Filling the Water Tank...
Turn the selector control knob to the OFF position.
Fill the glass carafe with cold water to the designated marking for the desired number of
servings of espresso. Never use warm or hot water to fill the water tank. Note: If you
are making cappuccino, refer to page 8 for the proper water measurements.

For 2 servings, fill with water up to the 2 cup marking indicated on the carafe.
l
For 4 servings, fill with water up to the 4 cup marking indicated on the carafe.
Remove the water tank boiler cap and pour the water into the water tank. Do not fill
to the top of the tank or there will not be enough area to generate steam.
CAUTION: Do not pour water into the tank while the machine is on. Check to make sure
the selector control knob is OFF. Do not pour more than 10 ounces of water into the
