before making coffee for the first time
1 Put all buttons in the 'out' (off) position.
2 Lift off the cup warming shelf and pour cold water into the tank. Always make
sure the water is above the line marked on the tank, but never overfill.
G Use cold water. We recommend using filtered water from a Kenwood water
filter as it produces better coffee and reduces limescale. Never use fizzy water.
3 Close the hot water/steam knob by turning clockwise (don't overtighten)
4 Swing out the maxi-cappucino nozzle and put a jug underneath.
5 Put a bowl under the liquid coffee outlet. (Don't fit the filter holder.)
6 Switch the on-off button on. (The on-off and coffee lights will come on.)
7 Switch the coffee button on for 30 seconds or till one cup of water runs into the
bowl. (Allow a few seconds for the water to appear.)
8 Open the hot water/steam knob by turning anti-clockwise
water runs into the jug.
9 Switch the coffee button off (the coffee light will stay on). Close the hot
water/steam knob by turning clockwise. Switch the on-off button off.
G Repeat these steps if you haven't made coffee for a few days.
to make espresso
1 Put all buttons in the 'out' (off) position. Check that the hot water/steam knob is
closed by turning clockwise.
2 Pour water into the tank.
3 Ensure the thermocream disc is in the filter holder. Insert the filter
®
(The thermocream disc has a valve that ensures the flow of coffee is
®
maintained at a constant pressure and closes automatically once the coffee has
been poured. This allows you to obtain a very creamy espresso with an intense
aroma and full bodied flavour.)
4 Add the coffee (one level spoon per cup, maximum 2 cups) and gently press it
down with the pusher . More coffee and firmer tapping will give you a
stronger brew. Less coffee and a light tap will produce a milder espresso. Wipe
off any excess coffee around the rim.
G When buying ground coffee make sure it is suitable for espresso machines.
5 Lift the filter holder into the liquid coffee outlet. Turn it firmly to lock it
6 Put one or two cups underneath. If making 1 cup of coffee centre your cup in
the middle. Generally 1 cup of espresso is equal to 45 ml/1
7 Switch the on-off button on and wait for the coffee light to go out. When
making your first cup of espresso leave the machine for an additional 8-10
minutes to warm up. This will ensure your first cup of coffee is hot. Each time
you make a cup of coffee make sure that the coffee light is off.
8 Switch the coffee button on. After a few seconds, espresso will come out
9 When you've enough espresso - not too much, otherwise it'll be too weak -
switch the coffee button off. Unless you're making more, switch the on-off
button off.
G There'll be water on the filter when you remove it: this is normal.
10 To make more, always clean out the used coffee and then start at step 1.
important
Never remove the filter holder while the coffee button is on or while coffee is
brewing - steam could shoot out and burn you.
to use coffee pads
1 Put all buttons in the 'out' (off) position. Check that the hot water/steam knob is
closed by turning clockwise.
2 Pour water into the tank.
3 Remove the filter and thermocream
4 Fit the filter for coffee pads into the filter holder
5 Place the coffee pad onto the filter, ensuring that the side marked 'down' is
towards the bottom.
6 Press the coffee pad into the bottom of the filter ensuring that the edges of the
paper are tight against the interior of the filter.
G The coffee pad must be completely inside the filter and centrally positioned. It is
advisable to turn the corners inwards.
7 Follow steps 5 – 10 'to make espresso.'
G If the coffee pad is not correctly inserted, or if the filter is not fully locked in
position, a few drops of water may leak from the filter holder.
G When removing the filter holder after use, the coffee pad may remain attached
to the upper part of the machine. To remove it, hold the filter holder at an angle
against the coffee pads and allow it to fall into the holder.
To ensure good quality coffee, only use pads bearing the E.S.E. compatibility
