Coffee has been used to factory test the appliance and it is the-
refore completely normal for there to be traces of coffee in the
mill.

•

Customise water hardness as soon as possible following the in-
structions in the "Setting water hardness" section.

1. Connect the appliance to the mains supply.

Set the required language.  

2.  To set the language, use the              icons (B7 and B8) to choose

the required language (fig. 2).   
When "PRESS OK TO INSTALL ENGLISH" is displayed, press the
OK icon (B9) (fig. 3).
If you set the wrong language, follow the instructions in the "Set-
ting the language" section. 
If your language is not available, select one from those displa-
yed.  The instructions refer to the English version. 
Then follow the instructions displayed:

3.  After 5 seconds, the appliance displays "FILL TANK!". Extract

the water tank (fig. 4), rinse and fill with fresh water without ex-
ceeding the MAX line. 
Replace and push as far as it will go.  

4.  Place a cup under the hot water spout (fig. 5). 

The appliance displays: "HOT WATER press OK".
Press the OK icon (B9) (fig. 3) and after a few seconds a little
water comes out of the spout. 

5.  The machine now displays "TURNING OFF... PLEASE WAIT" and

goes off. 

6.  Extract the appliance by pulling it out using the handles (fig. 6).

Open the lid and fill the container with coffee beans, then close
the lid and push the appliance in. 

The coffee maker is now ready for normal use. 

Important!  Never introduce pre-ground coffee, freeze dried

coffee, caramelised beans or anything else which could damage the
appliance.

N.B.:   When using the appliance for the first time, you need

to make 4-5 cups of coffee and 4-5 cappuccinos before the ap-
pliance gives satisfactory results.

N.B.:  Each time you turn the coffee maker on by the ON/OFF

switch (A23), it performs a SELF-DIAGNOSIS cycle and then goes
off. To turn it on again, press the ON/OFF button (A7) (fig. 1)

Each time the appliance is turned on, it performs an automatic pre-
heat and rinse cycle which cannot be interrupted. 
The appliance is ready for use only after completion of this cycle. 

Danger of burns!  During rinsing, a little hot water flows

from the coffee spouts. 
To turn the appliance on, press the ON/OFF/stand-by button (A7)
(fig. 1). The message "HEATING UP PLEASE WAIT" is displayed.
When heating is complete, the message changes to "RINSING"; 
The appliance is at temperature when the message "MEDIUM CUP
standard taste" is displayed.  

1. The appliance is preset to make coffee with a normal taste.  

You can also choose coffee with an extra-mild, mild, standard,
strong or extra-strong taste. There is also a pre-ground coffee
option.  
To choose the required taste, press the            icon (B4) a num-
ber of times (fig. 7). The required coffee taste is displayed.  

2.  Place 1 cup under the spouts to make 1 coffee (fig. 9) or 2 cups

for 2 coffees (fig. 8). 
Lower the spouts as near as possible to the cup for a creamier
coffee (fig. 10).  

3.  Press the            icon (B5) (fig. 11)  to select the type of coffee:

espresso, small cup, medium cup, large cup, mug.
Press the         icon (B10) (fig. 12) if you want to make a coffee
and the          icon (B11) (fig. 13) if you want to make 2 coffees. 
The appliance now grinds the beans and starts delivering the
coffee into the cup.
Once the set amount of coffee has been delivered, the machine
stops delivery automatically and expels the exhausted waste
coffee into the grounds container. 

4.  After a few seconds, the appliance is ready for use again. 
5.  To turn the appliance off, press the ON/OFF/stand-by button (A7)

(fig. 1). 
(Before going off, the appliance performs an automatic rinse
cycle. Take care to avoid scalds). 

NOTE 1: If the coffee is delivered a drop at a time or not at all, see
the "Adjusting the coffee mill" section.
NOTE 2: If the coffee is delivered too fast and the cream is not sati-
sfactory, see the "Adjusting the coffee mill" section.
NOTE 3: Tips for a hotter coffee:
•

Proceed as described in the section "Changing and setting menu
parameters", "Rinse" function.  

•

Unless preheated, do not use excessively thick cups as they will
absorb too much heat.

•

Preheat the cups by rinsing them with hot water. 

NOTE 4:  Coffee delivery can be interrupted at any moment by re-
pressing the previously selected icon. 
NOTE 5: As soon as delivery is finished, to increase the quantity of
coffee in the cup, just keep pressing the previously selected icon
within 3 seconds after delivery has finished. 
NOTE 6: When the appliance displays "FILL TANK!", fill the tank with
water or the appliance will not deliver coffee. 
(It is normal for there to be a little water left in the tank).
NOTE 7: After about 14 single (or 7 double) coffees, the appliance
displays "EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER!".
To clean, open the service door on the front of the appliance by pul-
ling the spout (fig. 16), extract the drip tray (fig. 17) and clean.
