3. SETTING UP THE APPLIANCE
Please note!
• The rst time you use the machine, the water circuit is
empty and the appliance could be very noisy. The noise
becomes less as the circuit lls.
• Coee has been used to factory test the appliance and it
is therefore completely normal for there to be traces of
coee 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 "15. Setting water
hardness".
1. Models with removable power cord: plug the power cord
(D7*) connector into the socket (A22*) at the back of the
appliance and connect the appliance to the mains electri-
city supply, making sure that the main switch (A23) at the
back of the appliance is pressed in (g. 1A);
1A 1B
2. Models with xed power cord: connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply and make sure that the main switch
(A23) at the back of the appliance is pressed in (g. 1B);
3. To select the language of the display, press and hold
until the required language appears on the
display, then press the ag corresponding to the language.
Now follow the instructions indicated on the display of the
appliance:
4. Remove the water tank (A17) (g. 2), ll to the MAX line
(marked on the tank) with fresh water (g. 3), then put the
tank back in the appliance (g. 4);
332
5. Make sure the hot water spout (D6) is attached to the con-
nection nozzle (A8) (g. 5) and place a container with a
minimum capacity of 200 ml under the coee spouts (A9)
and hot water spout (g. 6);
6. Press to conrm. The appliance delivers
water from the spout.
7. At the end of delivery, the appliance proceeds with heating
by performing a rinse cycle, delivering hot water from the
coee spouts.
The coee machine is now ready for normal use.
Please note!
• The rst time you use the appliance, you need to make 4
- 5 cappuccinos before it starts to give satisfactory results.
• When making the rst 4 - 5 cappuccinos, it is normal to
hear the noise of boiling water. After this, the noise be-
comes less.
• To improve the performance of your appliance, we recom-
mend installing a water softener lter (D6) as described
in section "16. Water softener lter". If your model is not
provided with a lter, you can request one from De'Longhi
customer services.

the next beverage.
Please note!
• Various alarm messages could be displayed while using
the appliance (FILL TANK, EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER,
ETC.). Their meaning is explained in section "18.Displayed
messages ".
• For hotter coee, see section "7.6 Tips for a hotter coee".
• If the coee is delivered a drop at a time, too weak and not
creamy enough or too cold, read the tips in section "7.5 Ad-
justing the coee mill" and section "19. Troubleshooting ".

7.4 Making coee using pre-ground coee
Important!
• Never add pre-ground coee when the machine is o or it
could spread through the inside of the machine and dirty
it.This could damage the machine.
• Never use more than 1 level measure (D2) as it could soil

Important! Making LONG coee:
Halfway through preparation, the machine requests a fur-
ther level measure of pre-ground coee. Proceed, then press
.
7.5 Adjusting the coee mill
The coee mill is set by default to prepare coee correctly and
should not require regulating initially.
However, if after making the rst few coees you nd that the
coee is either too weak and not creamy enough or delivery is
too slow (a drop at a time), this can be corrected by adjusting
the grinding adjustment dial (A5) (g. 12).
12
13
Please note!
The grinding adjustment dial must only be turned when the
coee mill is in operation during the initial phase of coee
preparation.
If the coee is delivered too slowly or not
at all, turn one click clockwise towards 7.
For fuller bodied creamier coee, turn
one click anticlockwise towards 1 (do
not turn more than one click at a time
otherwise the coee could be delivered
a drop at a time).
The eect of the adjustment will be noticed only after making
a further 2 cups of coee, at least. If this adjustment does not
produce the desired result, turn the dial another click.
7.6 Tips for a hotter coee
To make a hotter coee, proceed as follows:
• perform a rinse cycle by selecting the“Rinse”function (sec-
tion "6.3 Rinse " );
• warm the cups with hot water using the hot water function
(see section "10. Delivering hot water );
• increase the coee temperature (section "6.9 Coee tem-
perature "). Varying the temperature has most eect for
long beverages.
