flame, the housing might melt. Surfaces sensitive
to water are not suitable as they might be dama-
ged by water splashes.
Scalding danger due to hot water or steam. Never
place the steam resp. hot water nozzle to the
body direction. During the brewing, never try to
remove the sieve holder.
Never switch on the appliance if the water contai-
ner is not placed. Switch off the appliance prior to
detaching the water container.
Scalding danger! During the operation, some
parts of the EspressoMaker will become very hot.
Avoid direct body contact with the hot compo-
nents. During the operation, always use the han-
dles and buttons designed for this purpose.
Pay attention that children do not have the oppor-
tunity to play with the appliance.
Disconnect the appliance if it is not used for lon-
ger time.
Danger of frost! Since you already taken the
appliance into operation, i.e. filled it with water, it
may only be used and stored in frost-free rooms.
Otherwise the appliance might get damaged.
Usage
With the EspressoMaker, you can prepare 1 or 2
cups of espresso within very short time. The pressure
of 15 bar ensures a rich crema. You can use every
usual coffee sort. There are special coffee sorts for
espresso machines. Just try different sorts in order to
find out your favourite. You can use the coffee freshly
ground or as coffee soft pods (hard pods with a dia-
meter of 45 mm or soft pods with a diameter of up to
70 mm).
On the pre-warming plate (2), you can warm up the
cups in order to enjoy the coffee with an optimum
temperature. With the swivelling hot-water / steam
nozzle (6), you can froth up milk, warm up liquids or
prepare hot water.
Putting into operation
Place the appliance onto a stable and water-resistant
surface.
Prior to first use it is recommended to clean the water
container (4), the sieve holder (9) with sieve attach-
ments (14) (16) and the adapter (15) with washing-up
liquid and rinse it with clean water afterwards.
It is not allowed to press the ON / OFF button
(C) before you have not bled it as described as follows.
Vent / Rinsing
Prior to first operation of the EspressoMaker, or
when it is not used for a longer time, it has to be vent
resp. rinsed prior to switching on. For this purpose,
make ready a collecting bowl which has a capacity of
at least 700 ml. Take out the water container (4) at
the handle from the insert, and open the lid (3) in
order to fill in water.
Only fill cold fresh water in it, never carbonated
water or another liquid, e. g. milk etc.
If filled up to the max marking, the capacity is suffi-
cient for approx. 20 cups à 35 ml/each.
Place back the water container (4) into the insert in
the appliance and firmly press it downwards.
Connect the connection cord into an earthed socket
and open the steam valve (5) by rotating the tur-
ning knob counter clockwise.
Now push the rinsing button (E). The pump works
audibly and the readiness for brewing illuminates
(K). As soon as some water came out from the hot
water/steam nozzle (6) into the collecting bowl, close
the steam valve (5) and place the collecting bowl
under the brewing head (8). After the system has
been filled completely, the appliance switches off
automatically.
Heating up
Firstly place the adaptor (15) into the sieve hol-
der (9) and afterwards place the one-cup-sieve
(16).
Place the 2-cups-sieve (14) into the sieve hol-
der (9).
The sieves must be placed exactly in the position
shown in picture 4 , i.e. the markings must be in line
with the handle.
Place the sieve holder (9) in the position shown in
picture 6 from the bottom on the brewing head / unit
(8) and turn it anti-clockwise . If it is not alined cor-
rectly it will be hard to turn, and there is a danger that
the thread gets damaged and the brewing chamber is
leaking. In this case you should take it off and place it
again.
Press the ON / OFF button (C). The operation
indicator (H) illuminates. When the brewing rea-
diness indicator (K) changes from flashing to
steady light, the brewing temperature is reached. The
brewing system, as well as the cups on the pre-war-
ming plate (2) need approx. 10 minutes up to the opti-
mum temperature.
