When you install the appliance, you should respect the follow-
ing safety warnings:
• The appliance gives o heat. After positioning the appli-
ance on the worktop, leave a space of at least 3 cm be-
tween the surfaces of the appliance and the side and rear
walls and at least 15 cm above the coee maker.
• Water penetrating the coee machine could cause
damage.
Do not place the appliance near taps or sinks.
• 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 power cord in such a way that it cannot be
damaged by sharp edges or contact with hot surfaces (e.g.
electric 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 a correctly installed and eciently
earthed 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
electrician.
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 “17. etting water
hardness”.
1. Plug the power cord (C8) connector into the socket (A20) at

sponding to the required language;
Follow the instructions indicated on the appliance display:

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.
• 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.
• When making the rst 5-6 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 (C4) as described
in section “18. Water softener lter”. If your model is not
provided with a lter, you can request one from De'Longhi
Customer Services.

9.5 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. 10).
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).
These adjustments will only be evident after at least 2 cups of
coee have been delivered. If this adjustment does not obtain
the desired result, turn the dial another click.
9.6 Tips for a hotter coee
For hotter coee, you should:
• perform a rinse cycle by selecting the "Rinsing" function in
