Before using for the ﬁ rst time

In order to remove all the dust that has deposited during the packing, wash the

glass pot, the ﬁ lter shell, the ﬁ lter holder and the drip collection tray with warm

soapy water. Do not use coarse or sharp cleansing agents. Wipe the base with a

clean and humid towel.

Follow carefully the Safety Instructions!

It is highly recommended to carry out a complete brewing cycle as described in

„Espresso Preparation“ without any coffee powder before making your ﬁ rst cup of

espresso or cappuccino. By doing so, any residual dust left inside the espresso

machine will be removed. The preparation of an espresso or cappuccino is diffe-

rent from that required for a normal cup of coffee. Both espressos and cappuc-

cinos are made by pressing boiling water under pressure through ﬁ nely ground

coffee. Great attention is needed and it is highly recommended to read carefully all

the instructions and safety indications provided herein, before brewing.
