CAUTION
This appliance is for household use only. Any servicing, other than cleaning
and user maintenance, should be performed by an authorized service center.
Do not immerse machine in water. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock,
do not disassemble the machine. There are no parts inside the machine
serviceable by the user. Repair should be done by authorized service personnel
only.
1. Check voltage to be sure that the voltage indicated on the nameplate
corresponds with your voltage.
2. Never use warm or hot water to fill the water tank. Use cold water only.
3. Keep your hands and the cord away from hot parts of the appliance during
operation.
4. Never clean with scrubbing powders or harsh cleaners. Simply use a soft
cloth dampened with water.
5. For optimal taste of your coffee, use purified or bottled water. Periodic
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
over.

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 machine from the packaging.
1
For best use, it is recommended to:
2
• 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 gure.
Open the water tank lid.
3
Remove the water tank by using the handle

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.
Open the co ee bean hopper lid.
7
Slowly pour the co ee beans into the co ee bean hopper.
8
11
11
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. If ground
co ee, instant co ee, caramelized co ee, raw co ee beans or any
other substance is put in the co ee bean hopper, it may damage the
machine.
Put the lid back on the co ee bean hopper.

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 minutes.
Place a container under the Classic Milk Frother.

Automatic Rinse/Self-Cleaning Cycle
When the warm-up phase has been completed, the machine automatically
performs a rinse/self-cleaning cycle of the internal circuits with fresh water.
This takes less than a minute.
Place a container under the co ee dispensing spout to catch the water

MEASURING AND PROGRAMMING WATER HARDNESS
Water hardness measuring is very important in order to de ne the descaling frequency and to install the “INTENZA+” water lter (for more details 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 single measurement.
Wait for one minute.

Note:
The numbers on the water hardness test strip correspond to the water
hardness.
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).
Page 19
ENGLISH

“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 user 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.
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 measurements per-
3
formed (see previous 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
Page 20
18
ENGLISH
Put the “INTENZA+” water lter into the empty water tank. Press it
4
down until it cannot move any further.
Fill the water tank with fresh water and put it into the machine.
5
Check that the " ", " ", “ ” and " " buttons are shining steadily.
6
Press the “ ” button to start dispensing hot water. The button ashes
7
during dispensing.
Dispense all water in the tank. The “ ” light shines steadily.
8
Fill the water tank again with fresh water and reinsert it into the ma-
9
chine.
When the operations described above have been completed, the " ",
10
", “ ” and " " buttons shine steadily.

Note:
The “INTENZA+” water lter must be replaced after two months of use.

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 several cups of coffee to optimize co ee extraction.
Adjusting the Ceramic Co ee Grinder
Ceramic co ee grinders always guarantee accurate and perfect grinding
and coarseness for every co ee speciality.
This technology provides full aroma preservation, delivering a truly Italian
taste in every cup.
Warning:
The ceramic co ee grinder contains moving parts that may be dangerous. Do not insert ngers or other objects. Only adjust the ceramic
co ee grinder using the grinder adjustment key.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Daily Cleaning of the Machine
Caution:
Timely cleaning and maintenance of your machine is very important
as it prolongs the life of your machine. Your machine is continuously
exposed to moisture, co ee and limescale!
The activities you need to perform and their frequency are described
in detail in this chapter. Not doing this will ultimately make your
machine stop working properly. This repair is NOT covered by your
warranty.
Note:
- Use a soft, dampened cloth to clean the machine.
- Only the cup holder grill can be washed in the dishwasher. Any other
components must be washed with lukewarm water.
- Do not immerse the machine in water.
- Do not use alcohol, solvents, and/or abrasive objects to clean the
machine.
- Do not dry the machine and/or its components using a microwave
and/or standard oven.

Daily Cleaning of the Classic Milk Frother
For hygienic reasons and to ensure a perfect milk froth consistency, it is
important that you clean the Classic Milk Frother after each use.
