 Important! Danger of burns. 

Do not leave the appliance unattended while hot water is being 
delivered. 

1)   To enable this function, press the button

(B5). 

"RINSING, Please wait" appears on the display (B1);

2)  After a few seconds, hot water is delivered first from the 

coffee spouts, then from the hot water spout (if inserted) 
to clean and heat the appliance’s internal circuit. "RINSING" 
appears on the display, together with a progress bar which 
fills gradually as preparation proceeds;

3)  To stop the process press any button or wait for delivery of 

water to stop automatically.

 Please note! 

•  If the appliance is not used for more than 3-4 days, when 

switched on again, we strongly recommend performing 
2/3 rinses before use;

•  After cleaning, it is normal for the coffee grounds container 

(A14) to contain water.

10.  MAKING COFFEE

10.1  Selecting the coffee taste

The appliance is set by default to make coffee with a standard 
taste.
You can also choose one of these tastes:
Extra-mild taste
Mild taste
Standard taste
Strong taste
Extra-strong taste

To change the taste, press the aroma selection button
(B6) (fig. 8) repeatedly until the required taste appears on the 
display (B1).

10.2  Selecting the quantity of coffee in the cup

The appliance is set by default to make a standard quantity of 
coffee. To select the quantity of coffee, turn the selection dial 
(B2) (fig. 7) until the message corresponding to the required 
quantity of coffee appears on the display (B1):

Coffee selected

Quantity in cup (ml)

MY COFFEE

Programmable:

from 

20 to 

180

SHORT

40

STANDARD

60

LONG

90

EXTRA LONG

120

10.3  Customising the "my coffee" quantity

The appliance is set by default to automatically deliver 30ml of 
"my coffee". To modify this quantity, proceed as follows:
1.  Place a cup under the coffee spouts (A14) (fig. 9);
2.  Turn the selection dial (B2) (fig. 7) until "MY COFFEE" is 

displayed; 

3.  Press and hold the 

 button (B7) (fig. 10) until the 

message "1 MY COFFEE Program quantity" appears on the 
display (B1) and coffee delivery begins. Then release the 
button;

4.  As soon as the coffee in the cup reaches the required level, 

press the 

button (fig. 10) again. 

The quantity of coffee in the cup has now been programmed.

10.4  Adjusting the coffee mill

The coffee mill is set by default to prepare coffee correctly and 
should not require regulating initially. 
However, if after making the first few coffees you find that the 
coffee is either too weak and not creamy enough or delivery is 
too slow (a drop at a time), this can be corrected by adjusting 
the grinding adjustment dial (A2) (fig. 11).

 Please note: 

The grinding adjustment dial must only be turned when the 
coffee mill is in operation.

If the coffee is delivered too slowly or 
not at all, turn one click clockwise to-
wards 7.
For fuller bodied creamier coffee, turn 
one click anticlockwise towards 1 (do 
not turn more than one click at a time 
otherwise the coffee could be deliv-

ered a drop at a time). 
These adjustments will only be evident after at least 2 cups of 
coffee have been delivered. If this adjustment does not obtain 
the desired result, turn the dial another click.

10.5  Tips for a hotter coffee

For hotter coffee, you should:
•  perform a rinse cycle before delivery by pressing the 

button (B5)

,

 as described in section “10. making coffee”;

• 

warm the cups with hot water using the hot water function 
(see section “12. Hot water”);

•  select the "high" coffee temperature in the menu (see sec-

tion “8.8 Setting the temperature”).
