lock into position.
The handle should point to the front of the machine or
slightly to the right.
8 Place one or two espresso cups on the drip plate to line
up with the spouts of the fi lter holder. Depress hot water/
brew switch (2) to pos. “1”.
Espresso will start to fl ow into cups.
9 When cups are 3/4 full, release brew switch to “0”.
The more water you allow to fl ow, the weaker the coffee.
When properly made, the espresso will have a light brown
foam “crema” fl oating on the top.
If not, refer to “In the event of faulty function”.
10 Remove cups and serve.
11 To make more espresso, carefully and slowly remove the
fi lter holder by moving handle to the left. Be careful as
hot water will be on top of the coffee grinds in the holder.
Some water will continue to drip from brewing head as
fi lter holder is removed. That is normal and due to the
pump pressure in the system.
Knock out used coffee grinds from fi lter. For more espresso
repeat steps 6 to 10 above.
Using Coffee Pods
To use coffee pods, remember to only use the “Perfect crema”
pod fi lter (10).
Note: If present, remove the “Perfect crema” fi lter for ground
coffee (11).
1 Follow the procedure described under “Preparation”.
2 Insert the frothing jet device (13) into the fi lter holder
(9). Then, insert the “Perfect crema” pod fi lter (10).
IMPORTANT NOTE: If the frothing jet device (13) is not
inserted, the fi lter holder does not brew coffee correctly.
For this reason, make sure that the device is always
inserted in the fi lter holder before placing the Perfect
crema fi lter.
3 Insert the fi lter holder (9) into the brew unit (14) from
the bottom and wait for it to heat up.
4 Place a container under the fi lter holder (9). Preheat the
fi lter holder by switching the hot water/brew button (2)
to “1” (this operation is only necessary for the
fi rst coffee).
Water will start coming out.
5 Once 150 cc of water have been dispensed, switch the
hot water/brew button (2) to “0” again.
6 After the warm-up, remove the fi lter holder (9) and
insert the pod. Make sure the paper of the pod does not
overhang the fi lter holder.
7 Insert the fi lter holder into the machine with a 45°
movement towards the left.
8 Rotate it to the right to tighten it into position. The fi lter
holder handle shall be perpendicular to the machine or
slightly tilted towards the right.
9 Place a cup under the fi lter holder. Switch the hot water/
brew button (2) to “1”.
Coffee will start coming out.
10 When the cup is 3/4 fi lled, switch the brew button to
“0” again. Remove the cup and serve.
11 To brew more coffee, slowly remove the fi lter holder with
caution, moving it towards the left.
Make sure not to get burnt with water from coffee grounds.
Once the fi lter holder has been removed, some water will
still drop.
This is due to the water pressure in the system. Remove
the coffee grounds from the fi lter. To brew more coffee,
repeat the procedure from step 6 to 10.
Important note: Filters should be kept clean to
guarantee perfect results. Clean daily after use.
If you experience a malfunction
in the coffee brewing process,
leave the Filters in a metal
container of hot boiling water
for 10 minutes, then rinse them
in running water and perform
another brewing.
For a deeper cleaning of the
fi lters, we recommend using
the cleaning tablets specifi-
cally designed to maintain the
effi ciency of the machine.
