aromaDouble Shot
The longer the coffee is brewed, the more
bitter substances and undesired aromas
are released. This has a negative effect
on the taste and makes the coffee less
easily digestible. So for extra strong
coffee the TES556 / TES559 has a special
aromaDouble Shot function. When half
the quantity has been prepared, coffee is
ground and brewed again so that only the
pleasant, aromatic scents are released.
The aromaDouble Shot function is activated
with the following settings:
Before using for the
first time
General
Fill the appropriate container using only
pure, cold, uncarbonated water and only
roasted beans (preferably espresso or
coffee bean blends for fully automatic coffee
machines). Do not use coffee beans that
have been glazed, caramelised or treated
with other additives containing sugar, since
they will block the brewing unit.
The water hardness setting can be adjusted
on this appliance. The factory default setting
for the water hardness is 4. Check the
water hardness with the enclosed test strip.
If the check reveals a value other than 4,
change the setting on the appliance accord-
ingly after switching on (see “Menu settings”
Water hardness ).
Switching on the appliance
1. Remove the protective film.
2. Place the fully automatic espresso
machine on a flat, water-resistant sur-
face that can take its weight. Make
sure that the machine’s ventilation slots
remain unobstructured.
Important: Only use the appliance in
frost-free rooms. If the appliance has been
transported or stored at temperatures below
0° C, wait at least 3 hours before operation.
3. Pull the power cord out of the storage
compartment (21) and plug in. Adjust
the length of the cable by pushing it
back in or pulling it out. The easiest way
to do this is to place the appliance so
that its back is flush with the edge of the
counter and either pull the cable down -
ward or push it upward .
4. Install the milk frother. Operate the ma-
chine only after the milk frother (6) has
been fully assembled and installed.
5. Lift the lid of the water tank (18).
6. Remove and rinse the water tank (17)
and fill it with fresh cold water.
Do not fill above the
max
mark.
7. Replace the water tank (17) and push it
firmly downward into place.
8. Close the lid of the water tank (18)
again.
9. Fill the bean container (1) with coffee
beans (for preparation using ground
coffee, see “Preparation using ground
coffee”).
