3 Preparing and using for the first time
When setting up your GIGA, please note the following:
U
Place the GIGA on a horizontal surface that is not sensitive to
water�
U
Choose a spot for your GIGA which protects the machine
against overheating� Ensure that the ventilation slats are not
covered�
The bean containers have an aroma preservation cover� This will
ensure that your coffee beans retain their aroma for longer�
Coffee beans which have been treated with additives (e�g� sugar),
ground coffee or freeze-dried coffee will damage the grinders�
T
Only use roasted, untreated coffee beans to fill the bean
container�
T
Remove the aroma preservation cover�
T
Remove any dirt or foreign objects from inside the bean
container�
T
Fill the bean container with coffee beans and close the aroma
preservation cover�
When you use the machine for the first time, you must set the water
hardness� If you know the hardness of your water, go straight to the
next section� If you do not know the water hardness, you can find
this out first:
T
Hold the Aquadur
®
test strip supplied under running water for
one second� Shake off the water�
T
Wait for about 1minute�
T
You will then be able to read the degree of water hardness from
the discolouration of the Aquadur® test strip and the descrip-
tion on the packaging�
