5.3 Connecting the appliance
Important!
Check that the mains power supply voltage corresponds to that
indicated on the rating plate on the bottom of the appliance.
Connect the appliance to an eciently earthed and correctly
installed socket with a minimum current rating of 10A only.
If the power socket does not match the plug on the appliance,
have the socket replaced with a suitable type by a qualied
professional.
5.4 Setting up the appliance
Please note:
• Coee has been used to factory test the appliance and it is
therefore completely normal for there to be traces of cof-
fee in the mill. The machine is, however, guaranteed to be
new.
You should customise water hardness as soon as possible
following the instructions in section ““15. Setting water
hardness”.
1. Insert the power cord (C7) connector into the socket (A9) at
the back of the appliance and connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply (g. 1). Make sure the main switch
(A8) at the back of the appliance is pressed (g. 2);
2. Remove the water tank (A10), ll to the MAX line with
fresh water (g. 3A) then put back in the appliance (g.
3B);
You must rst choose the language by turning the selection dial,
or waiting until the languages scroll through on the display (B1)
automatically at intervals of about 3 seconds:
3. When "English" appears on the display, press the
button (B9) (g. 4) for a few seconds until "English set" is
displayed;
Follow the instructions indicated on the appliance display:
4. "INSERT WATER SPOUT": Check that the hot water spout
(C6) is inserted on the connection nozzle (A13) and place
a container holding a minimum of 100ml underneath (g.
5);
5. "HOT WATER Conrm?" appears on the display;
6. Press the button to conrm (g. 4). The appliance
delivers water from the spout then goes o automatically.
The coee machine is now ready for normal use.
Please note:
• The rst time you use the coee maker, you need to make
4/5 cups of coee or 4/5 cappuccinos before it starts to give
satisfactory results.
• When making the rst 5-6 cappuccinos, it is normal to hear
the noise of boiling water. After this, the noise becomes
less.
• To enjoy your coee even more and improve the perfor-
mance of your appliance, we recommend installing a
water softener lter (C4) as described in section “16. Water
softener lter”. If your model is not provided with a lter,
you can request one from De'Longhi Customer Services.
6. TURNING THE APPLIANCE ON
Please note:
Before turning the appliance on, make sure the main switch
(A8) on the back of the appliance is pressed (g. 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 coee spouts
(A14) and is collected in the drip tray (A19) underneath. Avoid
contact with splashes of water.
• To turn the appliance on, press the button (B3) (g.
6). The message "Heating up Please wait" appears on the
display (B1).
When heating is complete, the message changes to "RINSING".
As well as heating the boiler, this also heats the internal circuits
by circulating hot water.
The appliance is at temperature when the message indicating
the taste and quantity of coee appears.
7. TURNING THE APPLIANCE OFF
Whenever the coee machine is turned o after being used to
make coee, it performs an automatic rinse cycle.
Danger of burns!
During rinsing, a little hot water ows from the coee spouts
(A14). Avoid contact with splashes of water.
• To turn the appliance o, press the button (B3) (g.
6);
• The message "Turning o Please wait" appears on the dis-
play (B1), then the appliance performs a rinse cycle and
goes o (standby).
Please note!
If you will not be using the appliance for some time, unplug
from the mains socket:
• rst turn the appliance o by pressing the button
