BEFORE FIRST USE
Note : There will be a noise and little shake when the machine
running first time. It’s normal for a 20 bar pump. The noise will be
weak in the future using. It is recommended to run the machine
without coffee grounds at least once before the first use. This
process will help to clean and preheat the appliance.
Rinse the water tank. Remove the water tank lid and fill the water tank with cold
water up to the MAX level of the tank.
Insert the plug into a wall outlet with suitable voltage.
Press the "On/Off "button, the "On/Off "indicator light turns on and the coffee
machine starts to preheat automatically. Once the preheating is finished, the
temperatures Ready indicator will turn blue.
This preheating process takes about 2 minutes.

the Espresso button. Let the waterflow out of the steam pipe about 80 ml, then
press Espresso button again and turn off the Steam control knob. This process is
let the water flow into the empty pump for the first use.

The gauge needle, when positioned anywhere within the solid grey zone during
extraction process, it indicates the espresso has been extracted at the ideal pres-
sure.
The gauge needle, when positioned in the lower zone during the extraction
process, it indicates the espresso has been extracted with insufficient pressure.
This happens when the water flow through the ground coffee is too fast during
extraction, the extracted espresso is too much water, and lacks crema and flavor.
The reasons why under extraction include the ground coffee are too coarse and/or
insufficient ground coffee in the filter and/or under tamping.

The gauge needle, when positioned in the upper zone during extraction process, it
indicates that the extraction pressure is too high.
This happens when the water flow through the ground coffee is too slow, results in
over extraction, which makes the espresso dark, bitter and uneven crema.
Causes for over-extraction include too fine ground coffee and/or too much ground
coffee in the filter and/or over tamping.

moving it to the left. Be careful not to burn yourself with the water left on the coffee
grounds. Once the Filter holder has been removed, some water will still drip. This is
due to the water pressure in the system. Remove the grounds from the Filter and
any residue from the Brew unit.

normal for a 20 bar pump.
Please press the " On/Off " button to turn off the machine after using.
