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 an efficiently earthed and correctly
installed 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 qualified
professional.
5.4 Setting up the appliance
Please note:
• Coffee 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 ““15. Setting water
hardness”.
1. Insert the power cord (C7) connector into the socket (A9) at
the back of the appliance and connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply (fig. 1). Make sure the main switch
(A8) at the back of the appliance is pressed (fig. 2);
2. Remove the water tank (A10), fill to the MAX line with
fresh water (fig. 3A) then put back in the appliance (fig.
3B);
You must first choose the language by turning the selection dial,
or waiting until the languages scroll through on the display (B1)
automatically at intervals of about 3 seconds:
3. When "English" appears on the display, press the
button (B9) (fig. 4) for a few seconds until "English set" is
displayed;
Follow the instructions indicated on the appliance display:
4. "INSERT WATER SPOUT": Check that the hot water spout
(C6) is inserted on the connection nozzle (A13) and place
a container holding a minimum of 100ml underneath (fig.
5);
5. "HOT WATER Confirm?" appears on the display;
6. Press the
button to confirm (fig. 4). The appliance
delivers water from the spout then goes off automatically.
The coffee machine is now ready for normal use.
Please note:
• The first time you use the coffee maker, you need to make
4/5 cups of coffee or 4/5 cappuccinos before it starts to give
satisfactory results.
• When making the first 5-6 cappuccinos, it is normal to hear
the noise of boiling water. After this, the noise becomes
less.
• To enjoy your coffee even more and improve the perfor-
mance of your appliance, we recommend installing a
water softener filter (C4) as described in section “16. Water
softener filter”. If your model is not provided with a filter,
you can request one from De'Longhi Customer Services.
6. TURNING THE APPLIANCE ON
Please note:
Before turning the appliance on, make sure the main switch
(A8) on the back of the appliance is pressed (fig. 2).
Each time the appliance is turned on, it performs an automatic
preheat and rinse cycle which cannot be interrupted. The appli-
ance is ready for use only after completion of this cycle.
Danger of burns!
During rinsing, a little hot water comes out of the coffee spouts
(A14) and is collected in the drip tray (A19) underneath. Avoid
contact with splashes of water.
• To turn the appliance on, press the
button (B3) (fig.
6). The message "Heating up Please wait" appears on the
display (B1).
When heating is complete, the message changes to "RINSING".
As well as heating the boiler, this also heats the internal circuits
by circulating hot water.
The appliance is at temperature when the message indicating
the taste and quantity of coffee appears.
7. TURNING THE APPLIANCE OFF
Whenever the coffee machine is turned off after being used to
make coffee, it performs an automatic rinse cycle.
Danger of burns!
During rinsing, a little hot water flows from the coffee spouts
(A14). Avoid contact with splashes of water.
• To turn the appliance off, press the
button (B3) (fig.
6);
• The message "Turning off Please wait" appears on the dis-
play (B1), then the appliance performs a rinse cycle and
goes off (standby).
Please note!
If you will not be using the appliance for some time, unplug
from the mains socket:
• first turn the appliance off by pressing the
button
(fig. 6);
