Assembly
BEFORE FIRST USE
Machine Preparation
Remove and discard all labels and packaging
materials attached to your espresso machine.
Ensure you have removed all parts and
accessories before discarding the packaging.
Remove the water tank located at the back of
the machine by pulling down the water tank
handle. Remove the plastic bag containing the
water filter and water filter holder. Clean parts
and accessories (water tank, portafilter, filter
basket, jug) using warm water and a gentle dish
washing liquid. Rinse well then dry thoroughly.
TIP
To easily manoeuvre your machine, use the
drop down swivel foot located under the drip
tray. When turned to UNLOCK, the swivel foot
drops down and lifts the machine upwards,
making it easier to access the removable water
tank or reposition the machine to another
location.
INSTALLING THE WATER FILTER
• Remove the water filter and water filter holder
from the plastic bag.
• Soak the filter in cold water for 5 minutes.
• Wash the filter holder with cold water.
• Set the reminder for next month of
replacement. We recommend to replace the
filter after 3 months.
• Insert the filter into the two parts of the filter
holder.
• To install the assembled filter holder into the
water tank, align the base of the filter holder
with the adapter inside the water tank.
Push down to lock into place.
• Fill the water tank with cold water before
sliding back into position at the back of the
machine and locking into place.
NOTE
Replacing the water filter after three months
or 40L will reduce the need to descale the
machine. Filters can be purchased at Breville
webpage.
NOTE
DO NOT use highly filtered, demineralised or
distilled water in this machine. This may affect
the taste of the coffee.

11
1. Ensure tank is filled with cold water. You can
do this by either opening the top-fill water
tank lid (push to open), or by removing the
water tank at the back of the machine.
2. Press POWER button to turn the machine on
3. The main LCD will display 'Hrd3',
prompting you to set the water hardness
level. Programming this will determine the
regularity of the 'DESCALE' and 'CHANGE
FILTER' alerts.
Setting Water Hardness
Functions
• Remove the supplied water hardness test
strip from the wrapper.
• Dip the test strip into a sample of the water
you have filled the tank with. Wait for one
minute. The water hardness setting is
indicated by the number of red squares
displayed on the test strip eg. 3 red squares
indicates a water hardness setting of 3.
• Rotate SELECT dial to the required setting
from 'Hrd1' (softest water) to 'Hrd5' (hardest
water). Press SELECT dial to set. Machine
will beep once to confirm selection
NOTE
If your water hardness is either 4 or 5 when
tested, we strongly recommend you change
to an alternate water source. Filtered, bottled
spring or mineral water will extend both the life
of your built-in filter and descale intervals as
well as superior taste. Please ensure to test the
water hardness of the alternative water source
you've chosen and input into the machine
accordingly. Avoid using overly filtered water,
like RO water unless some mineral content is
being added back to the final water. Never use
distilled water, or water with no or low mineral
content as this will affect both the taste the
functioning of your machine.
4. A pumping/vibrating sound will be heard
indicating empty boilers are being filled
with water for the first time. The main LCD
will display the current boiler temperature
and flash 'HEATING'.
5. After approximately 5 minutes, the machine
will reach the default operating temperature
93˚C and all 6 buttons will illuminate. The
machine is now in STANDBY mode, ready
for the next step, 'Flushing The Machine'.

Flushing The Machine
When the machine has reached
STANDBY mode:
1. Press 2 CUP button to run water through
the group head for 30 seconds.
2. Press HOT WATER button to run water
through the hot water outlet. After 30
seconds, press HOT WATER button again
to stop the flow of water.
3. Lift steam lever to the MANUAL position
to release steam through the steam wand.
After 30 seconds, lower the steam lever to
the centre OFF position.
4. Repeat steps 1–3 twice.
5. Refill water tank and empty drip tray, if
required.
MANUAL will flash on LCD
The machine will not reach operating
temperature (STANDBY mode) if the steam
lever is in the MANUAL position. The steam
LCD will display 'MANUAL'. Lower the steam
lever to the centre OFF position.
Steam operation is ready when the SELECT
dial illuminates.
NOTE
You will not be able to select the 1 CUP, 2 CUP
or LONG BLACK functions; or access the
cleaning cycle in the menu options until the
machine has reached operating temperature
(STANDBY mode). The machine will beep 3
GRINDING OPERATION
Insert bean hopper into position on top of the
machine. Turn knob to lock into place. Fill
hopper with fresh beans.
TIP
We recommend quality 100% Arabica beans
with a 'Roasted On' date stamped on the bag,
not a 'Best Before' or 'Use By' date. Coffee beans
are best consumed between 5–20 days after
the 'Roasted On' date. Stale coffee may pour too
quickly from the portafilter spouts and taste
bitter and watery.
SELECTING GRIND SIZE
There are 45 espresso grind size settings
(No. 1 – finest, No. 45 – coarsest) to enable
you to select the right grind size for your
coffee beans and achieve the perfect espresso
extraction. To select grind size, rotate the grind
size dial counter-clockwise to increase grind
coarseness or clockwise to increase grind
fineness.
We recommend you start at No. 30 and adjust
as required to control espresso flow rate.

13
SELECT YOUR FILTER BASKET
Insert the correct Filter Basket into the
Portafilter for the number of coffees or strength
you are making.
Use the 1 Cup Filter Basket for making a single
cup or a weaker tasting espresso.
Use the 2 Cup Filter Basket for making 2 cups
or a stronger tasting espresso, usually for mugs
or larger cups.
AUTO GRIND DOSE & TAMP
Align portafilter handle with the INSERT
position on the grind outlet. Lift to insert
portafilter into the grind outlet and rotate to
the centre position.
To start the auto grind, dose & tamp
function,rotate the portafilter to the right
then gently guide back to the centre position.
Grinding will commence.
When the auto grind, dose & tamp function is
complete, rotate the portafilter handle to the
INSERT position and lower to remove.
ESPRESSO EXTRACTION
Align portafilter handle with the INSERT
position on the group head. Lift to insert
portafilter into the group head and rotate
towards the LOCK TIGHT position until
resistance is felt.
EXTRACTION GUIDE
The 1 CUP button and 2 CUP button
use duration to control espresso volume.
The duration times are preset, but can be
reprogrammed (refer to 'Programming Shot
Volume/Duration', page 17). Alternatively,
access the Advanced Features if you wish to
use volumetric controls instead of duration
to determine espresso volume (refer to 'Flow
Measurement Method (VoL)', page 23).
1 CUP BUTTON
Press 1 CUP button once to extract a single
shot of espresso at the preset duration (25
seconds). The extraction will start using the
low pressure pre-infusion.
The machine will stop after 1 CUP duration is
reached and will return to STANDBY mode.
