Check that the mains power supply voltage corresponds to 
the value indicated on the rating plate on the bottom of the 
appliance.
Connect the appliance to an earthed and correctly installed 
socket with a minimum current rating of 10A only.
If the power socket does not match the plug on the appliance, 
have the socket replaced with a suitable type by a qualified 
professional.

•  Coffee has been used to factory test the appliance and it 

is therefore completely normal for there to be traces of 
coffee in the mill. 

 

The machine is, however, guaranteed to be new. 

•  You should customise water hardness as soon as possible 

following the instructions in the section “Setting the wa-
ter hardness” on page 18.

1.  Insert the power cable connector into the socket at the 

back of the appliance and connect the appliance to the 
mains electricity supply (fig. 1). Make sure the main 
switch at the back of the appliance is pressed (fig. 2). 

Select the desired language by scrolling forwards or backwards 
using the HOT MILK or LATTE button, or alternatively waiting 
for the language options to scroll automatically on the display 
(about every 3 seconds):
2.  When “English” appears, press and hold the 

button (fig. 3) for a few seconds until “English set” is dis-
played.  

Follow the instructions displayed by the appliance:
3.   “FILL TANK!”: remove the water tank (fig. 4), fill to the 

MAX line with fresh water (fig. 5) then replace in the ap-
pliance.

4.   “INSERT WATER SPOUT!”: Check that the hot water spout is 

inserted on the nozzle and place a container with a mini-
mum capacity of 100 ml underneath (fig. 6).

Press the 

button to confirm (fig. 3). The appliance 

delivers water from the spout then goes off automatically.   

The coffee maker is now ready for normal use. 

•  When using the appliance for the first time, you need to 

make 4-5 cups of coffee or 4-5 cappuccinos before the ap-
pliance starts to give satisfactory results.

•  When making the first 5-6 cappuccinos, it is normal to 

hear the noise of boiling water. After this, the noise be-
comes less. 

•  To enjoy your coffee even more and improve the perfor-

mance of your appliance, we recommend installing a 
water softener filter as described in the section “INSTALL 
FILTER”.  If your model is not provided with a filter, you can 
request one from De’Longhi Customer Services. 

Before turning the appliance on, make sure the main switch on 
the back of the appliance is pressed (fig. 2).
Each time the appliance is turned on, it performs an automatic 
preheat and rinse cycle which cannot be interrupted.  
The appliance is ready for use only after completion of this 
cycle. 

During rinsing, a little hot water comes out of the coffee spouts 
and is collected in the drip tray underneath.  
Avoid contact with splashes of water. 

•  To turn the appliance on, press the

button (fig. 7). 

The message “Heating up... Please wait” is displayed. 

After heating, the message “Rinsing...” is displayed. As well as 
heating the boiler, the appliance also heats the internal circuits 
by circulating hot water. 
The appliance has reached the required temperature when a 
message is displayed indicating the coffee taste and quantity.

Whenever the coffee machine is turned off after being used to 
make coffee, it performs an automatic rinse cycle.

During rinsing, a little hot water flows from the coffee spouts.  
Avoid contact with splashes of water. 
To turn the appliance off, press the

button (fig. 7). The ap-

pliance performs a rinse cycle, then the message “Turning off 
underway Please wait...” is displayed and the appliance goes 
off (standby).

If the appliance is not used for an extended period, switch off 
the machine at the main switch.
