Thank you for choosing this coffee machine. To get the very

best out of your new coffee machine it is advisable to read

these instructions before using the appliance. This is the only

way to ensure optimum results and maximum safety.

Using for the first time

Carefully unpack the coffee maker and remove all the packaging

material. Before using wash the accessories and surfaces. Do not

immerse the coffee maker in water; simply wipe with a cloth and

mild detergent if necessary. Do not put in the dishwasher or use

harsh, abrasive cleaners.

For the best tasting results prior to making coffee we recommend

that you flush the coffee maker out with cold water only, without

using coffee to remove any dust which may still be inside the cof-

fee maker. To do this follow the directions ‘Preparing the coffee’.

Installation

• Place the coffee maker on a flat work surface at a safe distance

from taps and sinks.

• Check that the voltage corresponds to that indicated on the

appliance rating plate.The appliance must always be connected

to a well-earthed socket rated at 10A minimum.The manufac-

turer is not liable for damage caused by inadequate earthing of

the appliance.

• In the event of incompatibility between the plug on the appli-

ance and the socket, have the plug replaced by a qualified serv-

ice engineer.

If the cable is damaged or requires replacing, contact a service

centre authorised by the manufacturer only.

• Never install the machine in an environment that can reach a

temperature less than or equal to 0°C (the appliance may be

damaged if the water freezes).

How to prepare the espresso coffee

1Unscrew the water tank cap by turning it anti-clockwise.

2Using the carafe supplied (fig. 1) pour water into the boiler (fig.

2) according to the amounts shown in the table on page 10.

Do not exceed the amounts shown as this could cause the

appliance to malfunction.

While filling the boiler make sure the ON/OFF switch is in the

OFF position.

3Carefully close the boiler cap by turning it clockwise.

4Insert the filter into the filter-holder. (fig. 3).

5Fill the filter with ground coffee using the measures described in

the table (page 10) about 7 g per cup. Fill the filter evenly in

small doses to prevent the ground coffee from overflowing. (fig.

4).

IMPORTANT: Before adding the ground coffee to the filter

holder, make sure there is no coffee left from previous usage.

It is important to use medium ground coffee. (Avoid using too

finely ground coffee otherwise the filter can become blocked).

6Remove any excess coffee from the filter rim (fig. 5).

7Attach the filter holder to the machine by positioning the han-

dle to the left of the boiler outlet, then pushing upwards and

turning the handle to the right (fig. 6).

8Place the carafe with the lid on the drip tray, make sure the

nozzles on the filter holder fit inside the opening on the carafe’s

lid (fig. 7).

Make sure that the steam knob is turned off.

9If the machine is supplied with a strength selector, position the

lever according to the flavour of coffee desired,“light”,“medi-

um” or “strong” (fig.8).

10 Press the ON/OFF switch (fig. 9). The switch will light up.

11 The coffee will start to flow after approximately three minutes.

Turn off the power switch after sufficient coffee has been dis-

pensed.

12 Before unscrewing the boiler cap or removing the filter holder,

residual pressure must be released by slowly turning the steam

knob (fig. 10) so that the residual steam can escape.

Note: for safety reasons the cap turns freely and cannot be

opened when the boiler is hot.The tank therefore cannot be

refilled until all the water has been used or the boiler cools

down (to make this a quicker process, open the steam knob).

13 To detach the filter holder, turn the handle from right to left.

To r emove the used coffee lock the filter with the built-in lever

and let the coffee fall out by knocking the over turned filter

holder.

Coffee made directly into cups

The carafe can be used to make 2 or 4 cups of coffee.

If you prefer to make 2 cups only, fit the adaptor for cups to the

lower section of the filter-holder (fig. 12) and place the cups direct-

ly underneath the nozzles. In this way, the coffee will flow directly

into the cups.

Making Cappuccino

A cappuccino is an espresso coffee with a froth topping made by

heating milk.

•Fill a heat resistant container/jug with approximately 3 fl.oz. of

cold milk for each cappuccino or refer to the table (page 10).

