BREVILLE RECOMMENDS SAFETY FIRST
We at Breville are very safety conscious. We design and manufacture consumer products with
the safety of you, our valued customer, foremost in mind. In addition, we ask that you exercise
a degree of care when using an electrical appliance and adhere to the following instructions:
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING
AND SAVE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
THIS COFFEE MAKER SHOULD BE USED WITH A RESIDUAL CURRENT
DEVICE (SAFETY SWITCH) TO LESSEN THE RISK OF SCALDING OR
OTHER INJURY FROM HOT WATER THAT MAY BE EJECTED IF THE
HEATING ELEMENT ERUPTS. DISREGARD THIS POINT IF YOUR HOME IS
FITTED WITH A RESIDUAL CURRENT DEVICE (SAFETY SWITCH).
BREVILLE RECOMMENDS SAFETY FIRST
• Regularly inspect the supply cord, plug
and actual appliance for any damage. If
found damaged in any way, immediately
cease use of the appliance and return the
entire appliance to the nearest authorised
Breville service centre for examination,
replacement or repair.
••The installation of a residual current
device (safety switch) is recommended to
provide additional safety protection when
using electrical appliances. It is advisable
that a safety switch with a rated residual
operating current not exceeding 30mA be
installed in the electrical circuit supplying
the esspresso maker. See your electrician
for professional advice.

BEFORE FIRST USE
Remove any promotional material attached
to your espresso maker.
Is is recommended that before using the
espresso maker for the first time, fill it to
the MAX mark and run it without using
coffee as per the instructions below. Discard
the hot water once the espresso maker
automatically cuts off.
OPERATION OF YOUR BREVILLE
CAFFEO ESPRESSO MAKER
1. Fill with water
••Position the power base on a firm, level
surface close to a power outlet. Ensure
that the power plug is not plugged into a
power outlet at this stage.
••Unscrew the carafe from the boiler,
then lift the coffee basket out of the top
of the boiler.
••Fill the carafe with
fresh water up to,
but not above the MAX
mark inside
the carafe (300ml).
••Use the carafe to pour
water into
the boiler.
2. Fill with coffee
••Fill the coffee filter
basket with ground
coffee to the rim and
lightly tamp (press
down) the coffee.
••Place the filter
basket back into the
boiler, running your
finger along the rim to remove any loose
coffee grounds and screw on the carafe.

For best results, use coffee
ground for percolators.
The strength of the coffee
can be reduced by using a
lighter roast or using less
ground coffee.
If the coffee is pressed
down too hard in the filter
basket, water will take
longer to pass through the
ground coffee resulting in
a bitter taste.
