8. Close the tank with the lid (fig. 12), then replace the tank
in the machine;
9. Position a container with a minimum capacity of 500ml
under the cappuccino maker/hot water spout (A18).
10. Deliver hot water by turning the steam/hot water dial
(A21) to the
I
position.
11. Deliver at least 500 ml of water, then turn the steam/hot
water dial to the
0
position.
The filter is now active and you can use the coffee machine.
Please note:
Occasionally one delivery of hot water is not enough to install
the filter and the
lights come on dur-
ing installation.
If this happens repeat the installation procedure from point 8.
The filter is now active and you can use the coffee machine.
10.2 Removal and replacement of the water
softener filter
After two months (see date indicator) or when the appliance has
not been used for 3 weeks, you should replace the filter:
1. Extract the tank (A7) and exhausted filter (C4);
2. To replace the filter, remove the new filter from the pack-
aging and proceed as described in the previous section.
The filter is now activated.
11. RINSING
Use this function to deliver hot water from the coffee spouts
(A11) to clean and heat the appliance’s internal circuit.
Place a container with a minimum capacity of 100ml under the
coffee and hot water spouts.
Important! Danger of scalding.
Do not leave the appliance unattended while hot water is being
delivered.
1) To start this function, press the
button (B5);
2) After a few seconds, hot water is delivered from the cof-
fee spouts, cleaning and heating the appliance’s internal
circuit.
3) To interrupt the function manually, press the
but-
ton again.
Please note!
• If the appliance is not used for more than 3-4 days, when
you turn it on again, we strongly recommend performing
2/3 rinses before use;
• After cleaning, it is normal for the grounds container (A13)
to contain water.
12. MAKING COFFEE USING COFFEE BEANS
12.1 Selecting the coffee taste
Turn the coffee taste selection dial (B6) to set the required taste.
Turning clockwise increases the quantity of coffee beans that
will be ground by the machine and consequently the strength
of the coffee.
Turn the dial to MIN for an extra mild coffee and to MAX for an
extra strong coffee.
Please note:
• The first time you use the appliance, you will need to make
a number of coffees to identify the correct dial position
through trial and error.
• Do not turn the dial too far towards MAX, otherwise the
coffee may be delivered too slowly (a drop at a time), par-
ticularly when making two cups of coffee at the same time.
12.2 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 (A5) (fig. 13).
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 towards 7.
For fuller bodied creamier coffee, turn
one click anticlockwise towards 1 (do not
turn more than one click at a time other-
wise the coffee could be delivered a drop
at a time).
The effect of the adjustment will be noticed only after making
a further 2 cups of coffee, at least. If this adjustment does not
produce the desired result, turn the dial another click.
12.3 Tips for a hotter coffee
For hotter coffee, proceed as follows:
• perform a rinse cycle by pressing the
button (B5);
• warm the cups with hot water using the hot water function
(see section “15. Delivering hot water”);
