•Packing elements (plastic bags, polystyrene etc) must not be left within reach of children as they may represent a hazard.

•Place the appliance on a work surface far away from water taps, basins and sources of heat.

•After positioning the appliance on the work top, leave a space of at least 5 cm between the surfaces of the appliance and the side and rear walls and at least 20 cm above the coffee maker.

•Never install the appliance in environments where the temperature may reach 0°C or lower (the appliance may be damaged if the water freezes).

•Make sure the mains voltage corresponds to the voltage indicated on the appliance rating plate. Connect the appliance to an efficiently earthed socket with a minimum current rating of 10A only. The manufacturer may not be considered liable for possible incidents caused by the failure to adequately earth the mains.

•If the power socket does not match the plug on the appliance, have the socket replaced with a suitable type by a qualified professional.

•The power cable on this appliance must not be replaced by the user as this operation requires the use of special tools. If the cable is damaged or requires replacing, contact an authorised service centre only to avoid all risks.

•You should personalise water hardness as soon as possible following the instructions in paragraph 12.6.

To learn how to operate the appliance correctly, when you use it for the first time, follow the step-by-step instructions given in the following paragraphs.

4 USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

1.The first time you use the appliance, select the language.

To set English, plug the appliance into the mains socket and wait for the appliance to display:

PRESS OK TO INSTALL ENGLISH

Press the

button for at least 3 seconds until the appliance displays:

ENGLISH I NSTALLED

The appliance then displays the setting message in English. If you select the wrong language by mistake, follow the instructions in section 13 to choose the right one.

2. After a few seconds, the appliance displays:

FILL TANK

To fill, remove the tank (fig. 1), rinse and fill with fresh water. Never exceed the MAX line.

(When removing the tank, the cappuccino maker must always be positioned towards the centre of the appliance, otherwise the tank cannot be removed).

Put the tank back and push as far as it will go.

3. The appliance now displays:

TURN the STEAM KNOB

24

Move the cappuccino maker outwards (fig. 2) and place a cup underneath it. Turn the steam knob anticlockwise as far as it will go (fig. 3).

After a few seconds, a little water runs out of the cappuccino maker. When the cup contains about 30cc of water, turn the steam knob clockwise (fig. 4) as far as it will go to stop the water running out.

4. The appliance now displays:

TURNING OFF PLEASE WAIT .. .

and it goes off.

5. Fill the container with coffee beans (fig. 5).

IMPORTANT: to prevent malfunction, never fill with ground coffee, freeze dried coffee, caramelised beans or anything else which could damage the appliance.

6. Press the (fig. 6), The appliance displays:

HEATING UP PLEASE WAIT ...

to indicate that preheating is underway.

7. When preheating is complete, the appliance displays:

RINSINGcomplete PLEASE WAIT ...

and performs an automatic rinse cycle (a little hot water runs out of the spouts and is collected in the drip tray beneath).

Tip: if you want to make a short coffee (less than 60 cc), to make it hotter, fill the cup with this hot rinsing water first. Leave it for a few seconds then empty it to preheat the cup.

8. The appliance now displays the ready message:

READY STANDARD TASTE

5 PREPARING COFFEE (USING COFFEE BEANS)

1.The appliance is preset to make coffee with a standard taste. You can also choose coffee with an extramild mild, strong or extra-strong taste. To choose the required taste, press the (fig. 7): The selected coffee taste will be displayed.

2.Place 1 cup under the spouts to make 1 coffee (fig. 8) or 2 cups for 2 coffees (fig. 9). For a creamier coffee, lower the spouts to bring them as close to the cups as possible (fig. 10).

3.Press the button to make a short coffee (fig. 11), the button for a standard coffee and the button for a long coffee.

To make 2 coffees, press the button twice (within 2 seconds).

To change the quantity of coffee delivered automatically into the cup, follow the instructions in chapter 6.

(The appliance now grinds the beans and starts running off the coffee into the cup.

Once the desired quantity has been reached, the appliance automatically stops delivering the coffee and ejects the grounds into the special container).

4.After a few seconds, the ready message is displayed again and you can make another coffee.

5. To turn the appliance off, press the button.

Before going off, the appliance performs an automatic rinse cycle (a little hot water runs out from the spouts and is collected in the drip tray beneath). Take care to avoid scalds.

25

NOTE 1: If the coffee is delivered a drop at a time or not at all, turn the grinding coarseness regulator (fig. 15) one click clockwise (see chapter 7).

Turn one click at a time until the coffee is delivered satisfactorily.

NOTE 2: If the coffee is delivered too fast and is not creamy enough, turn the grinding coarseness regulator (fig. 15) one click anticlockwise (see chapter 7).

Avoid turning the grinding coarseness regulator excessively otherwise when you select 2 cups, the coffee may run out in drips.

NOTE 3: Tips to make hotter coffee:

•When you turn the appliance on, if you want to make a short coffee (less than 60 cc), use the hot rinse-through water to preheat the cups.

If 2/3 minutes have passed , since you last made coffee, before making coffee again you must preheat the infuser by pressing the button (fig. 12).

Run off the water into the underlying drip tray or alternatively use this water to fill (and then empty) the cup to be used for the coffee, so as to preheat it.

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

•Use cups that have been preheated by rinsing them with hot water or by leaving them for at least 20 minutes on the cup warmer tray on top of the appliance with the appliance on.

NOTE 4: while the appliance is making the coffee, delivery can be stopped at any time by pressing the , or button as previously selected.

NOTE 5: as soon as delivery is complete, to increase the quantity of coffee, simply press and hold the , or button as previously selected, until the desired quantity is reached (this operation must

be performed within 3 seconds from when coffee delivery from the spouts ceases).

NOTE 6: when the appliance displays:

FILL TANK

the water tank must be refilled or the appliance will not make coffee.

(It is normal for there to be a little water left in the tank when the message is displayed).

NOTE 7: every 14 single coffees (or 7 doubles) the appliance displays:

EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER

indicating that the grounds container is full and must be emptied and cleaned. Until the grounds container has been cleaned, the appliance continues to display the message and cannot make coffee.

To clean, open the service door at the front by pulling the spout (fig. 13); remove the drip tray (fig. 14), empty and clean.

Empty the grounds container and clean thoroughly, making sure all residues deposited on the bottom are removed.

IMPORTANT: when removing the drip tray, the grounds container MUST be emptied, even if it is not completely full. If this is not done, when next making coffee the grounds in the container may exceed the maximum level and block the appliance.
