The following message will then appear:

Heating phase

If the automatic Rinsing programme option has been set to "On" (factory default setting), the following will appear after the machine has heated up:

Rinsing

Water will run out of the central spout.

To prevent water from

running into the drip tray,

always place an empty cup or the small cleaning container under the central spout before making the first drink.

Pre-warming cups

The cups should always be pre-warmed to allow the flavour to develop and be retained. The aroma of espresso does not react well to cold. The smaller the volume of coffee/espresso and the thicker the cup, the more important it is to pre-warm the cup. Use a plate warming drawer if you have one. If not, you can warm them as follows:

Place the cup to be warmed under

the hot water spout.

^ Touch the Hot water sensor. ^ Run a little hot water into the cup to

warm it.

^ Touch the OK sensor to stop the flow

of water.

^ Leave the cup for about a minute

until it is warm, then pour the water away.

The main menu will then appear in the display:

Espresso

q r HI J L n m C

Adjusting the height of the central spout

The height of the central spout can be adjusted to suit the height of the cup so that the drink will not cool down as quickly as it would if the spout were further away from the cup. The crema will also be a better quality if the coffee does not have so far to go!

^ Slowly pull the central spout

downwards.

Making drinks

Place a cup under the central spout.

The coffee is always dispensed simultaneously from both spouts.

Espresso

q r HI J L n m C

^ Select the type of coffee you want

Preparing espresso and coffee from freshly ground beans

You can programme the size

of portion dispensed for

espresso and coffee according to taste (see "Programming the amount: setting the portion sizes").

Espresso, coffee, double espresso and double coffee are all dispensed in the same way:

The machine will now grind the coffee beans, pre-brew the ground coffee (if the "Pre-brewing" option has been set to "On") and the coffee will then be dispensed from the coffee spouts.

Do not open the machine door during the brewing process. This will damage the machine.

To ensure that any coffee residues from the factory testing process are removed from the brewing system, please throw away the first two cups of coffee.

Making drinks

Double portion

If you want to dispense a double portion of coffee or espresso or to dispense two portions at the same time:

touch the OK sensor a second time

whilst "2 portions?" is in the display.

The two portions will be dispensed one after the other.

^ To prepare two cups at the same

time, place one cup under each jet.

Cancelling preparation

Touch the OK sensor when "Stop" is showing in the display.

Preparation will be halted.

Making espresso and coffee using ready ground coffee

Adding ready ground coffee

If you want to make espresso or coffee using ready ground coffee, you can add ground coffee to the specially designed coffee chute.

^ Pull the cover for the coffee chute

right out of the machine and open up the lid (a) to the chute.

^ Use the scoop supplied and place

one level scoop of ground coffee into the coffee chute (b). Close the lid.

Push the cover into the machine and close the machine door.

Make the coffee?

Yes

Use the arrow sensor to highlight "Yes".

The display will change to the main menu and you can select the drink you want.

Making drinks

If you not added any ground

coffee, you must select "No".

Otherwise the machine will assume that there is ground coffee in the chute, and only water will be dispensed the next time coffee is made!

To make a drink

Place a cup under the central spout.

Touch the OK sensor.

The machine will prepare espresso or coffee, which will then be dispensed from the central spout.

Do not open the machine door during the brewing process. This will damage the machine. At the end of the process, the coffee machine will revert automatically to

making coffee with coffee beans.

Cancelling preparation

Touch the OK sensor.

Drinks with milk

Stainless steel milk flask

If using animal milk, only use only pasteurised milk to avoid a build-up of bacteria.

The stainless steel milk flask is vacuum insulated to keep the milk cold for a period of time. With an ambient temperature of about 20 °C, milk at 6 °C can be stored for 11-12 hours and remain under 13 °C. (Milk that is warmer than 13 °C should not be used because it will not make good milk froth).

Milk cannot be stored for as long as 11-12 hours if there is a warming drawer underneath the coffee machine.

Do not fill the stainless steel milk flask to the rim. You need to leave a gap of at least 2 -3 cm below the rim.

Preparation will be halted.

Only one portion can be prepared at a time when using ready ground coffee. This is because the machine will use all the ground coffee which has been added to the chute to prepare one coffee.

It is important to keep the top of the flask and the seals clean (whilst filling it and carrying it). Any soiling can lead to a malfunction of the flask in the machine.

It is important to pre-heat the cup with hot water

before making your drink.

Making drinks

To make drinks with milk,

place the lid on the stainless steel

milk flask by twisting it anticlockwise until it locks into place.

^ Open the machine door and hang the

milk flask in the machine as illustrated, ensuring that the milk pipework is correctly engaged.

Cappuccino, latte macchiato, hot milk, milk froth

Place a suitable cup or glass under

both jets.

For best results with latte macchiato, the glass should

be placed beneath the jets such that the espresso flows into the centre of the milk froth.

Cappuccino

After use

If you have made a drink with milk, the following message appears in the display after two minutes:

i Start the rinsing programme

Touch the OK sensor.

The milk pipework will now be rinsed.

Even if you do not confirm the message with "OK", the coffee machine will automatically rinse the milk pipework after a few minutes.

Before switching the machine off for any length of time, the pipework, brew system, spouts and milk pipework need to be cleaned (see "Cleaning and care: Rinse the system" and "Clean milk pipework").

A large user profile symbol n will now appear in the display to show that a user

profile has been selected.

This function operates in the same way as a standard profile.

Setting the coffee grinder

A good espresso or coffee with a thick, even crema depends not only on the quality, pressure and temperature of the water and the quality of the coffee beans, but also on the quantity of beans and how finely they are ground.

The crema should have an even nut-brown colour with dark stripes running through it.

You can set the amount of coffee beans to be ground in the main menu (see "Settings: Customising your machine Setting the amount of coffee").

Always adjust the amount of beans to be ground one stage at a time only and then let the machine grind this quantity before adjusting the amount again. Otherwise the machine will be damaged.

There are various ways to tell whether the coffee grinder is set correctly:

Espresso or coffee flows into the cup too quickly

The beans have been ground too coarsely and the pressure is not sufficient. Set the grinder on a finer setting.

Espresso or coffee only trickles into the cup

The crema is evenly coloured but pale

The beans have been ground too coarsely. Set the grinder on a finer setting.

The crema is very dark brown on one side, graduating almost to white on the other

The beans have been ground too finely. Set the grinder on a coarser setting.

To alter the grinder setting

^ Push the slide control one setting to

the left (for finer grinding) or one setting to the right (for coarser grinding).

You should be able to feel the notches when moving the slide control.

If the slide control refuses to move, close the machine and dispense a cup of espresso coffee.

Then try the slide control again.

The beans have been ground too finely and the coffee will be bitter. Set the grinder on a coarser setting.
