8.4 Adjusting the coee mill
The coee mill is set by default to prepare coee correctly and
should not require regulating initially.
However, if after making the rst few coees you nd that the
coee 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-g. 14).
Please note!
The grinding adjustment dial must only be turned when the
coee mill is in operation.
If the coee is delivered too slowly or
not at all, turn one click clockwise to-
wards “7”.
For fuller bodied creamier coee, turn
one click anticlockwise towards “1” (do
not turn more than one click at a time
otherwise the coee could be delivered
a drop at a time).
These adjustments will only be evident after at least 2 cups of
coee have been delivered. If this adjustment does not obtain
the desired result, turn the dial another click.
8.5 Tips for a hotter coee
For hotter coee, you should:
• perform a rinse cycle by selecting the “Rinse” function in
the settings menu (section”7.1 Rinsing”);
• warm the cups with hot water using the hot water function
(section “10.1 Hot water”);
• set a hotter coee temperature in the settings menu (sec-
tion “7.10 Setting the temperature”).
8.6 Making coee using coee beans
Important!
Do not use caramelised or candied coee beans as they could
stick to the coee mill and make it unusable.
1. Fill the container (A3-g. 15) with coee beans.
2. Place under the coee spouts (A7):
- 1 cup, if you want to make 1 coee (g. 13);
- 2 cups, if you want 2 coees (g. 16).
3. Lower the spouts as near as possible to the cup (g. 16).
This makes a creamier coee.
4. Press the button corresponding to the number of coees
required (1 cup -B11 or 2 cups -B10).
5. Preparation begins. The amount of coee selected is dis-
played together with a progress bar which gradually lls as
preparation progresses.
Please note:
• While the machine is making coee, delivery can be inter-
rupted at any moment by pressing any button.
• At the end of delivery, to increase the quantity of coee in
the cup, just press (within 3 seconds) one of the coee but-
tons ( or ) (g. 17).
Once the coee has been made, the appliance is ready to make
the next drink.
Please note!
• Various alarm messages could be displayed while using
the appliance (FILL TANK, EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER,
etc.). Their meaning is explained in section “16. DISPLAYED
MESSAGES”.
• For hotter coee, see section “8.5 Tips for a hotter coee”.
• If the coee is delivered a drop at a time, too weak and not
creamy enough or too cold, read the tips in section “17.
TROUBLESHOOTING”.
8.7 Making coee using pre-ground coee
Important!
• Never add pre-ground coee when the machine is o or it
could spread through the inside of the machine and dirty
it. This could damage the appliance.
• Never use more than 1 level measure (C2) or it could dirty
the inside of the coee machine or block the funnel (A4).
Please note!
If you use pre-ground coee, you can only make one cup of
coee at a time.
1. Press the button (B2-g. 11) until “Pre-ground”
appears on the display (B13).
2. Open the pre-ground coee funnel lid (A2).
3. Make sure the funnel (A4) is not blocked, then add one
level measure of pre-ground coee (g. 18).
4. Place a cup under the coee spouts.
5. Press the 1 cup coee button (B11).
6. Preparation begins. The amount of coee selected is dis-
played together with a progress bar which gradually lls as
preparation progresses.
Please note!
If “Energy Saving” mode is active, you may have to wait a few
seconds before the rst coee is delivered.
8.8 Making LONG coee using coee beans
Prepare the appliance following the instructions in the section
“8.6 Making coee using coee beans”, then press the
button (B9-g. 19): “LONG COFFEE FUNCTION” appears on the
display (B13), together with a progress bar which lls gradually
as preparation proceeds.
