Please note!
• When setting up the appliance, you need to make 4-5 cups
of coffee or 4-5 cappuccinos before the appliance starts to
give satisfactory results.
• 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 “15. Water
softener filter”. If your model is not provided with a filter,
you can request one from De’Longhi Customer Services.
4. TURNING THE APPLIANCE ON
Please note!
Before turning the appliance on, make sure the main switch
(A20) 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
(A11) and is collected in the drip tray (A16) underneath. Avoid
contact with splashes of water.
