Always check that the coffee quantity in the filter is correct (see
paragraph "6.8 Adjusting the quantity of ground coffee in the
filter").
6.3 Beverage selection
1. Turn the mode selector dial (B8) to select the desired coffee
(see section "6.2 Coffee beverages").
2. If you use the 2 cup filter (C3), press the "2X" button (B3) .
6.4 Select the grinding level
The grinding level affects delivery speed and therefore the qual-
ity of the extract.
The first time you use the appliance, we recommend using the
factory setting (medium grinding) (fig. 19), then if you are not
satisfied with the result, adjust the level according to your per-
sonal taste and the type of coffee by setting a finer or coarser
grinding level, referring to the tips in section "6.8 Adjusting the
quantity of ground coffee in the filter".
Important:
• Always adjust the coffee mill while in operation.
• Adjust one grinding level at a time and make at least 5 coffees
before adjusting again.
6.5 The coffee filters
The appliance is provided with two coffee filters.
The 1 coffee filter (C2), has the
symbol marked on the
bottom.
The 2 coffee filter (C3), has the
symbol marked on the
bottom.
The ideal level of pressed coffee is marked inside both filters
(fig. 20). If the quantity is above or below the level indicated,
the result may not be satisfactory. The next times you use the
coffee mill, you can adjust the grinding level using the dial (B2)
(see section "6.8 Adjusting the quantity of ground coffee in the
filter").
6.6 Grind the coffee directly into the filter
1. Place the ground coffee filter (C2) or (C3) in the filter holder
(C1) (fig. 21);
2. Press the "X2" button if you are using the 2 coffee filter;
3. Attach the filter holder to the outlet of the coffee mill
(A22), aligning it with "INSERT", then turning it to the right
(fig. 22). Grinding begins when the filter holder reaches the
CLOSE position and stops automatically;
Important:
while the appliance is grinding coffee, you can per-
form a rinse, or produce hot water or steam at the same time.
4. Once grinding is complete, the
(B16) light flashes: pull
the presser lever (A23) as far as it will go. The force exerted
on the coffee is indicated on the lever itself
(
)
(fig. 23). The
light remains on steady.
5. Remove the filter holder by turning it towards the left.
Important:
to adjust the correct quantity ground automatically into the filter hold-
er, see section "6.8 Adjusting the quantity of ground coffee in the filter".
If the filter holder is removed without pressing the coffee, flash-
es the
(B16) light. To press it, turn the knob (B2) to
position to disable the grinding and pull the lever (A23) : then
re-attach the filter holder.
6.7 Using pre-ground coffee
1. Place the ground coffee filter (C2) or (C3) in the filter holder
(C1) (fig. 21);
2. Place the quantity of ground coffee in the filter;
3. Turn the dial (B2) to
position to disable the coffee mill;
4. Attach the filter holder to the outlet of the coffee mill (A22)
aligning it with "INSERT", then turning it to the right (fig.
10).
5. Pull the presser lever (A23) as far as it will go. The print-
ing on the lever indicates the pressing force exerted
(
) (fig. 23).
6. Remove the filter holder by turning it towards the left.
6.8 Adjusting the quantity of ground coffee in
the filter
Important:
When using the coffee mill for the first time, leave
the knob to position (min). At the beginning, it is normal for a
few attempts to be needed before finding the correct grinding level
and quantity. We recommend starting by using the default values,
then if necessary changing them according to the tips in section
"14. How to make perfect coffee".
A mark on the inside of the (C2) and (C3) filters shows the ideal
quantity of pressed coffee (fig. 20). Adjust the (B2) dial to in-
crease of decrease the quantity of ground coffee (fig. 24), in
order to achieve the ideal quantity indicated by the mark.
