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 (external) with grill to the machine. Make sure it is
4
placed correctly.
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
Open the lid and remove the water tank by the handle.
5
Rinse the water tank under fresh water.
6
Fill the tank with fresh water up to the MAX level and re-insert it into
7
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 lid of the co ee bean hopper and take out the inner lid.
8
9
9
Slowly pour co ee beans into the hopper. Put the inner lid back and
9
close the lid.
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.

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 provided with the machine in
1
water for 1 second.
Note:
The test strip can only be used for one measurement.
Wait for one minute.

“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
ordering maintenance products chapter 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.
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
Put the lter into the empty water tank. Press it until it cannot move

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 the ceramic co ee grinder
Ceramic co ee grinders always guarantee accurate grinding for every
co ee 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. 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.
Open the lid of the co ee bean hopper.
1
ENGLISH
Press and turn the grinder adjustment knob one notch at a time. You
2
will taste the di erence after brewing 2-3 cups of espresso.
The reference marks on the co ee bean hopper lid indicate the grind
3
setting. There are 8 di erent grind settings to choose from:
19
19
- Very coarse grind (
) : lighter taste, for dark roasted co ee blends
To
- Very ne 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.
Note:
Selection must be made prior to selecting co ee.
CAPPUCCINO
COFFEE QUANTITY

To temporarily change the amount of co ee ground, press the “ ”
1
button on the control panel.
The aroma changes by one degree, according to the selected amount:
2
= mild dose

= The beverage is brewed by using the pre-ground co ee
Adjusting the dispensing spout
The height of the dispensing spout can be adjusted to better t the
dimensions of the cups that you wish to use.
Move the dispensing spout up or down with your ngers to adjust its
height as shown in the image.
The recommended positions are:
For the use of small cups;
For the use of large cups;
ENGLISH
For the use of latte macchiato cups.
Note:
The dispensing spout can also be removed to allow the use of very large
containers.
Two cups can be placed under the dispensing spout to brew two cups of
co ee at the same time.
Adjusting the co ee length
The machine allows you to adjust the amount of brewed co ee or milk
according to your taste and the size of your cups.
