Descaling”.
• Install lter: For instructions on how to install the lter
(C4), see section“17.1 Installing the lter”.
To select the operation you require, proceed as follows:
1. Press (B6) to enter the "Settings" menu;
• The appliance could be damaged if the water it contains
freezes.
Do not install the appliance in a room where the tempera-
ture could drop below freezing point.
• Arrange the cord (C7) in such a way that it cannot be dam-
aged by sharp edges or contact with hot surfaces (e.g. elec-
tric hot plates).
5.3 Connecting the appliance
Important!
Check that the mains power supply voltage corresponds to that
indicated on the rating plate on the bottom of the appliance.
Connect the appliance to an eciently earthed and correctly
installed socket with a minimum current rating of 10A only.
If the power socket does not match the plug on the appliance,
have the socket replaced with a suitable type by a qualied
professional.
5.4 Setting up the appliance
Please note:
• Coee has been used to factory test the appliance and it is
therefore completely normal for there to be traces of cof-
fee in the mill. The machine is, however, guaranteed to be
new.
• You should customise water hardness as soon as possible
following the instructions in section “16. Setting water
hardness”.
1. Plug the power cord (C7) connector into the socket (A21) at
the back of the appliance and connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply (g. 1). Make sure the main switch
(A22) at the back of the appliance is pressed (g. 2);
2. "Language": press the selection arrow (B2) until the re-
quired language is displayed between the two dotted
lines, then press OK (B3) to conrm.
Then follow the instructions indicated on the appliance display
(B1):
3. “Fill tank”: remove the water tank (A17), ll to the MAX
line with fresh water (g. 3A), then replace in the appli-
ance (g. 3B);
4. "Insert water spout": Check that the hot water spout (C6)
is inserted on the connection nozzle (A8) (g. 4) and place
a container holding a minimum of 100 ml underneath (g.
5);
5. "Water circuit empty, Fill water circuit, Hot water,
Conrm?";
6. Press the OK button to conrm. The appliance delivers hot
water from the spout then goes o automatically.
The coee machine is now ready for normal use.
Please note:
• The rst time you use the coee maker, you need to make
4-5 cups of coee or 4-5 cappuccinos before it starts to give
satisfactory results.
• When making the rst 5-6 cappuccinos, it is normal to hear
the noise of boiling water. After this, the noise becomes
less.
• To enjoy your coee even more and improve the perfor-
mance of your appliance, we recommend installing a
water softener lter (C4) as described in section“17. Water
softener lter”. If your model is not provided with a lter,
you can request one from De'Longhi Customer Services.
6. TURNING THE APPLIANCE ON
Please note:
Before turning the appliance on, make sure the main switch
(A22) on the back of the appliance is pressed (g. 2).
Each time the appliance is turned on, it performs an automatic
preheat and rinse cycle which cannot be interrupted. The appli-
ance is ready for use only after completion of this cycle.
Danger of burns!
During rinsing, a little hot water comes out of the coee spouts
(A9) and is collected in the drip tray (A15) underneath. Avoid
contact with splashes of water.
• To turn the appliance on, press the button (A7) (g.
6). The message "Heating Please wait" appears on the dis-
play (B1).
After heating, the message "Rinsing" is displayed, together with
a progress bar which gradually lls as preparation proceeds. As
well as heating the boiler, the appliance also heats the internal
circuits by circulating hot water.
The appliance is at temperature when the message "Select your
beverage" is displayed.
7. TURNING THE APPLIANCE OFF
Whenever the coee machine is turned o after being used to
make coee, it performs an automatic rinse cycle.
Danger of burns!
During rinsing, a little hot water ows from the coee spouts
(A9). Avoid contact with splashes of water.
• To turn the appliance o, press the button (A7) (g.
6);
• The message "Turning o underway Please wait" appears
on the display (B1), then the appliance performs a rinse
cycle and goes o (standby).
