2. Set up
2.1 Preparing the machine
➔ Carefully remove the machine
and all parts from the packaging.
Note: If you need to return your
machine for servicing, it can be
sent by post in the original packag-
ing. Please keep all packaging and
protective material for this pur-
pose.
➔ Remove the water reservoir (fig.
1/C and 2) and wash it out with
clean, cold tap water.
➔ Then fill the reservoir up to the
“max.” mark and replace it in the
machine. Make sure that it clicks
into place.
Note: Only ever fill the reservoir
with fresh, cold water. Do not use
carbonated water or other liquids!
➔ Open the lid of the coffee con-
tainer (fig. 1/A) and fill it with
coffee beans.
Note: Do not use beans which
have been treated with supple-
ments, such as sugar, during or
after the roasting. Supplements
can damage the grinding mecha-
nism and any repair costs arising
as a result are not covered by the
guarantee.
Please make sure the steam / hot
water valve control knob (fig. 1/N
and 5) is turned to ‘0’!
2.2 Getting started
➔ Plug the machine in.
➔ Switch the mains supply on
(fig. 1/R). The On / Off button
(fig. 1/E) lights up.
➔ Press the On / Off button (fig.
1/E) for about 1 second. The
‘Beans’ symbol appears in the
display and the On / Off button
(fig. 1/E) light flashes.
➔ After a short time the On / Off
button (fig. 1/E) light remains on,
while the steam / rinse button ‘S’
(fig. 1/M) light flashes.
➔ Place a cup under the height-
adjustable coffee spout (fig. 1/G
and 3) and press the steam / rinse
button ‘S’ (fig. 1/M).
➔ The system is then filled with
water and completely rinsed out
via the coffee spout (fig. 1/G).
This operation must always be
carried out when the machine is
started from cold to preserve the
aroma of the coffee. It ensures
that no stale water or coffee left
over from previous brews is used.

10
➔ All four operating buttons
(fig. 1/E, F, M, O) then light up,
and the selected coffee strength
is shown in the display by the
corresponding number of beans
(fig. 4).
➔ The machine is now operational.
Note: As a protective measure, the
pipes are not filled with water when
the machine is first operated. The
machine indicates this as follows:
➔ When the machine has been
turned on with the On / Off button
(fig. 1/E), Symbol 16 ‘Open hot
water / steam valve’ flashes.
➔ Place a cup under the steam /
hot water jet (fig. 1/Q).
➔ Turn the steam / hot water valve
control knob (fig. 1/N and 5) to
the right to open the valve. The
system then fills up and some
water may come out of the jet (fig.
1/Q).
➔ As soon as the symbol ‘Water /
Steam Open / Close’ (Symbol 16)
lights up without flashing and the
filling operation has stopped auto-
matically, you can turn the valve
control knob (fig. 1/N and 5) back
again to close it.
➔ Then follow the steps in ‘2.2
Getting started’.
➔ The machine is now operational.
2.3 Grinder settings
Caution: Grinder settings can only
be adjusted when the grinder is in
operation. You can adjust the grin-
der settings to suit the roast of
your coffee beans. We recommend
that you leave the grinder on a
medium setting.
➔ Slide the regulator on the rear
side (fig. 1/P) into the desired
position while the grinder is runn-
ing. The smaller the dot, the finer
the coffee is ground. Remember:
· a light roast requires a finer
grind
· a dark roast requires a coarser
grind
Try out the different settings to
find the one that best meets your
personal preferences.
... 2. Set up

