;
Cleaning and Storing the Machine
Keep the machine at its best, clean and store it properly. Since the machine uses natural ingredients to brew beverages (co ee beans, water, milk, etc.), some residues of ground co ee or condensed wa­ter could be present on its supporting surface. For this reason we recom­mend to periodically clean both the visible parts of the machine and the area beneath it. Before storing the machine we strongly recommend to clean it:
- Water left in the tank and/or in the water circuit for several days should not be consumed. If the machine is going to remain inactive for a long time, dispense water as described in the “Hot Water Dispensing” sec­tion.
- Turn o the power button and clean the machine. Finally, remove the plug from the socket. Wait for the machine to cool down.
Never immerse the machine in water! Store it in a dry place, out of the reach of children. Keep it protected from dust and dirt. It is strictly forbidden to tamper with the internal parts of the machine.
Malfunction
In case of failure, problems or a suspected fault resulting from the falling of the machine, immediately remove the plug from the socket. Never attempt to operate a faulty machine. For further information on troubleshooting and service, please refer to the "Troubleshooting" and "Service" chapters.
Fire Safety Precautions
In case of  re, use carbon dioxide (CO2) extinguishers. Do not use water or dry powder extinguishers.

Espresso Co ee: Brewing and Adjustments
The machine you have bought works with co ee beans and/or pre-ground co ee. It allows for certain adjustments that will permit you to use it to its full potential and get a complete "Espresso experience". Saeco Adapting System: An intelligent self-adjusting system that allows the use of all types of co ee beans available on the market. Co ee is a natural product and its characteristics may change according to its origin, blend and roast. The Saeco co ee machine is equipped with a self-adjusting system that allows the use of all types of co ee beans avail­able on the market (non caramelised).
• The machine automatically adjusts itself in order to optimise the extraction of the co ee, ensuring perfect compression of the tablet to obtain a creamy espresso co ee that will release all the aromas, regard­less of the type of co ee used.
• The optimisation process is a learning process that requires the brew­ing of a certain number of co ee cups to allow the machine to adjust the compactness of the ground co ee.
• Attention should be given to special blends, which require grinder ad­justments in order to optimise the extraction of co ee - (see “Adjusting the Co ee Grinder” section”).
Pre-brewing Technology: Enhancing the Aroma
Thanks to the Pre-brewing Technology, ground co ee is moistened before the actual brewing process, ensuring that the aroma can unfold even bet­ter.
Adjustable Ceramic Co ee Grinder: A Full Aroma Preservation
The ceramic grinders always guarantee accurate grinding for every co ee blend. In addition, this technology prevents the beans from overheating. These two combined factors provide for a full aroma preservation, deliver­ing the truly Italian taste in every cup.
Warning! The grinder adjustment knob, which is placed inside the cof­fee bean hopper, must be turned with the Co ee grinder adjustment key only when the co ee grinder is working. Do not put any material other than co ee beans into the hopper. Do not pour ground and/or instant co ee into the co ee bean hopper.
Warning: The co ee grinder contains moving parts that may be dangerous. Therefore, do not insert  ngers and/or other objects. In case of malfunc­tion, turn o the appliance 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. Do not pour co ee beans when the co ee grinder is working.
The machine allows you to make slight adjustments to the co ee grinder to adapt it to the kind of co ee used. The adjustment must be performed by means of the pin located inside the
16
ENGLISH
co ee bean hopper. This must be pressed and turned using the supplied key only.
Press and turn the pin one notch at a time and brew 2-3 cups of co ee; this is the only way to notice di erences in grind.
The reference marks inside the co ee bean hopper indicate the grind set­ting. There are 5 di erent grind settings to choose from with the following references:
1
2
1 - Coarse Grind: Lighter taste, for dark roasted co ee blends; 2 - Fine Grind: Bolder Taste, for light roasted co ee blends.
"Aroma" Adjustment: Select Your Favourite Amount
Choose your favourite co ee blend and adjust the amount of co ee to be ground until they meet your personal taste. The machine is set-up to adjust the amount according to the co ee to be ground.
Four choices are possible by pressing and releasing the " medium or strong aroma, and pre-ground co ee.
Selection can be made when the beans appear on the display. Each time the " one degree, according to the selected amount:
= Mild aroma = Medium aroma = Strong aroma
GreenGreen
Note: Selection must be made prior to select co ee. The system sets the aroma according to the personal taste of the user.
After selecting "Strong aroma", the function for brewing co ee with pre­ground co ee is displayed.
" button is pressed and released, the aroma changes by
" button: Mild,
This selection is displayed by the icon on the side.
