1. IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the
following.

• Read all instructions carefully.

• Make sure the voltage of your electrical system corresponds to the voltage shown on the bottom

of the machine.

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

• To protect against re, electrical shock and personal injury, do not immerse cord, plug or appli-

ance in water or other liquid.

• Keep the appliance out of the reach of children and do not leave appliance unattended while in

operation.

• Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning.

• Do not operate with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been

damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for ex­amination, repair or adjustment.

• The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may result in re,

electrical shock, or personal injury.

• Do not use outdoors.

• Make sure the power cord does not hang over the edge of the table or counter-top to avoid

getting accidentally caught or entangled.

•

Do not place the appliance or its electrical parts on or near electric stoves, cooking surfaces, or gas burners.

• Plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, rst turn machine “o”, then remove plug from wall

outlet.

• Do not use the appliance for other than the intended use. This appliance is to be utilized for

domestic use only. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage caused by im­proper, incorrect, or irresponsible use.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of re or electric shock, do not remove the cover or the exterior of
the unit. Don’t attempt to repair or modify the machine, doing so will void the warranty. Repair
should be done by authorized service personnel only!

1.1 Short cord instructions

- A short power cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a

longer cord.

- Longer, detachable power supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exer-

cised in their use.

- If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the electrical rating

of the appliance. If the appliance is provided with 3- wire, grounding type cord, the extension should be
a GROUNDING TYPE 3 - WIRE CORD. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
counter-top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

- Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider

than the other). This plug will t into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to t,
contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized
plug.

4. PRELIMINARY CHECKS

4.1 Checking the appliance

After removing the packaging, make sure the product is com­plete and undamaged and that all accessories are present.
Do not use the appliance if it is visibly damaged.
Contact De’Longhi Customer Services.

4.2 Installing the appliance

Important!

When you install the appliance, you should respect the follow­ing safety warnings:

• The appliance gives o heat. After positioning the appli-

ance on the worktop, leave a space of at least 1.18 in/ 3
cm between the surfaces of the appliance and the side and
rear walls and at least 6 in/ 15 cm above the coee maker.

• Water penetrating the appliance could cause damage. Do

not place the appliance near taps or sinks.

• The appliance could be damaged if the water it contains

freezes. Do not install the appliance in a room where the
temperature could drop below freezing point.

• Arrange the power cable in such a way that it cannot be
damaged by sharp edges or contact with hot surfaces (e.g.
electric hot plates).

4.3 Connecting the appliance

Important!

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 eciently 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 qualied
professional.

4.4 Using the appliance for the rst time

Please note :

• Coee has been used to factory test the appliance and it is
therefore completely normal for there to be traces of coee
in the mill.

The machine is, however, guaranteed to be new.

• To avoid malfunctions, never ll with ground coee,
freeze-dried coee or caramelized beans, or other objects
that may damage the machine.

• You should customise water hardness as soon as possible
following the instructions in the section “15. SETTING
WATER HARDNESS” .

1. Remove the water tank (Fig.1), rinse it and ll it with fresh
water, never exceeding the MAX line. When removing the
tank, the milk frother must always be positioned towards
the center of the machine, otherwise the tank cannot be
removed. Replace the tank, pushing it all the way in.

2. Open the lid on the coee bean container (Fig.2). Fill the
container with coee beans. Close the lid.

3. Plug the appliance into the mains socket.

4. Move the milk frother towards the outside and place a cup
underneath (Fig.3). Then turn the machine on by pressing
the button (Fig.4).

5. IMMEDIATELY AFTER, WITHIN A MAXIMUM OF 30 SECONDS,
turn the steam knob counter-clockwise until it stops (Fig.5)
(it is normal for the machine to make some noise).

6. Wait for the and lights to stop ashing. The
ashing lights indicate the machine is preheating. Before
the lights stop ashing the machine will automatically
perform a rinse cycle and a little hot water will release
from the coee spouts and collect in the drip tray. Once
the lights illuminate steadily, the machine has reached the
ideal temperature for making coee.
