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
Page 18
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.

Descaling
Limescale is a natural part of the water used for the machine operation. It
needs to be removed regularly as it may clog the water and co ee circuit of
your appliance.
This is an easy procedure with your Philips-Saeco machine.
The advanced electronics tells you on the display of the machine (in clear
symbols) when descaling is needed. Just follow the steps described below.
Not doing this will ultimately make your appliance stop working properly,
and in this case repair is not covered under your warranty.
Note: Empty the drip tray before performing the descaling cycle.
Use the Saeco descaling product only. Its formula has been designed to
ensure better machine performance and operation for its whole operating
life. If correctly used, it also avoids alterations in the brewed product. The
descaling solution and the complete "Maintenance Kit" may be purchased
at your local dealer, at the Philips on-line shop at http://shop.philips.com or
at authorised service centres.
