come out. As soon as the cup contains the desired quantity of coffee press the switch 6 again, 
thus interrupting the flow of coffee.- If the coffee comes out too slowly, do not press the coffee 
into the filter so hard; if it still comes out too slowly, use less finely ground coffee. 

- If the coffee comes out too fast and is not creamy, press the coffee more firmly into the filter; if 

the result is no better, use more finely ground coffee. 

- If the coffee comes out of the double spout 8 unevenly, i.e. more form one opening than from 

the other, this is normal and does not depend on the machine. It may always happen or only 
from time to time. When it happens Just move the cups while the coffee comes out so that they 
get filled evenly. 

- When the switch 6 is pressed, a noise will often be heard. It lessens as the cup is being filled. 

This A due to the pump and is normal; it will be even louder when water only is being released 
from the unit 10. 

TO PREPARE COFFEE FOR BREAKFAST 

- Follow the same procedure as for espresso coffee. Just release more coffee and use a bigger 

cup. 

TO USE THE STEAM …….. 

FIRST: 

Every time you use steam remember that: 

1) the steam spout 12 is usually hot. Touch it only with protected hands, e.g. with a damp 

cloth. 

2) the steam spout 12 can be moved horizontally. Place it in the position which you find most 

convenient. 

3) before taking the steam spout 12 out of any liquid you must switch the steam knob 3 off, 

otherwise the liquid will spray out. 

4) after having used the steam spout 12, clean it with a damp cloth, releasing a little steam while 

you do so. This cleaning is necessary in order to prevent the formation of deposits on the end 
of the spout and inside It, especially with milk, which impair the regular flow of steam.  

………. TO PREPARE HOT MILK WITHOUT FROTH AND OTHER HOT DRINKS 

Pour the milk or other drinks into a container like the jug g. Place the jug g under the steam 
spout 12 so that its end is well dipped into the milk or other drink in the jug. Turn on the knob 3. 
As soon as you see that the milk or other drink begins to boll turn the knob 3 off and  only after 
that remove the jug from the end of the steam spout 12. 

………. TO PREPARE HOT MILK WITH FROTH 

Fill to half a caontainer like the jug g with cold milk. Place the container under the steam spout 12 
but so that its end is just under the surface of the cold milk. Turn on fully the steam knob 3. As 
the froth forms, lower the container so that the end of the steam spout 12 is constantly kept just 
under the surface of the liquid. When enough froth has forme d dip the spout 12 completely into
