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

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.
Machine installation
Remove the drip tray with grill from the packaging.
1
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 it 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.
Attach the drip tray with grill to 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 co ee that might be spilled
during beverage preparation. Empty and clean 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, since the machine will carry out a rinse/
self-cleaning cycle.
ENGLISH
Remove the water tank.

Fill the water tank with fresh water up to the MAX level and reinsert it
7
into the machine. Make sure it is fully inserted.
Caution:
Never ll the water tank with warm, hot, sparkling water or any other
liquid, as this may cause damage to the water tank and the machine.
Remove the co ee bean hopper lid and slowly pour the co ee beans
8
into the co ee bean hopper.

Note:
Do not pour too many co ee beans into the co ee bean hopper as this will
reduce the grinding performance of the machine.
Caution:
Only co ee beans must be put into the co ee bean hopper. Ground
co ee, instant co ee, caramelized co ee or any other object may
damage the machine.
Put the lid on the co ee bean hopper.

Machine water hardness setting
Measuring and programming water hardness
Measuring water hardness is very important for de ning the frequency in
which the machine has to be descaled and to install the “INTENZA+” water
lter (for more detail on the water lter see next chapter).
To measure the water hardness follow the steps below:
Immerse the water hardness test strip (supplied with the machine) in
1
water for 1 second.
Note:
The test strip can only be used for one measurement.
Wait for one minute.
2
Check how many squares have changed the colour to red and then
3
consult the table.
Note:
The numbers on the water hardness test strip correspond to the water
hardness adjustment settings.
More precisely:
1 = 1 (very soft water)
2 = 2 (soft water)
3 = 3 (hard water)
4 = 4 (very hard water)
The letters correspond to the references that are located at the base of the
“INTENZA+” water lter. (see next chapter for this).

“INTENZA+” water lter installation
We recommend you to install the “INTENZA+” water lter as this prevents
lime scale to build up in your machine and preserves a more intense aroma
to your espresso co ee.
You can purchase separately the INTENZA+ water lter. Please refer to the
maintenance products page in this user manual for further details.
Water is a crucial part of every espresso, so it’s most 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.
15
15
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 lter according to the measurements performed (see previous
3
chapter) and indicated on the base of the lter:
A = Soft water – equals 1 or 2 on the test strip
B = Hard water (standard) – equals 3 on the test strip
C = Very hard water – equals 4 on the test strip

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 (not for caramelized beans).
The machine automatically adjusts itself after brewing several cups of
co ee to optimize the extraction of the co ee to the compactness of the
ground co ee.
Adjusting pre-brewing
During prebrewing, ground co ee is moistened. This will ensures a better
co ee aroma.
Refer to the “Programming” chapter to select the prebrewing settings.
Adjusting the ceramic co ee grinder
Ceramic co ee grinders always guarantee accurate grinding for every coffee blend and prevent the beans from overheating.
This provides for full aroma preservation, delivering the truly Italian taste in
every cup.
Warning:
The ceramic co ee grinder contains moving parts that may be dangerous. Therefore, do not insert ngers and/ or other objects. Only adjust
the ceramic co ee grinder using the grinder adjustment key. Turn
o the machine by pressing the ON/OFF button and remove the plug
from the socket before carrying out any type of operation inside the
co ee bean hopper.
You can adjust the ceramic grinders to set the co ee grinding to your
personal taste.
Warning:
The grinder adjustment knob, inside the co ee bean hopper, must be
turned only when the ceramic co ee grinder is working.
This adjustment can be carried out by pressing and turning the grinder
adjustment knob inside the co ee bean hopper, using the grinder adjustment key provided with the machine.
1
2
ENGLISH
Press and turn the grinder adjustment knob one notch at a time. You
1
will taste the di erence after brewing 2-3 cups of espresso.
The reference marks inside the co ee bean hopper indicate the grind
2
setting. There are 5 di erent grind settings to choose from:
1 - Coarse grind: lighter taste, for dark roasted co ee blends
to
2 - Fine grind: bolder taste, for light roasted co ee blends
When you adjust the ceramic co ee grinder to a ner setting, your co ee
will taste stronger. For a milder co ee taste, adjust the ceramic co ee
grinder to a coarser setting.

Adjusting the aroma (co ee strength)
Choose your favorite co ee blend and adjust the amount of co ee to be
grounded until they meet your personal taste. You can also select the preground co ee function.
