Always switch Off the
espresso machine by pressing
the POWER button to Off,
switch Off at the power outlet
and unplug.
• Ensure the product is
properly assembled before
first use.
• Do not use any other liquid
apart from cold mains/town
water. We do not recommend
the use of highly filtered,
de-mineralized or distilled
water as this may affect the
taste of the coffee and how the
espresso machine is designed
to function.
• Ensure the portafilter is firmly
inserted and secured into the
group head before starting
an extraction. Never remove
the portafilter during the
extraction process.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• Do not touch hot surfaces.
Allow the product to cool
down before moving or
cleaning any parts.
• Use caution after milk
texturing as the ‘Auto Purge’
function may purge hot
steam when the steam
wand is lowered.
• Use caution when operating
machine as metal surfaces are
liable to get hot during use.
• Use caution when using the
de-scale feature as hot steam
may be released. Before
de-scaling, ensure drip tray
is empty and inserted. Refer
to page 32 for further
instructions.

OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PRODUCT
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 a cup of water for
5 minutes then rinse under cold
running water.
• Wash the filter holder with cold water,
taking specific care to rinse the
stainless steel mesh.
Soak filter for 5 minutes Rinse filter & mesh
• Insert the filter into the two parts of the
filter holder.
Place filter into
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
DO NOT use highly filtered,
demineralised or distilled water in this
machine. This may affect the taste of the
coffee and how the machine operates.
NOTE
To purchase water filters, visit
www.breville.com.au or call Breville
Customer Service Centre.

11
OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PRODUCT
FIRST USE
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
• 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'.

OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PRODUCT
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 times if one of
these functions is selected.
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.

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.
2 CUP BUTTON
Press 2 CUP button once to extract a
double shot of espresso at the preset duration
(30 seconds). The extraction will start using
