Before using
for the rst time
General
Fill the water tank with fresh, uncarbonated
water only, and preferably use only beans
for fully automatic coffee and espresso
machines. Do not use coffee beans that
have been glazed, caramelised or treated
with other additives containing sugar, since
they will block the brewing unit.
The water hardness setting can be adjusted
on this appliance. The factory default setting
for the water hardness is 4. Check the
water hardness with the enclosed test strip.
If a value other than water hardness 4 is
displayed, change the setting on the
appliance accordingly after switching on
(see “Menu settings Water hardness”).
Switching on the appliance
Place the fully automatic espresso
machine on a at, water-resistant surface
that can take its weight.
Note: The appliance has four runners under
its base and can be moved sideways in an
arc to make operation and positioning
easier.
Pull the power cord out of the storage
compartment 28 and plug in. Adjust the
length of the cable by pushing it back in
or pulling it out. The easiest way to do
this is to place the appliance so that its
back is ush with the edge of the counter
and either pull the cable downward or
push it upward.
Lift the lid of the water tank 12.
Remove and rinse the water tank 11 and
ll it with fresh cold water.
Do not ll above the “max” mark.
Replace the water tank 11 and push it
rmly downward into place.
Close the lid of the water tank 12 again.
Fill the bean container 15 with coffee
beans.


!Risk of electric shock
Unplug the appliance before cleaning it.
Never immerse the appliance in water.
Do not use a steam cleaner.
Wipe the outside of the appliance with a
soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive
cloths or cleaning agents.
Always remove any limescale, coffee,
milk or descaling uid residue immedi-
ately. Such residue can cause corrosion.
Rinse the water tank 11 and the brewing
unit 21 with water only.
The cover of the storage compartment 23
and the drip tray panel 24 should only be
wiped gently with a damp cloth. Do not
put them in the dishwasher.

N.B.: If the appliance is cold when switched
on with the abutton 2, or if it is set to a
mode after brewing coffee, it rinses
automatically, in other words the system
cleans itself.
Important: If the appliance has not been
used for a prolonged period of time (e.g.
after a vacation), clean the entire appliance
thoroughly, including the milk system 10
and brewing unit 21.
Cleaning the milk system
Clean the milk system 10 immediately after

Tips on energy saving
The fully automatic espresso machine
switches to “energy saving mode”
automatically after one hour (factory
setting). The appliance uses very little
power in “energy saving mode”. The
default time of one hour can be altered:
(see Menu settings, “auto oFF aFter”) .
If the appliance is not being used, switch
it off at the power on/off switch 1O/ I on
the front.
If possible, do not interrupt coffee or milk
froth dispensing. Cutting the coffee or
milk froth dispensing process short
results in higher energy consumption and
in more residual water collecting in the
drip tray.
Descale the appliance regularly to avoid a
build-up of limescale. Limescale residue
results in higher energy consumption.
