! The machine requires
the tank to be filled
even when the level
is still high. This
happens because the tank of the coffee machine has
been preset to house the optional “water filter”, thus
requiring a minimum level of water in the tank for
filtering to be performed.
! Always use fresh, non-sparkling water to fill the tank.
Hot water or any other liquid may damage the tank
and/or the machine. Do
not switch the machine
on without water: make

Grinding regulation
! Take care when rotating the knob that regulates
grinding, which is inside the coffee hopper. Do not put
ground and/or freeze-dried coffee in the bean hopper.
! Do not put any material other than coffee beans in
the hopper.
Switch off at the mains before carrying out any type of
operation inside the bean hopper.
The quality and flavour of coffee depend on the
grinding level, as well as the blend used.
The machine has a knob to regulate the coffee
grinding.
To regulate the grinding,
turn the knob one
setting at a time. The
figures indicate the
fineness of grinding.
The manufacturer
configures each
appliance on an
intermediate grinding
setting. If the grind is
too fine, rotate the knob
to a higher setting; if the grind is too coarse, turn the
knob to a lower setting.
The variation in grind will only be seen after one or two
coffees have been brewed.
Use coffee bean blends for espresso machines. Try
not to use high grinding settings (e.g. 1/10). Use
different coffee blends for these settings. Keep the
coffee in a fresh place in a sealed, airtight container.
Grinding must only be regulated if coffee is not brewed
properly:
• if it is brewed too fast, this means that the grind is
too coarse; turn the knob to a lower setting;
• if it is brewed in drips and/or intermittently, this
means that the grind is too fine; turn the knob to a
higher setting.
Additional information for correct use of
the water filter (where installed)
For correct use of the water filter (where installed),
here are a number of recommendations:
1. Store the water filter in a cool place away from the
sun, at a temperature of between +5°C and +40°C;
2. Use in areas with temperature no higher than 60°C;
3. It is advisable to wash the water filter if the machine
has been inactive for 3 days or more;
4. Replace filter if the machine has been inactive for
20 days or more;
5. To preserve a filter that has already been opened,
place in a plastic airtight bag and store in the
refrigerator; do not store in freezer, as this will alter
the properties of the filter;
6. Before using the filter, place in water in the tank for
30 minutes;
7. Once removed from its package, do not store filter
in the open air;
8. The filter must be replaced 90 days after it has been
removed from its package, or after it has filtered 60
litres of drinking water.
