3. Preparation of the machine
3.1 Checking the mains voltage
The machine is set to the correct voltage before leaving our
factory. Ensure that your mains voltage corresponds to the details
quoted on the rating plate attached to the bottom of the machine.
3.2 Checking the fuse
The machine is designed for a current of 10 Amps. Check that the
fuse used matches this.
3.3 Filling the water tank
Remove the water tank and rinse it out well with cold tap water
(Fig. 1).
Then fill the water tank and put it back into the machine. Ensure
that the tank engages properly.
Only use fresh, cold water. Never fill with milk, mineral
water or other fluids. You can also add water without remov-
ing the tank. Simply lift the lid up and pour in water from
above with a vessel. Close the lid again.
3.4 Adding coffee beans
Lift up the cover of the bean container (12).
Clean out any dirt or foreign objects from the bean container.
Pour coffee beans into the bean container and close the cover
again.
3.5 Adjusting the grinder
You have the possibility of adjusting the grinder to the roast of
your coffee. We recommend the following:
for a light roast
a finer adjustment
for a dark roast
a coarser adjustment
Open the cover of the bean container (12).
To adjust the grinding, turn the selector switch (Fig. 2) to the
required position.
You have the following possibilities:
the smaller the dots, the finer the grinding
the larger the dots, the coarser the grinding
the degree of grinding should only be adjusted with the
grinder in operation.
3.6 Adjusting the water hardness
Water is heated inside the machine. This leads to calcium deposits
(scale) during use. This is automatically displayed.
Before you use your machine for the first time, you must adjust it
to the hardness of the local water. For this purpose, please use the
enclosed test sticks.
1° German water hardness corresponds to 1.79° French water
hardness.
The machine has 5 hardness settings to choose from. During the
setting, the water hardness selected is shown on the display.
