2 Coffee and espresso
Your fully automated coffee machine
guarantees you
• Absolute ease of operation, both in
making coffee and in maintenance and
care
The excellent, individual taste is
achieved by
• The pre-brewing system: before the
coffee is brewed, it is first moistened to
extract its full aroma
• The individually controllable amount of
water per cup, from a short espresso to
a "long" milky coffee
• The individually controllable temperature, at which the coffee is made
• The choice between a normal or a
strong cup of coffee
• The grinding texture – adjustable to
the roast of the coffee beans, and
• Last, but not least, the guaranteed
crema, that small crown of froth that
makes espresso-coffee so unmatchable for connoisseurs
Did you know? The time the water is
in contact with the ground coffee is
considerably less for espresso coffee
than conventional filter coffee. As a
result, less bitterness is released from
the ground coffee– making espressocoffee that much milder!
3 Safety Information
This appliance corresponds to accepted
1
technological standards with regards
to safety and to the German Appliance
Safety Law. As the manufacturer, we
nevertheless wish to familiarise you
with the following safety information.
General safety

grounds container" indicator (Fig. 3, h)
flashes for about 1 minute as a
reminder. If you switch the coffee
machine off with the "On/Off" key (Fig.
3, f) while a function is running,
all functions are immediately switched
off.
4.5 Setting the Water Hardness
After first placing the machine in use
or when using a different water quality
you should set the machine to the
water hardness level corresponding to
the local water hardness. You can use
the included test card to determine the
water hardness, or contact your local
water supply company.

7 Frothing Milk
The steam can be used to froth milk
and to heat liquids. Since a higher
temperature is needed to produce
steam than to make coffee, the coffee
machine has an additional steam
mode.
To make a cappuccino, fill a large cup
3
1/2 to 2/3 full with espresso, and then
add the frothed milk.
Caution! Danger of scalding when the
1
steam nozzle is activated! Hot water or
steam output can cause scalding. Do
not activate the steam nozzle until it is
immersed in the milk.
0 To produce steam, press the "Steam
Pre-selector" key (Fig. 3, e) . The
indicator illuminates, at the same time
the "Coffee machine heating" indicator
(Fig. 3, g) flashes. When the heating
process is finished, the indicator
changes from flashing to constantly
on. The coffee machine is now ready
for frothing milk.
If the steam function is left unused for
3
more than 1 minute, the coffee
machine automatically changes back
to coffee-making mode.
0 Pour low-fat, cold milk into a mug
which must be small enough to fit
under the steam nozzle.
The milk should be cold. You should
3
also use a cold mug, preferably a stainless steel one which should not be
rinsed beforehand in hot water.
0 Swing out the steam nozzle and hold
the mug under the steam nozzle so
that the nozzzle opening is just
immersed in the milk.
36
g
Attention! Impurities from dried milk
1
residues in the steam nozzle. Take care
not to immerse the steam nozzle in the
milk far enough to cover the air intake
opening at the top of the steam nozzle.
Otherwise milk can be sucked into the
nozzle and cause impurities in the
steam nozzle.
0 Turn the Selection dial for steam and
hot water (Fig. 1, D) to the position (Fig. 17). The milk is now frothed
up.
Hold the mug steady during the froth-
3
ing. The nozzle should not be allowed
to touch the bottom of the mug and
cut off the steam supply. Froth the milk
to at least twice its volume.
0 To stop frothing, turn the Selection dial
for steam and hot water (Fig. 1, D) to

making coffee again.
0 Each time you have frothed milk, let
off some hot water through the nozzle
for a short time by setting the Selection dial for steam and hot water (Fig.
1, D) to the position. This is necessary to prevent milk residues drying
inside the nozzle, and thereby blocking
it. Use a suitable container to catch the
water.
0 Remove the frothing aid after each use
(Fig. 18). For this, take hold of the
frothing aid by the black seal and disengage the bayonet connector by
turning it slightly anticlockwise. Rinse
off the milk residues under running
water. Wipe the steam nozzle off with
a damp cloth.
Caution! Danger of burns from the
1
frothing aid! Hold the frothing aid only
by the black seal.
8 Preparing Hot Water
The hot water can be used to pre-heat
cups and for making hot drinks, e.g. tea
or instant soups.
Caution! Danger of scalding when the
1
hot water nozzle is activated! Hot
water or steam output can cause
scalding. Activate the hot water nozzle
only when a container is under the hot
water nozzle.
0 Place a container under the hot water
nozzle. Set the Selection dial for steam
and hot water (Fig. 1, D) to the
position (Fig. 19). Hot water is now
prepared.
0 After you have dispensed the hot water
turn the Selection dial for steam and
hot water (Fig. 1, D) back to the
position (Fig. 19) and remove the container.

