be no contact possible with electrical parts. Declared
consumption values shown on the rating plate are
measured on the basis of this type of installation.
Ventilation
To ensure good ventilation, remove the rear panel of the
cabinet.
It is recommended to install the coffee machine so that
it is resting on a continuous surface with an opening of
at least 1¾” x 21¼” (45 x 540 mm) in the base.
Centring and fixing
To centre the coffee machine, position the shims
beneath the holes in the outer structure of the machine.

Rinse and fill the
tank with fresh drinking
water, always up to the
max level.
Close the lid and
replace the tank in
position.
! Attention you will be
notified on the display
to fill the water tank.
This will happen already
when the tank is only half empty caused by the use of
the water filter which soften your water.
! Always use fresh, non-sparkling water to fill the tank.
Hot water or any other liquid may damage the tank
and/or the machine. Do not switch the machine on
without water: make sure that the tank is fully filled
with water.
The main switch is in
the “O” position. To
switch on, press the key
in the “I” position.
Close the front panel
by pressing firmly in the
centre. The machine
begins to heat up and the display shows:
RINSING
WARMING UP...
When the right temperature is reached, the machine
goes through a rinsing cycle.
RINSING
The machine dispenses water from the brew unit as it
rinses the internal circuits.
After rinsing, the machine returns to normal operating
conditions. The display shows:
SELECT PRODUCT
READY FOR USE
! To disable the rinse cycle, see the paragraph on
programming the machine.
Starting and using
! Before starting the machine make sure the containers
are filled with the amount described in the manual.
Prime the circuit immediately to prevent damage to the
machine.
! After starting the machine, regulate water hardness.
That will allow you to keep your machine in perfect
order (see Programming).
The first time you switch on
1. Open the front panel
by pressing firmly in the
center.
2. Remove the bean
container.
(to your convenience,
you can take out
complete container and
fill whenever you want
or even changhe the
container with another
one which is filled, for
example, with decaf
coffee).
3. Pour coffee beans
into the container being
careful not to add too
many.
Close the lid and repla-
ce the container inside
the machine.
4. Remove the water
tank fully from the
machine.

NA
Priming the water circuit
! Before starting the machine after long periods of
inactivity, it is essential to prime the machine circuit.
Moreover the circuit must be primed every time the
following is displayed:
VENTILATE
1. To prime the circuit,
direct the steam spout
over the drip tray.
Place a cup or suitable
container below the
steam spout and press
the key.
2. Wait until the water runs smoothly out of the steam
spout.
To interrupt, press the key.
After the above operations have been completed the
machine is ready for use.
To dispense coffee, hot water or steam and for proper
use of the machine, carefully follow the instructions that
are provided.
Water filter
All Scholtes non-plumbed coffee centers are equipped
with the water filter.
The water filter purifies the water used in the
preparation of coffee.
Its properties reduce the hardness of water and remove
the unpleasant taste of chlorine.
The water filter may be installed at any time.
Installing the water filter
1. Open the front panel
and remove the water
tank.
Empty the tank of any
water.
2. Remove the filter
packaging and set the
calendar to the current
month.
! Refer to the notes for
using the filter below.
3. Insert the filter into the
tank. The reference mark
and the groove should
coincide. Press down
completely.
Fill up the tank with fresh
drinking water.
After 30 minutes, di-
spense all the water in
the tank into a container.
Afterwards fill the tank
again with water and
replace the tank in the
machine. Close the front
panel.
! The machine is already
programmed for use with the filter (see programming).
The machine informs the user when it is time to replace
the filter.
! The water filter must always be removed before
running the descaling cycle.
Regulating water hardness
Regulate the machine to the right degree of water hard-
ness that you will use.
According to this setting, the machine advises when it is
necessary to run a descaling cycle.
Read the sections on “Water hardness” in “Program-
ming” to regulate hardness.

Grinding regulation
! Take care when rotating the knob that regulates
grinding, which is located above the brewing group. Do
not put ground and/or freeze-dried coffee in the bean
container.
! Do not put any material other than coffee beans in
the container.
Switch off at the mains before carrying out any type of
operation inside the machine.
The quality and flavour of coffee depend on the
grinding level, as well as the blend used.
The machine has a knob to regulate the coffee
grinding.
To regulate the grinding,
turn the knob one
setting at a time. The
figures indicate the
fineness of the grind.
The manufacturer
configures each
appliance on an
intermediate grinding
setting. If the grind is
too fine, rotate the knob to a higher setting; if the grind
is too coarse, turn the knob to a lower setting.
The variation in grind will only be seen after one or two
coffees have been brewed.
Use coffee bean blends for espresso machines. Try
not to use high grinding settings (e.g. 1/10). Use
different coffee blends for these settings. Keep the
coffee in a fresh place in a sealed, airtight container.
Grinding must only be regulated if coffee is not brewed
properly:
• if it is brewed too fast, this means that the grind is
too coarse; turn the knob to a lower setting;
• if it is brewed in drips and/or intermittently, this
means that the grind is too fine; turn the knob to a
higher setting.
We reccomend to replace the old filter with a new one
after every descaling cycle.
Additional information for correct use of
the water filter.
For correct use of the water filter (where installed),
here are a number of recommendations:
1. Store the water filter in a cool place away from the
sun, at a temperature of between +5°C/41°F and
+40°C/104°F;
2. Use in areas with temperature no higher than
60°C/140°F;
3. It is advisable to wash the water filter if the machine
has been inactive for 3 days or more;
4. Replace filter if the machine has been inactive for
20 days or more;
5. To preserve a filter that has already been opened,
place in a plastic airtight bag and store in the
refrigerator; do not store in freezer, as this will alter
the properties of the filter;
6. Before using the filter, place in water in the tank for
30 minutes;
7. Once removed from its package, do not store filter
in the open air;
8. The filter must be replaced 90 days after it has been
removed from its package.
9. To ensure proper functioning of the product, we
raccomend to replace the old filter witha new one
after every a descaling cycle.
