Before plugging the appliance into

the mains, make sure that the

voltage corresponds to that stated

on the characteristics plate. Plug the

appliance into an earthed socket.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Please read these instructions

carefully before first using your

Espresso.The appliance must only be

connected to the mains via an

earthed plug. Check that the voltage

shown on the appliance’s indicator

plate corresponds to that of your

electricity supply. It complies with

the requirements of the EEC Directive

(89/336/EEC) and (72/23/EEC).

Never put your Espresso on a hot

surface (electric warming plate, for

example) or close to a flame. Place

on a flat, stable heat-resistant surface

away from water splashes.

Never remove the filter holder

containing the coffee grounds while

water is being passed through, since

the appliance is under pressure at

this time.

any danger.

Do not leave the appliance in

temperature below zero, as the water

contained inside may damage it.

Unplug the machine when it is not

in use.

This product has been designed for

domestic use only. Any commercial

use, inappropriate use or failure to

comply with the instructions, the

manufacturer accepts no

responsibility and the guarantee

will not apply.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Wash all the accessories in soapy

water and dry them before using the

coffee maker for the first time.

Fill the tank with cold water and fit

it into position, making sure that it is

seated properly, figure 1.

Place a container as large as possible

beneath the filter holder. Turn the

function selector (7) on hot water

position and allows all the water

to run through.

Always place the appliance on a flat

stable heat resistant surface. To clean

all the parts, run it through an

Espresso cycle but without using any

coffee, just water.

If necessary, you can stop the

operation by turning the selector to

the OFF setting (16) to empty the

container, then resume the operation.

PREPARING ESPRESSO WITH

ESPRESSO GROUND COFFEE

Fill the tank with cold water and fit it

into position, making sure that it is

seated properly, figure 1.

In order to obtain a good crema with

your Espresso, this coffee maker is

equipped with a cream disc device

(10) (13) that fits inside the filter

holder (9) like those described in

figures 2 and 3.

Place the cream disc (10)(13) in the

filter holder (9). Place the filter

(11)(14) into the filter holder. Use the

measuring spoon (12) to fill the filter

with Espresso ground coffee only -

do NOT use instant coffee (1 spoon =

1 cup, 2 spoons = 2 cups), figure 4.

Remove any Espresso ground coffee

which is lying around the filter.

Fit the filter holder (9) into its

housing. Turn the filter holder to the

right until it stops, figure 5. Do not

force it.

To prepare the coffee turn the

selector to position 18 , the

indicator light (20) will blink. When

the indicator light (20) stops blinking

the coffee maker will have reached

the right temperature to prepare the

Espresso.

Turn the switch to position (15) to

activate the brew cycle and

pre-brewing. When the cups are full,

reset the selector to the OFF setting

(16) .

ES5100_US.qxd 9/05/06 10:57 Page 11

Attention: Do not release the filter

holder while the selector is in

position (15) .

You can also brew coffee directly

by turning the selector to position

(15) , the indicator light (20) will

blink and stays on while the machine

is reaching temperature and remain

permanently on while the coffee runs

through automatically.

To stop the flow of coffee turn the

selector to the OFF setting (16) .

Due to the way it works, you will see

a small amount of residual water

inside the filter after the coffee has

been prepared.

PREPARING COFFEE WITH

ESPRESSO PODS

Apart from ground Espresso coffee

this coffee maker can also use a

selected measure of coffee, ground

and pressed between two filter

papers.

This option offers you the possibility

of preparing delicious Espresso

coffee, quickly and with no mess.

And because the pods are

individually packed and hermetically

sealed, this guarantees that the

coffee retains all of its flavour.

There are two types of Espresso

pods available on the market.

A- 60 mm flexible (loose) coffee

pods, suitable for drip-fed coffee

makers and percolators.

B- 44 mm packed coffee pods,

specially for Espresso machines.

Your coffee maker will not operate

correctly with 60 mm flexible coffee

pods as they do not fit properly in

the filter holder.

Always use packed coffee pods of

approximately 44 mm diameter with

this coffee maker, see figure 10.

These Espresso pods can be found at

your usual retailers.

To use Espresso pod, place the

cream disc (13) and the filter (14) into

the filter holder (9), figure 11.

Place the Espresso pod in the filter

figure 11. Tear excess paper from

pod at perforated edge (figure 12).

Place the Espresso pod with the RED

MARKING FACE DOWN (bend the

paper corner down).

