descaling is still recommended every 2-3 months.
6. Do not use caramelized or flavored coffee beans.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE POWER
SUPPLY CORD
A. A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be
provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord.
B. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available
and may used if care is exercised in their use.
C. If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,
1. The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or
extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance
2. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped

PREPARING FOR USE
Machine Packaging
The original packaging has been designed and constructed to protect the
machine during transport. We recommend keeping the packaging material
for possible future transport.
Preparing for Use
Remove the co ee bean hopper lid and the drip tray with grill from the
1
packaging.
Remove the machine from the packaging.
2
For best use, it is recommended to:
3
• Choose a safe, level surface, where there will be no danger of overturning the machine or being injured.
• Choose a location that is su ciently well-lit, clean and near an easily reachable socket.
• Allow for a minimum distance from the sides of the machine as
shown in the illustration.
Insert the drip tray with grill into the machine. Make sure it is fully
4
inserted.
Note:
The drip tray collects the water that comes out of the dispensing spout
during each rinse/self-cleaning cycle, as well as any co ee that might be
spilled during beverage brewing. Empty and wash the drip tray daily and
each time the full drip tray indicator is raised.
Caution:
NEVER remove the drip tray when the machine has just been turned
on. Wait a couple of minutes for the machine to carry out a rinse/selfcleaning cycle.

USING THE MACHINE FOR THE FIRST TIME
When using the machine for the rst time, the following activities need to
happen:
1) You need to prime the circuit.
2) The machine will perform an automatic rinse/self-cleaning cycle.
3) You need to perform a manual rinse cycle.
Circuit Priming
During this process, fresh water ows through the internal circuit of the
machine and the machine warms up. This takes a few seconds.
Place a container (1L) under the steam/hot water wand or Pannarello

“INTENZA+” Water Filter Installation
We recommend you to install the “INTENZA+” water lter as this prevents
limescale build-up in your machine and preserves a more intense aroma of
your co ee.
The “INTENZA+” water lter can be purchased separately. For further details, please refer to the maintenance products page in this manual.
Water is a crucial part of every co ee, so it is very important to always have
it professionally ltered. Using the “INTENZA+” water lter will prevent
mineral deposits from building up and improve your water quality.
Remove the small white lter from the water tank and store it in a dry
1
place.
Page 18
16
ENGLISH
Remove the “INTENZA+” water lter from its packaging, immerse it ver-
2
tically (with the opening positioned upwards) in cold water and gently
press the sides so as to let the air bubbles out.
Set the “INTENZA+” water lter according to the hardness of the water
3
used:
A = Soft water
B = Hard water (standard)
C = Very hard water
Put the "INTENZA +" water lter into the empty water tank. Press it
4
down until it cannot move any further.
Steady on
Fill the water tank with fresh water and reinsert it into the machine.
5
Dispense all the water in the tank by using the hot water function (see
6
the “Dispensing Hot Water” section).
Remove the tank, ll it with fresh water up to the MAX level and place
7
it back into the machine.
When the operations described above have been completed, the “ ”
8
light shines steadily. Machine is ready to brew co ee.
Note:
We recommend replacing the "Intenza +" lter every 2 months.

ADJUSTMENTS
The machine allows for certain adjustments so that you can brew the best
tasting co ee possible.
Saeco Adapting System
Co ee is a natural product and its characteristics may change according to
its origin, blend and roast. The machine is equipped with a self-adjusting
system that allows the use of all types of co ee beans available on the
market except for raw, caramelized and avoured co ee beans. The machine automatically adjusts itself after brewing a certain number of cups of
co ee to optimise the extraction.
Adjusting the Ceramic Coff ee Grinder
Ceramic co ee grinders always guarantee accurate and perfect grinding
and coarseness for every co ee speciality.
This provides full aroma preservation, delivering a truly Italian taste in
every cup.
Warning:
Do not insert fi ngers or other objects. Only adjust the ceramic coff ee
grinder using the grinder adjustment key. The ceramic coff ee grinder
contains moving parts that may be dangerous.
You can adjust the ceramic grinders to set the co ee grinding to your
personal taste.
Warning:
You can only adjust the coff ee grinder settings when the machine is
grinding coff ee beans.
Remove the co ee bean hopper lid.
