note: as 
with professional coffee machines, do not remove the filter ring 
when the supply switch is turned on; after having made the coffee 
gradually loosen the filter ring by turning it in a clockwise direction 
in order to reduce the internal pressure. The minimum serving of 
coffee is 50 ml.
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 
drink, press the right-hand side switch (S); the indicator light (T) 
will come on. When it, goes out, the machine is ready to produce 

steam. CAUTION: if small puffs of steam come out of 
the filter holder while you are waiting for the steam, this 
phenomenon is to be considered absolutely normal.
 At this 

point, place a cup or glass under the MAXI CAPPUCCINO attach

-

ment (D) and turn the steam supply knob (N) in an anti-clockwise 
direction (Fig. 5): at first a little water will come out immediately 
followed by a strong jet of steam. Turn knob (N) in a clockwise 
direction and place the jug of milk to be frothed under the MAXI 
CAPPUCCINO attachment. Next immerse the nozzle in the jug of 
milk and turn the steam supply knob (N) anti-clockwise once again 
until the desired volume of froth is achieved. During these opera

-

tions you may notice that the warning light (T) goes on and off from 
time to time, indicating that the boiler thermostat is keeping the 
water required for the steam supply at the right temperature. It is 
recommended that the steam supply knob is only used when this 

light goes out.

Making further cups of coffee

Allow the boiler to cool by switching off switch (S). If you want the 
boiler to cool down quicker, press switch (Q), at the same time 
keeping the tap (N) open, allowing water to come out of the MAXI 
CAPPUCCINO attachment until the indicator light (T) comes on 
again; then close the tap (N) and switch off switch (Q), wait until 
the indicator light (T) goes out before making another coffee.

Regular cleaning

CAUTION: all cleaning operations described below must 

be per¬formed with the machine turned off. 

Cleaning the filter containing the grounds. Check that the 

internal holes are not clogged and if so, clean them with a small