Take care to put all the paper inside

the filter or you will have some drips.

Placing the Espresso pod correctly

will create a richer, thicker crema.

Fit the filter holder (9) into its

housing. Turn the filter holder to the

right until it stops, figure 5. Do not

force it.

To prepare the coffee, please

proceed as for preparing Espresso

with ground coffee.

HOT WATER FUNCTION

To obtain hot water turn the selector

to position (18) .The indicator light

(20) will start to blink. When the

indicator light (20) stays on, the

coffee maker will have reached the

right temperature for this function.

Place a jug or cup below the steam

nozzle (3). Turn the selector (7) to

position (19) . At the same time

time, open the steam control (6)

figure 7 so that hot water comes out

ES5100_US.qxd 9/05/06 10:57 Page 12

throught the steam nozzle.

When the desired quantity of water

has run through, stop the machine

by turning first selector (7) on OFF

setting (16) , and then steam

control (6) on 0 setting.

STEAM FUNCTION AND

PREPARING CAPPUCCINO

The steam can be used to preheat

cups, warm liquids up or to prepare

cappuccino coffee. A cappuccino is

Espresso coffee with a little milk and

a layer of froth. This froth is made by

using the steam nozzle in a jug of

cold milk and then added to the

Espresso coffee.

In order to avoid excess pressure on

the inside of the filter, it is advisable

to remove the filter holder before

using steam.

To froth the milk turn the selector to

position (17) figure 6, the indicator

light (20) will start to blink. When the

indicator light (20) stays on, the right

temperature is reached.

Turn the steam control (6)

anticlockwise, figure 7, and place a

container below the steam/hot water

nozzle (3). When the water inside the

pipe finishes coming out,turn the

steam control (6) on 0 setting. Place

the nozzle inside the jug of fresh,

cold milk and turn the steam control

knob again so that steam comes out,

figure 8. (The milk must be cold).

Once the desired quantity of froth

has been produced, turn the steam

control (6) back on 0 setting, then

turn the selector (7) on OFF setting

(16) .

Lift the jug up and down slightly. Try

not to let the liquid go above the top

of the nozzle as this will prevent air

from entering. To obtain frothy milk,

place the steam pipe just under the

surface of the milk.

Add the frothy milk to the coffee. If

you want, you can sprinkle it with

cinnamon, nutmeg or grated

chocolate and decorate it with a stick

or cinnamon.

Important: Clean away any left over

milk when you have finished

preparing the froth. It is advisable to

give the nozzle a quick burst of

steam to clean it out.

Clean the steam nozzle regularly but

always with the appliance switched

off.

Remove the accessory from the

steam pipe, figure 9, and clean the

outside of the nozzle (3A) with a soft

damp cloth. The accessory (3) can be

washed under the tap. The outlet of

steam nozzle can be unclogged with

a needle.

FROM CAPPUCCINO TO COFFEE

AGAIN

If you decide to make coffee again

after having used the steam function,

the water inside the machine will be

too hot for brewing coffee.To bring

the temperature down, place a

container under the brewing head

and turn the selector on Espresso

position (15) . When the water

flows without steam, turn back the

selector on OFF setting (16) . The

machine is ready for preparing an

Espresso.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Make sure that the coffee maker is

unplugged and cold before

attempting to clean it.

The removable parts can be washed

in soapy water. Do not immerse the

coffee maker in water or any other

liquid.

Using a damp cloth periodically

clean out the area where the filter

holder sits, so as to remove any

coffee that may have become stuck

to it.

as there, may be, hot water left

inside it.

In order to prolong the life of the seal

do not refit the filter holder if the

coffee maker is going to be stored

away for prolonged periods. Do not

place any of the parts into the

diswasher.

DESCALING

The guarantee does not include

Espresso machine which do not

function or do not function properly

because descaling has not been

carried out.

The coffee maker should be

descalled regularly. To do this, fill the

tank with a mix of three parts water

to one part vinegar or citric acid.

To descale follow the following

method:

- Unscrew the grid from the head

of the machine and clean it with

soapy water.

- Place the container beneath the

steam nozzle.

- Turn the selector on hot water

position (19) , and the steam

control (6) on steam position.

control (6) and selector

on OFF setting (16) .

- Wait 10-15 minutes and place the

container beneath the brewing

head.

- Then turn selector on Espresso

position (15) until the water

tank is empty.
