1 IMPRESSA C9

Coffee that fulfils your wildest dreams

The new entry level model in the One Touch Cappuccino league is sure to please all cappucino fans with its simple ‘touch of a button’ function without having to move the cup. In elegant piano black and with a new user interface, the high-quality IMPRESSA C9 is fully in keeping with current trends and exudes an aura of superiority, dur ability and competence. It impressively demonstrates these attribut es with each coffee speciality that you enjoy.

Z One Touch Cappuccino: Your IMPRESSA C9 makes a cup of

cappuccino at the touch of a button, without you having to

move the cup. Hot milk foam, flowing int o the cup and slowly

starting to fill it. Steam which rises, awakening the anticipa-

tion of a delicious speciality. Aromatic coffee, blending with

the milk, pushing up the milk foam topping. These are the

protagonists in a sensuous drama – the drama of perfect cof-

fee preparation.

Z Simple operation: With the clearly arranged control elements

and the easy-to-understand text and graphic display, opera-

tion of the IMPRESSA C9 is also simple for beginners. Y ou can

navigate effectively through the individual programme steps

by simply turning and pressing the Rotary Switch. The focus

is on your personal taste. Simply select the coffee strength,

amount of water and temperature according to yo ur individ-

ual preferences.

Z Energy-saving mode (Energy Save Mode, E.S.M.© ): The

IMPRESSA C9 actively assists you in saving energy. With the

energy-saving mode you can adjust the energy-saving poten-

tial to suit the way you like to enjoy your beverages. The

machine can be completely disconnected from the power

supply at the main switch – for instance if you are going to be

absent for some time.

Z Height-adjustable coffee spout: The height of the coffee

spout, which can be adjusted within a range of 65 to 111 mm, can be adapted to all cup sizes on a continuous scale. This prevents coffee splashing on the machine and is your guarantee for a rich, thick crema.

HEATING appears on the display, then READY is dis-

played. The filter is now activated.

Determining water hardness and adjusting

E However, if you are using the CLARIS filter cartridge and have

activated it, you will not be able to adjust the water hardness.

The harder the water is, the more frequently the IMPRESSA needs to be descaled. It is therefore important to adjust the water hardness.

The water hardness can be adjusted on a continuous scale between 1° dH and 30° dH. This can also be deactivated, which means that the IMPRESSA will not let you know when it has to be descaled. You can find out what the w at er hardness is by using the Aquadur® test strip supplied as standard.

T Hold the test strip briefly (for one second) under flowing

water. Shake off the water. T Wait for about one minute. T You will then be able to read the degree of water hardness

from the discolouration of the Aquadur® test strip and the

description on the packaging.

You can now adjust the water hardness.

Example: To change the water hardness from

16°dH to

25°dH, proceed as follows:

Precondition:

k T Keep the Rotary Switch pressed until

READY is displayed.

T Close the cover of the Rotary Switch.

Adjusting the grinder

CAUTION

You can adjust the grinder continuously to suit the roast of y our coffee.

If you adjust the fineness of grind when the grinder is not operating, the grinding wheel could be damaged.

T Only adjust the fineness of grind when the grinder is run -

ning.

The fineness of grind setting is correct if the coffee flows regularly from the coffee spout. A fine, thick crema is also formed. Our recommendations:

Z Select a fine setting for a light roast.

U If the fineness of grind setting is too fine, the coffee only

drips from the coffee spout.

Z Select a coarse setting for a darker roast.

U If the fineness of grind is too coarse the coffee flows too

quickly from the coffee spout.

Example: T o change the fineness of grind during coffee preparation, proceed as follows:

T Open the cover of the bean container. T Remove the aroma preservation cover. T Place a cup under the coffee spout.

2 Preparing and using your IMPRESSA for the first time

o T Press the Coffee button.
