4. Important information before use
The SUBITO automatic 2-cup esspresso/coffee machine has a revolu-
tionary new operating concept. The heart of this is its revolving cover
and the crank handle with release lever.
For safety reasons, the appliance leaves our factory set to the posi-
tion for drawing off coffee (Fig. 4). In order to turn the cover, the
crank handle must be lifted to the stop position:
The crank handle is used to rotate the cover and to press the coffee
powder that has been put into the machine. It can only be lowered in
the ‘Brewing’ position (Fig. 2). In order to lift or lower the crank han-
dle, the release lever must be pulled out (Figs. 3 and 5).
The cover can only be rotated in a counter-clockwise direction when
the crank handle has been lifted. It has two stop posi tions: ‘Fill coffee’
(Fig. 1) and ‘Brewing’ (Fig. 2). These positions are reached when the
cover is heard to click into the stop as it is rotated and cannot be
turned back in a clockwise direction.
5. Before using the machine for the first time
5.1 Filling the water tank
Please take the following steps when putting the machine into oper-
ation for the first time, when the machine has been left unused for a
