SAFETY WARNINGS

• This appliance is designed and made to "prepa­re coffee". Be careful to avoid being scalded by
spraying water or steam or due to improper use
of the appliance.

• This appliance is intended for domestic use only.
Any other use is considered improper and thus
dangerous.

• The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for
any damage caused through incorrect, wrong or
unreasonable use.

• When using the appliance, do not touch the hot
surfaces. Use the knobs or handles.

• Never touch the appliance with wet or damp
hands or feet.

• In the event of failure or malfunction, unplug the
appliance from the mains. If it requires repair,
contact De'Longhi customer services or a service
center authorised by the manifacturer and ask
for original spare parts to be used. Failure to
respect the above could reduce the safety of the
appliance.

• The power cable must never be replaced by the
user as this requires the use of special tools. If
the cable is damaged or requires replacing,
contact De'Longhi customer services only to
avoid all risks.

• Do not allow the appliance to be used by per­sons (including children) with psychological,
physical or sensory impairments or with inade­quate experience or knowledge, unless closely
supervised and instructed by someone responsi­ble for their safety.
Children must be supervised to ensure they do
not play with the appliance.

• After unpacking, make sure that the machine

is complete and undamaged. In case of doubt,
do not use the appliance and seek the advice
of a qualified service professional.

• Packaging materials (plastic bags, foam poly-

styrene, etc.) should not be left within the
reach of children as this could be a potential
source of danger.

• Never immerse the appliance in water.

• When the appliance is not in use, turn off and

disconnect the plug from the socket.

• As with any electrical appliance, whilst the

instructions aim to cover as many eventualities
as possible, caution and common sense should
be applied when operating your appliance,
particularly in the vicinity of young children.

• The appliance is designed and produced for

domestic use only. It is not suitable for use in:

- staff kitchens in shops, offices and other

workplaces,

- farm houses,

- hotels, motels or other holiday accommoda
tion,

- guest houses.

• Materials and accessories coming into contact
with food conform to EEC regulation No.
1935/2004.

A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incorporate a 13

Amp fuse. If it does not fit your socket, the plug should be cut off
from the mains lead, and an appropriate plug fitted, as below.
WARNING: Very carefully dispose of the cut off plug after remo­ving the fuse: do not insert in a 13 Amp socket elsewhere in the
house as this could cause a shock hazard.
With alternative plugs not incorporating a fuse, the circuit must
be protected by a 15 Amp fuse.
If the plug is a moulded-on type, the fuse cover must be re-fitted
when changing the fuse using a 13 Amp Asta approved fuse to
BS 1362. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must NOT
be used until a replacement fuse cover can be obtained from your
nearest electrical dealer. The colour of the correct replacement
fuse cover is that as marked on the base of the plug.

B) If your appliance is not fitted with a plug, please follow the

instructions provided below:

WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

foam, etc.) should be kept out of reach of children
as they are a safety 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

use of special tools.
If the cable is damaged or requires replacing, con­tact De'Longhi customer services only to avoid all

HOW TO PREPARE DRIP COFFEE

IMPORTANT: the first time the appliance is used,
all accessories and the internal circuits must be
washed through by making at least two jugs of
coffee without using ground coffee.

• Open the door (fig. 2) at the front by pulling

the handle and use the jug to pour clean cold
water into the water fill compartment up to the
level indicated for the number of cups of coffee
to be prepared. Check the level of water in the
tank through the level window. You are recom­mended to use the jug provided as a measure
as the maximum capacity of the jug and the
tank are the same (fig. 3).

• Position the permanent filter (if present) in the

filter holder (fig. 4). In versions without perma­nent filter, use the paper filter.

• Place the ground coffee in the filter, using the

measuring spoon supplied, and level evenly
(fig. 5).
See table 1 for recommended quantities.
Use good quality, medium-ground coffee for
drip coffee makers.
