9. Unplug machine from outlet as soon as you stop using it and when you clean it. Allow
to cool before putting on or taking off parts, before cleaning the machine, and before

residue showing prior to use.
11. Do not operate any machine with a damaged cord or plug or after the machine
malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return machine to the nearest
Krups Service Center for examination, repair or adjustement.
12. To reduce the risk of injury do not drape cord over the counter top or table top where
it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
AA..We do not recommend using an extension cord with this device.
BB..If an extension cord is absolutely necessary,
1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great
as the electrical rating of the machine,
2) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter
top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
CC..This machine has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the
risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
In the interest of improving products, Krups reserves the right to change specifications
without prior notice.

To get the best tasting coffee and espresso and to extend your machine’s service life, we advise you to use the Claris - Aqua
Filter System cartridge enclosed with this machine.
This filter system reduces chlorine, impurities, lead, copper, pesticides, etc. that may be present in the water. Minerals and
trace elements will then be preserved.
6
Before using the machine for the first time, you will need to complete an initial set up procedure to ensure that the machine will
operate properly. You will be asked to set the water hardness level, language, clock, date, and a few other options. The digital
display will walk you through each step and the initial set up takes just a few minutes. Please note, if you disconnect the
machine from the power source, you will need to complete parts of this process again.
BEFORE FIRST USE
After 1 minute the hardness measurement will appear.
This is the number you will be asked to program into the machine.
Filter the water using the
Claris - Aqua Filter System
cartridge to reduce
carbonate hardness,
chlorine, lead, copper,
aluminium*.
Your machine will give you
a message telling you when
to replace your Claris -
Aqua Filter System
cartridge.
The Claris cartridge needs
to be replaced for about
every 50 litres of water or
every two months at least.
Fill a glass with the
water you normally use
and immerse the test
strip.

Splashing or scalding may occur if the coffee outlets are set too high in relation to the size of the cups.
With a simple touch of a button, you can prepare 4 types of beverages : espresso, strong espresso, coffee and

PPlleeaasseennoottee::The ground coffee is first moistened with a little hot water after the grinding stage. This is called
“pre-brewing” and it optimizes the brewing process by ensuring that the grounds are evenly wet.
A few moments later, the full brewing cycle begins.
You can use your machine to make 2 cups of coffee or espresso by cycling the machine twice. Remember not to remove
the cups after the first cycle.
Put two cups under the

TWO-CUP FUNCTION
There is a temperature setting function to control how hot your coffee is (see Settings).
USING STEAM
Steam is used to froth milk (for cappuccino / latte) but can also be used to reheat other liquids. As you need a higher
temperature to produce steam than to make an espresso, the machine runs an additional pre-heating phase for steam.
When the screen displays the selection menu, press the “steam” key . The screen will
inform you that the machine is being pre-heated. Once the pre-heating phase has been
completed, a message will ask you to place a container under the steam nozzle. Press the
“steam” key again to start generating steam. A little water will be produced first and
then steam will start. Use the same key to stop steam generation.
