8. USE

The machine has a top shelf on which the cups are

kept and heated, ready for use.

This is very important to obtain good coffee as the

pre-warmed cup stops the coffee from growing cold

too quickly.

8.1. Preparing coffee

● Unclamp the lter-holder from the dispensing unit

and knock any grouts out into the drawer espe-

cially provided for this purpose, taking care not to

damage the rim of the lter.

● Use the lter for 1 or 2 coffees, according to

need.

● Fill the lter with the measure of coffee, level it off

and press it down gently with the presser.

● Remove any ground coffee that has stuck to the

rim of the lter while pressing.

If ground coffee is left on the rim of the lter, a

leaktight seal is not ensured, with consequent

leaking of water and coffee grounds.

● Lock the lter-holder into the dispensing unit rmly

to obtain a leaktight seal.

● Place the cups under the spouts and start pouring

using control 3 - 4 or button panel 5 according to

model (Fig.8).

Models with gas (Fig.8)

● Turn on the water supply tap 2 (Fig.5).

● Turn on the gas tap 3 (Fig.5).

●Turn the main switch 1; the pump is activated,

lling the boiler.

● When the correct level is reached, the pump stops.

Turn the switch 2 in order to activate the resistance

in boiler.

● Turn the gas tap 8 to the vertical open position and

hold down the incorporated button, at the same

time repeatedly press hard on the piezelectric but-

ton 9 until the spark lights the gas ame (carry out

this operation looking through window 12). Hold

the tap button 8 down for approx. 30 seconds to

allow the safety system to keep the ame lighted.

If the ame goes out, repeat the operation.

Should the ame not light up, avoid insisting

and close the gas tap by turning it 90° in a

clockwise direction.

● Wait until the machine reaches its working pres-

sure and until the correct thermal balance is

achieved.

● When the coffee has been poured, leave the lter-

holder attached to the dispensing unit until the next

coffee is required.

When pouring, beware of the hot parts of the

machine, especially the coffee dispensing

units, the steam and hot water spouts. Do not

put your hands for any reason under the units

and the spouts when they are operating.

The grinding of the coffee beans is of funda-

mental importance to the making of good coffee, and

the granular texture of the resulting grounds should

be such that it takes 25-30 seconds to produce the

beverage. If the coffee is ground too coardsely the

coffee will be pale in colour and weak in avour, with

only a very small amount of white cream, and if the

grounds are too ne, the coffee will be dark with no

cream. Good coffee can only be made if the beans

are freshly and uniformly ground (only possible when

the blades of the coffee grinder are sharp) and are

then measured out into the correct quantities (roughly

6 grams per measure).

The importance of freshly ground coffee beans is due to

the fact that once ground, they rapidly lose their aroma-

tic qualities, and fats present in the beans go rancid.

Model L (Fig.8)

Espresso-coffee-machine with mechanical groups

and xed dosing. Bring down the group control le-

ver (4C). Wait for the outow of some coffee drops

in the cup; work the lever only initially, then let it lift

up of itself.

To make 2 coffees, repeat this operation for the

second time.

For the sake of safety, don’t bring down the

lever, if there is no coffee in the lter holder

hooked on the brewing group.

8.2. Preparing cappuccino (Fig.9)

● Make cup of cappuccino with the express coffee.

● Use a high and narrow jug, half-lled with milk.

●

Place the jug under the spout so that the nozzle

touches the bottom.

● Turn on the steam tap and lower the jug so that

the nozzle is almost at the surface of the milk.

● Now, raise and lower the vessel constantly so that

the steam nozzle is immersed in and out of the

milk to create the froth.

● Turn off the steam tap and pour the milk into the

cup.

Immediately after carrying out this operation,

clean the spout with a sponge or a clean

cloth so that the milk does not dry on it. Be

careful as the spout is hot and may burn

your hand.
