underneath the steam nozzle and
insert the nozzle into the pitcher
(Fig.4).
4. Once the steam nozzle is immersed
in the pitcher of water, turn the steam
knob in an anti clockwise direction
to open the steam nozzle. Continue
this procedure until no more steam

(for drip filter coffee) to the max
capacity and operate the appliance
per steps (1-5) of section “make drip
filter coffee” (Do not use filter coffee
powder for this first time use). Repeat
it for several times to clean the
appliance.
2. Add fresh water into the boiler

measuring spoon (Fig. 6). Use
one spoon (15g) of ground coffee
powder per cup. You can adjust
according to your taste.
MAKE ESPRESSO COFFEE
1. Turn the boiler unit cover in an anti-
clockwise direction to open the boiler
unit (see Figure A), then fill it with an
adequate amount of drinking water.
Purified drinking water provides a
better taste and flavour of coffee.
(Fig. 8 & 9)

jug on the warming plate directly
under the drip filter coffee section.
(Fig. 7)
5. Plug the power cord into the wall
socket and press the switch to
the “I” position, the switch will
illuminate. The coffee maker will
begin operating. You may stop the
brewing by pressing the switch to the
“O” position at any time. The coffee
maker will continue brewing once
pressing the switch to the “I” position
again.
Note: Always switch off the power and
remove the plug from the wall
socket before filling it with water.
Ensure that the water does not
overflow out of the boiler unit.
2. Turn the boiler unit cover in a
clockwise direction to tightly close
it (see Figure A & 10), then turn the
steam control knob in a clockwise
direction to ensure that the steam
control knob is tightly closed (see
Figure B). If it is not closed, the boiler
unit will not build up pressure and
the water will flow out of the steam
nozzle.
Note: at any time, you can take out
the large jug to serve, but the time
should not exceed 20 seconds.
Otherwise, the water will overflow
out of the filter.
6. The coffee will keep warm on the
warming plate if you do not switch off
the coffee maker. The coffee maker
will automatically switch off after two
hours, as a safety feature, so that it
does not overheat.

The stop and serve closes off the filter
so effectively that there is virtually no
coffee dripping onto the warming plate.
Once the glass jug is replaced, the

wait approximately 3 minutes
for the coffee maker to generate
enough steam to froth the milk.
Before generating steam, fill a cup
(preferably a straight walled cup)
with about 150 ml of milk (preferably
2% milk for the best results) for each
cup of cappuccino. Lift up the cup to

ensure the steam nozzle is immersed
in the milk, and then carefully turn
the steam control knob in an anti-
clockwise direction for it to begin

maker cool down completely before
cleaning.
2. Clean the housing of coffee maker
by wiping it with a moist cloth or
sponge. Do not use alcohol or
abrasive cleaning agents as it might
cause damage to the coffee maker.
Note: Never immerse the housing in
water for cleaning.
3. Remove the filter holder, clean the
coffee residue inside, and then
you can clean it and the filter with
dishwashing liquid. Be sure to rinse
with clear water.
Note 1: Bear in mind that the milk
generally increases in volume by 1.5
times, so make sure the height of the
cup is enough.
4. Clean the glass jugs, permanent filter,
and drip tray (Fig. 19) in warm water
with some dishwashing detergent.
Note 2: to get a better effect, move the
cup constantly up and down. This
spreads the temperature throughout
the milk faster.
2. Mix espresso coffee with frothed milk
and stir, add chocolate powder if
necessary.
HOW TO DESCALE MY COFFEE
MAKER
3. It is necessary to clean the steam
nozzle once you have finished using
the coffee maker, so that the dry
milk doesn’t block the steam outlet.
In order to do this, grasp the nozzle
with your hand and secure the pipe
with your other hand. Now pull the
steam nozzle off (Fig. 18). Wash it
with warm water to clean off any milk
residue. After cleaning, reassemble it
back into its original position.
The coffee maker must be de-scaled
regularly. The frequency depends on
the hardness of your water and how
often you use the coffee maker.
Recognisable indications that de-scaling
is necessary are:
•
•
Increased noise during boiling
Longer preparation time
If usage is frequent, de-scaling should
be carried out as follows:
Caution: The steam nozzle will be hot
after steaming, so we advise
•
•
With soft water, once per year
With medium water, once every
3 months
that you allow it to cool down
before cleaning or touching it.
•
With hard water, once per month
If in doubt regarding the water
hardness in your area, you may
call your local water department.
For ecological and health
reasons, we recommend the
exclusive use of biological
materials such as citric acid,
which can be obtained from
pharmacies.
Note: to prepare more than one
cappuccino, first make all the coffees
and then at the end prepare the
frothed milk for all the cappuccinos.
