This document describes an automatic coffee machine with a frother, designed for household use. It covers various functions, usage instructions, and maintenance procedures to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the device.
The coffee machine is designed to prepare a variety of coffee beverages, including espresso, espresso lungo, and TrueBrew Over Ice™ coffee. It features a built-in coffee grinder, a frother for hot milk and cappuccino, and a hot water delivery function. The machine is equipped with a touch screen interface for easy operation and setting adjustments.
Coffee Preparation: The machine can make coffee using either coffee beans or pre-ground coffee. Users can adjust the coffee strength and quantity to their preference. For coffee beans, the integrated grinder allows for adjustment of the grinding level, which impacts the coffee's strength and creaminess. The machine can prepare one or two cups of espresso or espresso lungo simultaneously.
Milk Frothing: The frother (A20) is a key component for preparing cappuccinos and hot milk. It can be set to either "CAPPUCCINO" for frothed milk or "HOT MILK" for unfrothed hot milk. The frother delivers steam to heat and froth milk, allowing users to create creamy textures for their beverages.
Hot Water Delivery: The machine also provides hot water on demand, which can be used for warming cups or preparing other hot beverages.
Customization and Settings: Users can customize several settings to tailor their coffee experience:
Before First Use: Upon unpacking, it is essential to check for completeness and any visible damage. The machine requires an initial setup process that involves filling the water tank, placing a container under the frother, and turning the steam/hot water dial to perform a rinse cycle. This ensures the internal circuits are clean and heated.
Turning On and Off: The machine is turned on by pressing the power button (A24) after ensuring the main switch (A6) is pressed. When turning on, the machine performs an automatic preheat and rinse cycle. To turn off, the power button is pressed again, which also triggers an automatic rinse cycle if coffee has been made. For extended periods of non-use, it is recommended to unplug the machine from the mains socket.
Making Coffee:
Making Cappuccino and Hot Milk: Fill a container with milk (preferably cold, skimmed or semi-skimmed). Position the frother selection ring (A21) to "CAPPUCCINO" for froth or "HOT MILK" for unfrothed milk. Immerse the frother (A20) in the milk, ensuring the black ring is not immersed. Press the general alarm icon (B14) to start heating, then turn the steam/hot water dial (A23) to the "I" position to deliver steam. Once the desired froth is achieved, turn the dial back to "0".
Rinsing: The rinsing function delivers hot water from the coffee spouts to clean and heat the machine's internal circuit. It is recommended to perform 2-3 rinses if the machine has not been used for several days.
Regular cleaning and maintenance are crucial for the machine's performance and hygiene.
Cleaning the Machine: Several parts require regular cleaning:
Descaling: The machine needs descaling when the descaling light (B5) flashes. The descaling procedure involves:
Water Softener Filter: If the machine is equipped with a water softener filter (C4), it should be installed and replaced every two months or after three weeks of non-use. Installation involves removing the filter from its packaging, setting the date disk, running tap water through it, immersing it in the water tank, inserting it into the filter housing (A18), and delivering hot water to activate it.
Important Safeguards: The manual emphasizes several safety precautions, including reading all instructions, ensuring correct voltage, avoiding hot surfaces, not immersing the machine in liquids, keeping it out of reach of children, unplugging when not in use or before cleaning, and not operating with damaged cords or plugs. Repairs should only be done by authorized service personnel to avoid voiding the warranty. The machine is for household use only.