change the measures for the other cup
symbols.
The machine switches off automati-
3
cally on reaching the max. Cup Measure. The saved measures remain stored
when the coffee machine is switched
off. If your coffee cups or your taste
change, you can easily change the cup
measure(s) to your new requirements,
whenever you want.
10 Changing and Saving the
Coffee Quantity
You can set and save a different coffee
quantity for each cup symbol to your
individual requirements. This can be

15 Cleaning and Care
To ensure consistent coffee quality and
faultless operation, always keep your
coffee machine clean.
15.1 Regular Cleaning
Caution! Before cleaning, switch off
1
the coffee machine and allow it to cool
down. Do not use any abrasive, scouring or corrosive cleaning materials.
Wipe the inside and outside of the case
only with a damp cloth.
Note! Never put the coffee machine or
1
separate parts of the coffee machine in
the dishwasher.
Note! Never put water in the coffee
1
bean container, as this would damage
the grinder.
0 Remove the water tank daily (Fig. 7)
and empty any remaining water away.
Rinse out the water tank with fresh
water. Use fresh water every day.
0 Empty the coffee grounds container
daily, see „Emptying the Coffee
Grounds Container" page 40.
0 Regularly drain the drip tray. This can
be done at any time, but must be done
when the red Drip tray float (Fig. 1, I)
appears through the opening in the
drip grille.
0 Regularly (at least once per week)
clean the Water tank (Fig. 1, M), Drip
tray (Fig. 1, J), Drip grille (Fig. 1, H) and
Coffee grounds container (Fig. 1, G)
with warm water, a mild washing up
liquid and possibly a brush.
0 From time to time, remove the coffee
bean container and clear away any residues.
0 Each time the machine is used for
frothing, remove the frothing aid and
clean off any milk remains. The air
intake opening under the seal must not
become blocked. This can be cleaned
out with a thin needle.
15.2 Cleaning the height adjustment
0 If the height adjustment of the coffee
dispenser becomes stiff, remove the
coffee grounds container, open the
service cover and remove it. Slide the
height adjuster right down, and off the
bottom. To do this, gently raise the
inside catch. Use warm water to clean
any coffee residues from both parts.
Reassemble the two parts. To do this,
gently pull up the catch. Check the
ease of movement of the height
adjuster. Refit the service cover and
push the grounds container back in
place.
15.3 Emptying the Coffee Grounds
Container
At regular intervals, after every 16 coffee brews "1 cup“ resp. 8 coffee brews
"2 cups“, the "Empty grounds container" indicator (Fig. 3, h) signals
that the container has to be emptied
and cleaned.
0 When the coffee machine is in daily
use, empty the container daily. The
indicator flashes for around 1 minute
each time the machine is switched off,
as a reminder to do this.
40
g
Always empty the grounds container
3
with the coffee machine switched on,
otherwise the coffee machine does not
register that the container has been
emptied.
15.4 Cleaning the Grinder
Use the supplied brush to remove
ground coffee residues.
Note! Never put water in the grinder.
1
This would damage the grinder.
0 Press the "On/Off" key (Fig. 3, f) to
switch off the coffee machine. Unplug
from the mains socket.
0 Turn the bean container so that the
mark is at the "Unlock Container" position and remove the container
(Fig. 23).
0 Remove any remaining coffee beans
(you could use the vacuum cleaner
with the hose or crevice tool attachment for this).
If a foreign body is impossible to
3
remove, take off the grinding ring.
0 To do this, proceed as follows (Fig. 24):
1. Push the Release catch for removing
grinding ring (Fig. 2, T) forward toward
the centre of the grinder.
2. Keep it in this position and turn the
Lever for setting grinding texture (Fig.

grinding ring (Fig. 2, T) is pressed.
0 Now release the grinding ring (Fig. 25)
and remove the foreign body or bodies.
Caution! Risk of injury from the spin-
1
ning grinder. Never switch the coffee
machine on, when you are working on
the grinder. This can lead to severe
injuries. Before starting work, ensure
that the machine is unplugged from
the mains socket.
When refitting the grinding ring,
3
ensure that both catches on the grinding ring holder engage in the corresponding slots (Fig. 25).
Failure to do this can lead to damage
to the grinder.

ture (Fig. 2, U) approximately one full
turn anticlockwise until it comes up
against the stop.
0 Set the bean container in place at the
"Unlock Container" position , and
turn it back to the "Coffee Beans" position .
0 Add a small quantity of coffee beans,
and test the proper operation of the
grinder by making a cup of coffee. The
first time the grinder is used, or after
cleaning, less ground coffee will enter
the coffee-making unit, because the
channel first has to be filled. This can
influence the first cup of coffee.
15.5 Cleaning the Coffee-making Unit
We advise you to clean the coffeemaking unit regularly (depending on
how frequently it is used). It should be
cleaned before you start the cleaning
