1) Starng the Espresso Machine
Filling the Boilers with Water:
Once the installaon procedures have
been completed, it is necessary to ll the
boiler tanks with water. Complete the
following procedure to properly ll the
boiler tanks:
• Coee Boiler
The water ows inside the coee boilers
directly, as soon as the water system and
water lter/soener valves are opened.
Since the inow of water will compress
the air in the boiler, it will be necessary
to remove or “bleed” the air from the
coee boilers. All air must be removed in
order to completely “saturate” the coee
boiler/group assemblies.
To remove the air from the boiler, or
“bleed the groups”, it will be necessary
to remove the plasc cap and the handle
from the top of the group.
Loosen the bleed screws one at a me
to allow air to escape unl water ows
from below the screw head. Tighten the
screw to stop the water from owing.
Over ghtening can cause damage to
the sealing washer and the group cover.
Repeat this procedure on all groups.
• Steam Boiler
Turn the main switch to posion “1”
or ON, then push the encoder knob for
three seconds and the automac steam
boiler level funcon will be switched on,
acvang the auto-ll solenoid valve and
the motor pump. This will ll the steam
boiler to a predetermined level and will
shut o when full.
Note: Air inside the steam boiler may
build up pressure (which may be detected
through the pressure gauge).
Once the pump stops, check the display,
the message “Coee Boiler Filled?”
should be displayed. Push the Encoder
Knob to conrm that the preceding
procedures are complete.
The installaon is now complete and the
espresso machine should be heang to
operang temperatures.
2) Waing for the Espresso Machine to
Heat to Operang Temperature
During this me, it may happen that
the pointer of the coee boiler pressure
reaches as high as 14-15 bar.
This may happen anyme that the heang
element is in the “on” condition. In
this case, it is necessary to adjust the
expansion valve in such a way that the
pressure never exceeds 11-12 bar. In
normal operang condions, the coee
boiler pressure gauges can read anywhere
from 0-12 bar. When brewing, the
pressure should be set to 9 bar.
When the steam boiler reaches operang
temperature, the light on the Tea dispense
buon will switch on.

3) Installing the Portalters
Install the portalter(s) by inserng them
into the group and rotate the handle
from le to right. When the portalters
are inserted properly, you can press any
of the brew buons to start the ow
of water through the portalter. You
should allow hot water to pass through
the portalter(s) for a few seconds each
me, in order to pre-heat the portalter.
Note: It is important to leave the
portalters installed in the espresso
machine when not in use. The portalter
must remain heated for the brew process
to funcon correctly.
4) Brewing Coee with/out Pre-Infusion
It is now possible to remove one of the
portalters to make an espresso beverage.
Place some ground coffee in the filter
itself: 1 dose (approximately 7 g) for the
small lter, 2 doses (approximately 14 g)
for the larger lter.
Press down on the ground coee with
the supplied tamper and install the lter
holder to the boom of the group. Move
the paddle to begin the brewing process.
Mechanically control water and pressure
ow through an internal valve to obtain
superior cup quality tradionally achieved
with “lever” machines. Manual pre-
infusion allows you to bring out dierent
flavor components which affect the
balance and body of the shot, and produce
rounder, soer espresso that highlights
brightness, sweetness and delicates note.
o pre-brewing brewing
Note: Some baristas suggest ushing the
group with water to remove remaining
coee oil or parcles. Some ush aer
every shot. Experimentaon and pracce
is suggested to establish the best possible
procedure for brewing coee.
5) General Notes for Coee Preparaon
The potalters must remain heated since
they are parally isolated from the group
due to the rubber gasket between them.
This can be accomplished by leaving the
portalters installed on the machine when

not in use. The portalters may also be
acvely heated. This procedure may be
carried out by acvang one of the brew
buons to ush hot water through the
portalter then turning o the water ow.
Other than the type of coee blend being
used, naturally, the size of the coffee
granules is extremely important in the
preparaon of a good cup of coee. Ideal
grinding can be determined by making
various coffees using the amount of
ground coee that you would normally
use for each cup (we recommend at least
6g). The most suitable grinding allows
coee to ow gradually from the lter
holder spout - neither too slowly, nor too
quickly. A general rule is that a double
dose should dispense approximately 2
uid oz. of espresso in approximately 25
seconds.
IMPORTANT
To improve flavor, the temperature of
water in the coffee boiler, which has
a direct impact on the groups, may
eventually be increased or reduced
via the digital display (please consult
the Soware Programming Manual for
detailed instrucons).
WARNING
DO NOT REMOvE THE PORTAFILTER WHEN
ITS REALTIvE GROUP IS BREWING HOT
LIQUIDS. THE COFFEE BOILER CONTAINS
WATER AT ELEvATED TEMPERATURE.
WATER TEMPERATURE OvER 125° F / 52° C

5. Preparing Other Hot Drinks
1) Steaming Milk or Other Liquids
Dip one of the 2 steam wands (part 8,
page 5) which are connected to the steam
valve, into the liquid to be heated. Turn
the steam lever on gradually unl steam
is released at the end of the wand.
The steam will heat the liquid and raise
its temperature.
To avoid severe burns, do not allow any
liquid to overow.
In order to successfully foam milk , please
follow these steps:
• Place the pitcher that is parally lled
with milk under the steam wand. Open the
steam valve and bring the temperature of
the milk to nearly 149/158° F 65/70° C.
• Lower the pitcher so that the wand
tip is just below the surface of the milk;
at this point, move the container up and
down just enough to dip the nozzle end
in and out of the milk until you get the
right amount of foam. Gradually pour
the foamed milk over warm espresso for
a fresh cup of cappuccino.
In order to prevent heated liquid from
being sucked back into the steam boiler,
it is recommended that the steam valve
and steam wand be purged by opening
the valve for a few seconds to allow steam
to escape from the end of the steam
wand. Failure to do so can cause
heated liquid to be transferred from the
pitcher to the steam boiler (due to a
vacuum created by cooling parts). This
condition is undesirable and can
contaminate the steam boiler.
2) Preparing Tea and Other hot Drinks.
You may dispense hot water by using the
fixed nozzle (part 10, page 5). To dispense
hot water, press the tea water button.
This button commands hot water
delivery. The temperature of the water
may be adjusted by adjusting the mixing
valve.

it on the group to be cleaned.
- Turn the Paddle Valve on and off
approximately 10 times (10 seconds
intervals) on each group.
- Rinse the group using a normal lter
by running hot water through it several
mes.
2) Cleaning lters and lter holders
- Put 2 or 3 teaspoons of detergent
powder for coee machines in about
1/2 a litre of VERY HOT water.
- Dip filters and filter holders in the
heated soluon and leave them fully
submerged for about 10 minutes.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water and
run hot water through one group several
mes with the lters in place.
- Make one cup of coee and discard in
order to remove any unpleasant avor.
3) Cleaning the drain collector
Remove the drain tray daily and clean.
Inspect the drain well also, and wash away
any leover grounds.
4) Cleaning the body
Wipe the stainless steel surfaces with a
so, non abrasive cloth. Do not use any
alcohol or solvents whatsoever on painted
or decorave parts to avoid damage.
5) Cleaning the hot water and steam
nozzles
Steam nozzles must be cleaned
