NOTE OF CORD:

WARNINGS:
a. Pressure
In order to prevent hot steam and hot water from scalding the body or caus-
ing other personal injuries as well as prevent damage to this product, do not
remove the water tank or portafilter when the machine brews coffee or makes
froth. Before you remove the portafilter to brew another cup of coffee, make

STEAM/HOT WATER ILLUSTRATION
BEFORE THE FIRST USE
•After water stops dispensing, empty the water in drip tray or in the cup.
•Thoroughly clean the detachable parts of the whole machine with warm water.
NOTE:
Do not extend any parts of your body closed to portafilter and steam tube
to avoid scald during brewing hot water.
Before the first use or the machine has not been used for a long time, you should
follow below steps to rinse and warm up the internal pipes of the machine.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Check and ensure that all accessories are complete and not damaged.
Fill the water tank with clean water, and water level should not exceed the MAX
position.
Align the portafilter with portafilter bracket (no coffee powder is placed at this
moment), and rotate the portafilter counterclockwise to lock it tightly (place a
single-cup or double-cup filter as needed).
Put a cup on the drip plate, plug in the appliance, press “ ” button and the
appliance enters into the preheating condition, after finish preheating, the
appliance will enter into the standby mode.
Turn the knob to “ ”, after a while, some steam will flow out of the steam
tube. The steam tube shall align with the drip tray or a cup can be used for
collecting the steam or hot water.
Press “ ” or “ ” button to clean the pipes in the machine, use a cup to
collect the water to avoid any scald.

Choose the right coffee powder
- 6 -
Coffee powder
The coffee should be freshly ground and subjected to deep roasting. You may need
to use French or espresso roasted coffee powder for espresso coffee. Pre-ground
coffee powder can only keep the aroma for 7 to 8 days unless it is stored in a sealed
container, and place it in a cool place. Do not store coffee in the refrigerator or
freezer. In general, it is not recommended to use pre-ground coffee powder. The
coffee beans freshly ground are more easily to retain the aroma of the coffee and
obtain higher coffee quality.
Grind
If you are making coffee, this step is a key step in the espresso making process and
requires more practice.
•
•
•
•
•
•
In order to obtain a uniform and consistent coffee powder, be sure to adjust
the grinding setting according to the type and quality of coffee beans to obtain
a cup of high-quality coffee.
The correct powder should look like salt.
If the powder is too finely ground, it may cause the coffee to flow intermittently
or fail to brew coffee.
If the powder is too coarse, the water will flow through the coffee too quickly,
which will affect aroma and taste of the extracted coffee.
You can adjust the thickness of the ground coffee powder by adjusting the coffee
bean box, which will vary depending on the type and quality of the coffee beans
you use, so you need to make appropriate adjustments to achieve the best
results.
For the freshly-roasted coffee beans (within 1 month), the grinding position
should be set between 5-10, the double-cup (Grind) setting can produce about
19g of powder and the single-cup (Grind) setting can produce about 13g, this will
bring relatively good coffee extraction effect.
In order to prevent the coffee beans from getting wet and affecting the grinding
effect and the final coffee taste, please do not put too much coffee beans in the
bean box.
