Espresso machine PRESIDENT

Preparing the coffee machine Remove the transport packaging from the coffee machine and place the machine onto a flat surface away from other objects. Connect the power cord plug to 230 V grid. Rinse the metal lever and filters for 1 or 2 cups under running water and dry. Filling the water reservoir Remove the water reservoir, rinse, fill with water to the MAX mark 1 and place back into the coffee machine. Notice: Add water to the reservoir whenever it drops to the MIN mark. Water can be added to the reservoir directly in the coffee machine. A small amount of water may accumulate in the area under the reservoir; remove it using a paper towel when necessary. IMPORTANT NOTICE: Do not use the coffee machine without water in the reservoir to avoid damage to the machine. If there is no water left in the reservoir and the pump has sucked air, switch off themachine, remove the water reservoir, fill it with water to the MAX mark and place back into the coffee machine. Continue following the procedure described in “Hot water preparation” section. You can again use the coffee machine as usual when hot water begins to flow out of the nozzle. Before first use Before preparing your coffee for the first time, operate the machine idle at least twice in the programme for 1 cup or 2 cups, i.e. with the lever fastened and without placing ground coffee in the filter (see “Coffee preparation” section). Switching on the coffee machine Press the switch on/off button 2 ; the blue indicator lamp will begin to flash and the coffee machine will begin to be heated to the operating temperature. Once the indicator lamp ceases to flash, the coffee machine is ready for use. Notice: The coffee machine is heated also continuously during operation, the switch on/off indicator lamp may also go on during the preparation of coffee, milk froth and hot water. Dispensing coffee Insert the filter for 1 cup or the filter for 2 cups of coffee into the metal lever 3 . Use the measuring container to gather finely ground coffee intended for espresso preparation 4 – one levelled off measuring container (about 7 g) for 1 cup and just under two levelled off measuring containers (about 13 g) for 2 cups. Place coffee into the filter and lightly compress it using the tamper so that it is levelled off just under the filter rim 5 . Remove all remaining coffee from the rim of the filter. Inserting and fastening the lever Set the lever with filter filled with coffee so that its handle is aligned with the mark on the left of the coffee machine, insert it into the opening for fastening the lever from below and fasten it in the coffee machine by moving the handle to the end position to the right 6 . Placing cups To prepare 1 cup, place one cup onto the centre of the drip grid so that both dispensing apertures in the fastened lever are directed towards the centre of the cup 7 . To prepare 2 cups of coffee, place two cups close to each other so that either dispensing aperture is directed towards the centre of a cup 8 . Useful hint: Store the cups bottom up on the coffee machine’s warmer. After the coffee machine is switched on, the warmer transfers heat to the cups and warms them 9 . and the coffee machine will begin to prepare coffee. The time of coffee preparation is factory set to 20 seconds for 1 cup and 40 seconds for 2 cups. The blue indicator lamp will go off after the preparation time elapses, coffee preparation will end 10 . Changing the time of coffee preparation You can change the coffee preparation time for 1 cup and 2 cups and thus adjust the required amount and flavour intensity of regularly prepared coffee. Press and hold the button for 1 cup or the button for 2 cups until the blue indicator lamp of the selected programme begins to flash. Release the button and wait until the required amount of coffee is prepared in the cup or cups. When the required amount has been prepared, press the programme button again; coffee preparation will end and the machine will store in its memory and repeat the thus-programmed coffee preparation time every time you make coffee next time. Notice: If you disconnect the coffee machine from the grid for more than 3 seconds, the coffee preparation time will be automatically set back to the original 20 seconds (1 cup ) and 40 seconds (2 cups ). You can reprogramme the coffee preparation time again at any time. Coffee preparation Press the button for 1 cup or the button for 2 cups
