6 TIPS FOR CHOOSING COFFEE
As a general rule, any type of coffee available on the market
can be used.
However, coffee is a natural product and its flavour changes
according to its origin and blend; it is therefore a good idea to
try different types of coffee in order to find the most suited to
your personal taste.
For optimal results, we recommend using espresso machine
blends. As a rule, coffee should always come out of the pres-
surized filter holder, without dripping.
The coffee brewing speed can be modified by slightly chang-
ing the amount of coffee in the filter and/or using a different
coffee grind.
Note: The Pod Kit is only available in the Style,
Deluxe and Prestige models.
BEFORE PERFORMING ANY OPERATIONS RELATED
TO HOT WATER/STEAM DISPENSING, MAKE SURE
THAT THE STEAM WAND IS DIRECTED OVER THE WATER
RECOVERY TRAY.
7 HOT WATER
Danger of scalding! Dispensing may be preced-
ed by small jets of hot water. The steam wand
may reach high temperatures: never touch it with bare
hands.

8 STEAM / CAPPUCCINO
Danger of scalding! Dispensing may be preced-
ed by small jets of hot water. The steam wand
may reach high temperatures: never touch it with bare
hands.
Warning! Never brew coffee when the steam
function is on, as the temperature is too high
and there is a risk of burns.
Warning! During coffee brewing, do not remo-
ve the filter holder (if inserted) by manually
turning it clockwise. Danger of burns! The filter holder
can only be disconnected after deactivating the steam
function by pressing the (20) button and letting the
machine cool down as described in Section 4.5.
• During this operation the "machine ready" indicator light
(19) may flash. This should be considered a standard ope-
ration, not a fault.
•
(Fig.5) -
Press the ON/OFF button (16); the indicator light
(17) will turn on to indicate that the machine is on.

operation and not a fault.
•
(Fig.26) -

open the knob (3) for a few seconds, so that remaining wa-
ter can flow out of the steam wand. In a short delay only
steam will come out.