11
3. Making coffee
Note: The machine is preset for
immediate use. However, we
recommend that first you adjust
the most important settings to suit
your personal needs. Please follow
the instructions in chapter 4
(Programming functions) for filter,
temperature and water hardness
settings.
Note: When the machine is brand
new or has not been used for an
extended period, the first cup of
coffee does not have the full aroma
and should not be drunk.
3.1 Select water quantity
You can freely select the quantity
of water used by turning the water
quantity control knob (fig. 1/D
and 4). The little cup bottom left
represents less water, the large
cup bottom right represents more
water.
Tip: The water quantity can be ad-
justed while the machine is running.
Try out various cup sizes and
quantities to find the setting that
best suits your personal preferen-
ces.
3.2 Selecting coffee strength
There are three levels of coffee
strength to which you can adjust
the brewing unit. They are shown
in the display as follows:
MILD, symbol 9, ‘1 bean’
uses about 7g of ground coffee
e.g. for cafe latte or cappuccino
NORMAL, Symbol 10, ‘2 beans’
uses about 9g of ground coffee
e.g. for American coffee
STRONG, Symbol 11, ‘3 beans’
uses about 11g of ground coffee
e.g. for espresso or very strong
coffee.
➔ As soon as the machine is
operational, the display shows the
default setting (Symbol 10,
‘2 beans’).
➔ You can change this by pressing
and holding the 1-cup or 2-cup
button (fig. 1/F, O) until the des-
ired coffee strength appears in the
display (fig. 1/B). Brewing begins
as soon as you release the button.
Caution: Pressing / releasing the
button automatically starts the
brewing operation!

12
3.3 Making one cup
➔ Place your (pre-heated) cup
under the coffee spout (fig. 1/G
and 3). The coffee spout is height-
adjustable and can be raised or
lowered to suit the cup size.
➔ Select the water quantity setting
as described in 3.1.
➔ Press and hold the 1-cup button
(fig. 1/F) until the desired coffee
strength appears. Then release the
button.
➔ The machine now starts the
grinding, pre-brewing and brewing
operation. It can be stopped at
any time by pushing any button.
Caution: The first time you brew
coffee, the grinding chamber is
still empty. The symbol for ‘not
enough beans’ (Symbol 12,
‘3 beans’) may therefore start to
flash after the first grinding and
no coffee is produced. If this
occurs, press the ‘start’ button
(1 or 2-cup, fig. 1/F or 1/O) a
second time and the operation is
repeated.
Tip: To determine the ideal quantity
of water for your taste or cup size,
make your first cup of coffee as
follows:
➔ Turn the water quantity control
knob (fig. 1/D and 4) to one of the
following positions:
· middle for an espresso cup,
· far right for a large cup.
➔ Press the 1-cup button (fig. 1/F).
➔ The machine starts brewing.
➔ Shortly before the desired
amount of coffee is reached, turn
the water quantity control knob
(fig. 1/D and 4) slowly to the left,
until the machine stops brewing.
➔ For future use, note where the
water quantity control knob is now
pointing.
3.4 Making two cups of coffee
In the 2-cup operation, two cups
of coffee are produced conse-
cutively.
➔ Place both (pre-heated) cups
under the coffee spout (fig. 1/G
and 3).
➔ Select the desired water quantity
settings for one cup (fig. 1/D
and 4).
➔Press and hold the 2-cup button
(fig. 1/O) until the desired coffee
strength appears in the display.
➔ Release the button.
... 3. Making coffee

➔ The machine now starts the
grinding, pre-brewing and brewing
operations and produces two con-
secutive cups of coffee.
Tip:
· Brewing can be stopped at any
point by pressing any button.
· If the water or beans supply runs
out or the trays need emptying
between brewing the first cup and
the second, the appropriate sym-
bol will appear in the display
(Symbol 12, 13 or 17) and the
second coffee will no longer be
made. Follow the display screen
and then press the 1-cup button
(fig. 1/F) for the second cup.
3.5 Using pre-ground coffee
➔ First turn the water quantity
control knob (fig. 1/D and 4) to
the desired level for 1-cup.
➔ Open the lid of the pre-ground
coffee chamber (fig. 1/K and 7).
Symbol 14 flashes.
➔ Add a level measuring spoon of
ground coffee and close the lid
again (Symbol 14 stops flashing
and is lit up).
➔ Place a cup under the coffee
spout (fig. 1/G and 3) and press
the 1-cup button (fig. 1/F). A cup
of coffee is now brewed without
grinding.
Note: If the pre-ground coffee
chamber is left open by accident
or no button is pressed after
coffee is added, the machine will
automatically ask to be rinsed out
a minute after the lid is closed.
Press the flashing rinse button
(fig. 1/M) to confirm, and the
machine will be rinsed out via the
coffee spout (fig. 1/G and 3). It is
then operational again.
Caution: The pre-ground coffee
chamber is not a storage container.
Never add more than one measure
at a time to the chamber, and use
only fresh grinded or vacuum-
packed coffee ground. Do not use
instant coffee powder.
3.6 Drawing hot water
➔ Hold a cup under the steam / hot
water jet or ‘spumatore’ (fig. 1/Q).
➔ Note: When drawing hot water
from the ‘spumatore’ (fig. 1/Q on

