Cuisinart EM-350 Manuel D’Utilisation

6

1.   Put the espresso machine on a dry, stable 

countertop or other flat, sturdy surface 

where you will be using the machine.

  IMPORTANT: For first-time use or if the 

machine has not been used for some time, 

it is important that it is rinsed as follows:

2.   Remove the lid of the water reservoir. Using 

the handle, lift the water reservoir off the 

base and fill with fresh, cold drinking water. 

Replace the water reservoir on the base, 

and cover with the lid. Using the tracks as 

a guide, slide the water reservoir back into 

position and push down firmly to engage.

  Important: The unit will not function unless 

the water reservoir is properly in place.

3.    Insert the plug into a power outlet. Press 

the power button once to turn the espresso 

machine on. All of the controls on the front 

of the machine will flash while it’s pre-

heating. Lights will turn steady when the 

unit is in ready mode (approximately  

1 minute).

4.   Make sure the drip tray and grate are in 

place.

5.   Place a mug on the drip tray.
6.   Press the Manual   button and allow the 

water to run through for approximately 5 to 

10 seconds. Press once more to stop.

7.   Position espresso cups on the warming plate.
8.    The machine is now in preheat/ready mode 

and ready to use.

NOTE: If the water reservoir is empty or not 

properly positioned, the unit will not function.  

The Short  , Long  , Manual    and Steam 

 LEDs will flash. Turn off the machine, fill the 

water reservoir, and turn the machine back on.

1.   Using the lever, open the brew head, insert 

a capsule, and close the brew head.

2.   With an espresso cup on the espresso cup 

tray, select either a SHORT 

 (1.2 ounces) 

or LONG 

 (3 ounces) espresso. (The 

selected function and Hotter Temperature 

setting LEDs remain on, while all the other 

LEDs are off. Once all LEDs are on again, 

the machine is ready for the next cycle.)

For optimal results, we recommend using the 

Long   button with the blue "Lungo" 

iperEspresso capsule. The Long    button 

provides an Americano single espresso. Using 

this setting with other iperEspresso

®

 varieties 

will alter the taste. 

NOTE: As part of illy-patented technology in the 

iperEspresso

 capsule, the brewing process is 

completely self-contained in the capsule and 

does not get into the brew head. So there is no 

need to rinse in between cycles as there will be 

no transfer of flavor.
CAUTION: Scalding may occur if the brewing 

head is opened during brewing cycle.

1.   Using the lever, open the brew head, insert 

a capsule, and close the brew head.
