4.6 Dispensing coffee

Do not remove the filter holder from the dispens-
ing unit when coffee is being dispensed.
The dispensing unit and the filter holder reach
high temperatures. Risk of burns. Do not touch it
with your hands or other parts of the body.
In any case, before dispensing, the most suitable filter holder
for the purpose must be filled as described in the next para-
graph.

Using the filter holders

4.6.1
Before filling the filter holder, make sure it is emp-
ty and that the filter has been cleaned of any pre-
vious coffee residue.
• Use the filter suitable for each type of filter holder to dis-
pense the coffee correctly.
• Compress the coffee with the special tamper.
• Clean the rim of the ground coffee filter before attaching
the filter holder to the dispensing unit.
• Hook the filter holder to the unit without closing it too
tightly in order to prevent the gasket from wearing quickly.
