3. SETTING UP THE APPLIANCE

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.

• You should customise water hardness as soon as possible following the instructions in section “19. Setting water hardness”.

• The control panel (B) can be swivelled to make sure the homepage is always visible.

1. Plug the power cord connector (C6) into the socket (A13) at the back of the appliance and connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply (g. 1). Make sure the main switch (A12) at the back of the appliance is pressed (g. 2);

6.4 Adjust mill

The appliance has two coee mills corresponding to beans containers (I) (A4) and (II) (A6). The coee mills are set by default to prepare coee correctly and should not require regulating initially. However, if after making the rst few coees you nd that the coee is either too weak and not creamy enough or delivery is too slow (a drop at a time), they can be adjusted. Proceed as follows:

1. Press the settings menu (B6);

2. Select "Adjust mill". A tutorial is displayed with suggestions on the grinding level; if you want to skip this presentation, press "Skip" or "Next" to continue with the tutorial;

3. "Select mill [I] or [II] and adjust coarseness within the available range":

• Select the mill you want to adjust ( or );

• Follow the previous instructions in the tutorial to select the required grinding neness by pressing directly on one of the selectable numbers in the highlighted interval;

4. Press "OK": "The result in the cup will be perceived after about 5 deliveries";

5. To implement the adjustment, press OK and deliver 5 coffee beverages using the mill selected at point 3.

Please note!

• After carrying out the above procedure, we recommend delivering at least 5 coees before adjusting again. If coffee delivery is still not correct, repeat the procedure.

• You cannot adjust more than one grinding level at a time unless at least two coee-based beverages have been made using the coee mill selected in point 3.

• To reset the mill to the default values (shown with a star), press "Default" and deliver 5 coee beverages.