4.1 Filter
Inserting filter
You can purchase a special filter
for the water reservoir in specialist
shops (included accessory for
models 620 and above). If you
use this filter correctly, you will
not need to descale your coffee
machine as often. After the filter
was inserted, please adjust the
water hardness setting on level 1
(see chapter 4.2).
➔ Empty the water tank (fig. 1/C
and 2).
➔ Set the insertion and replace-
ment date on the date ring (months)
at the top end of the filter cartridge.
➔ Screw the filter into the bracket
provided in the water reservoir using
the assembly tool on the end of
the measuring spoon (fig. 6).
➔ Fill up the reservoir with fresh
water and put it back in the
machine.
➔ Hold a container under the
steam / hot water jet (fig. 1/Q) and
turn the valve control knob (fig.

Note: Make sure to remove the
filter when the expiry date set on
the date ring is reached. Also
make sure to take the filter out
the machine for descaling when
instructed to do so (see 5.3).
Operating without a filter
If you no longer wish to use the
filter, do not forget to adjust the
water hardness settings.
Important: Please note that the
following programs can only be set
if the On / Off button (fig. 1/E) is
switched to Off (Stand-by mode).
You can program the following
settings:
water hardness, temperature level,
automatic stand-by.
4. Programming functions

4.2 Water hardness
According to the water hardness in
your region, or if you have not
inserted a filter (see chapter 4.1),
sooner or later the machine needs
descaling. So that the system can
indicate accurately when desca-
ling is necessary, you must enter
the correct water hardness set-
tings before first use.
The default setting is level 3.
First, test your water with the test
strips provided:
➔ Dip the strip into the water and
then shake it lightly off.
➔ After about a minute you can
read the result by counting the red
dots on the test strip.
➔ The settings corresponding to
the different levels of hardness are
as follows:
Note: If none of the dots turn red
on the test strip, please set to
level 1.
➔ Switch your machine to Stand-
by mode.
➔ Press the steam warm-up button
(fig. 1/M) for about 4 seconds.
➔ The water hardness is indicated
by the number of buttons lit up as
detailed below.
➔Press the steam warm-up button
repeatedly until the buttons which
indicate your level of water hard-
ness light up.
➔ Press the Stand-by button to
confirm.
➔ To confirm your settings, the
buttons which indicate the level
selected flash twice consecutively.
➔ The programming operation is
then complete and the system is
restored to coffee-brewing mode.
Note: If you interrupt your pro-
gramming operation for more than
11/2minutes, your machine goes
automatically back into coffee-
brewing mode.

5.1 Changing filter
The filter loses its efficiency and
must be replaced after at most
two months.
➔ To change filter, empty the water
reservoir (fig. 1/C and 2) and
unscrew the old filter from the
bracket in the water reservoir.
It can be discarded with the usual
household rubbish.
➔ Set the insertion and replace-
ment dates on the date ring
(months) at the upper end of the
new filter cartridge.
➔ Screw the new filter into the
bracket provided in the water re-
servoir using the assembly tool on
the end of the measuring spoon
(fig. 6).
➔ Refill the water reservoir with
fresh water and replace it in the