The milk should be cold from the refrigerator and semi-

skimmed as this gives the best results.When choosing the con-

tainer bear in mind that the volume of milk will increase 2 or 3

times.

Models without strength selector

1Follow the steps 1-10 in the paragraph "Making Espresso

Coffee".

Note that the amount of water needed to make 2 cups of cap-

puccino is greater than that required for 2 cups of normal cof-

fee as it is also necessary to produce the steam to froth the

milk.

2Place the steam nozzle in the milk ensuring that the nozzle

opening is just under the surface of the milk, as shown in fig. 13

and open the steam valve by turning the steam knob anti-clock-

wise.

3Move the jug up and down under the steam nozzle as in fig. 14

(this will give maximum froth).

4Froth the milk until there is sufficient froth, then turn the steam

knob clockwise to close the steam valve.

5Allow the coffee to drip through the filter holder into the

carafe, it takes about 3 minutes,then switch the appliance OFF.

Warning: always empty the boiler of any residual water or

steam after using the appliance by slowly turning the

steam knob which will release the residual steam.

6Pour the coffee into 2 large cups then gently pour, or preferably

spoon the frothy milk onto the coffee, then sprinkle on a little

chocolate powder for perfect cappuccino coffee.

7If more cups of cappuccinos are required follow the instructions

above, first ensuring that the boiler has cooled down.

Models fitted with strength selector

1 Follow the steps 1-10 in the paragraph "Making Espresso

Coffee".

For best results the strength selector should be set to “MEDIUM”.

2Allow the coffee to drip into the jug until it reaches the number

2 marked on the side of the jug, then select "CAPPUCCINO".

Follow steps 2-3 in the paragraph “Models without strength

selector” to froth the milk for cappuccino.

3Froth the milk until the steam in the boiler has been completely

used then turn the steam knob clockwise to close the steam valve

and set the ON/OFF switch to “OFF”.

Follow steps 6-7 to finish your cappuccino.

Cleaning the milk frother

IMPORTANT: always clean the milk frother and steam

nozzle immediately after use.

Proceed as follows:

•By turning the steam knob (fig. 15), allow a little steam to

come out for a few seconds.

•Unscrew the steam nozzle by turning clockwise (carefully to

avoid being burnt). Check that the 3 holes shown in fig. 16 are

not blocked. If necessary, clean them with the help of a pin

•Wash the steam tube and steam nozzle thoroughly with warm

water.

•Re-attach the steam nozzle.

Hints

Making good espresso and cappuccino is not difficult however it

does require practice.The following tips will help you get the best

results from your machine:

•Warm the cups before filling with coffee.

•Use an espresso coffee for best results.

•Freshly ground coffee provides the best flavour.To maintain

flavour, fresh coffee is best stored in an airtight container in a

cool place, even in the fridge.

Coffee Maker EC5/7

Cleaning the filter holder

About every 300 coffees, clean the filter holder for ground coffee

as follows:

•Remove the filter

•Clean the inside of the filter holder. Never wash in a dishwash-

er.

•Rinse all components and clean the metal filter thoroughly in hot

water using a brush (fig. 17). Make sure the holes in the metal fil-

ter are not blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin (fig. 18).

Failure to clean as described above invalidates the guarantee.

Cleaning the espresso boiler outlet

About every 300 coffees, the espresso boiler outlet must be

cleaned as follows:

• check that the coffee machine is not warm and unplug from the

mains;

•using a screwdriver, unscrew the two screws that hold the out-

let of the espresso boiler (fig. 19);

•clean the boiler with a damp cloth (fig. 20);

•clean the outlet thoroughly in hot water using a brush. Make

sure the holes are not blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin.

• rinse the outlet under the tap, still scrubbing it;

• replace the outlet of the espresso boiler ensuring the screws

are replaced firmly.

Failure to clean as described above invalidates the guarantee.

Descaling

It is advisable to clean the calcium from the machine every 300

cups of coffee. It is recommended that the specific (store-bought)

products for descaling espresso coffee machines be used.
