Select from the keyboard the dose to be dispensed
by pressing the desired key [1], [2] or [M/3], the selec-
ted icon will be over-marked in orange. Position the
filter holder, pushing it until it presses the activation
pin. It is recommended that you keep the filter holder
slightly inclined, and straighten it once it has reached
the activation pin. The pressure of the pin will activate
grinding. Now it is possible to leave the cup, that will
remain in position anchored to the two spouts. Grin-
ding continues for the time set for the selected dose
button.
One can manually activate the appliance keeping
pushed the push button for manual grinding [M/3].
Hold down the push button for manual grinding and
the grinder will grind until you lift the finger. We sug-
gest to use the push button for manual grinding to
adjust the grinding of the appliance.

Grinding interruption
During grinding, the display
shows the symbol of the selec-
ted dose, grinding progress (by
means of a visual representa-
tion), and grinding time. To can-
cel the grinding in progress, press the cancel button
[B].
During grinding, if necessary, press the button of the
selected dose to pause grinding for 30 seconds. To
resume grinding, press again the button of the selec-
ted dose or the activation pin, depending on the ope-
rating mode. If grinding is not restarted within 30
seconds, the dose will be cancelled.
The counter on the display increment by one unit for
each dose 1 completed and by two units for each
dose 2 completed. For each dose 3, for each dose
cancelled and for each manual dose the counter
increment according to the ratio between the actual
time of grinding and the time set for dose 1.
In order to switch off the appliance manually, set the
on-off switch knob to O.
7.3. Adjusting grinding
In order to achieve finer or coarser grinding, the adjust-
ment disk located under the hopper must be adjusted
using the relevant handle. In order to increase the
coarseness of the ground coffee, the disk must be rota-
ted clockwise; to decrease, turn the disk anticlockwise.
Indicatively, a 1 notch rotation of the disk corresponds
to a variation in the brewing time of the espresso
machine of 3 seconds.
The disk remains in the chosen position without having
to be locked in place. The adjustment must be perfor-
med with the motor on, and preferably without any cof-
fee between the grinding blades. Grind small amounts
of coffee in order to determine the optimal degree of
fineness.
In the Electronic Grinder-Doser version, before chec-
king the fineness of the ground coffee, grind some
doses of coffee to fill the duct between the grinding
area and the outlet. This operation must be done whe-
never the grinding setting has been changed in order to
empty the duct of the previous ground coffee. The
change of the grinding setting might vary the weight of
the doses. Therefore adjust the doses only after the
grinding setting.
In the Grinder-Doser and Electronic Grinder-Doser ver-
sions, if the coffee comes out of the espresso coffee
machine very quickly, it means the coffee is ground too
coarse. Vice versa, if it comes out too slowly, it means
the coffee is ground too fine. Nonetheless, bear in mind
that there are many conditions liable to influence the
correct supply, such as the weight of the portions, the
compacting, the espresso machine settings, and the
cleaning of the filters.
7.4. Coffee dose adjustment
Grinder-Dosers
In order to adjust the size of the portion dispensed, the
small knob located in the centre of the ground coffee
storage container must be turned while holding still the
star shaped dosing unit.
By turning the small knob clockwise, the portion is
reduced. Turning it anticlockwise results in an increase.
One turn of the knob correspond to about 0.5 gr of
dose variation.
Electronic Grinder-Dosers
Coffee dosing in electronic applian-
ces is time-managed, the higher
the time set, the greater the weight
of the dose. It is possible to set up
to three different grinding times,
associated to the buttons [1], [2] and [M/3].
Before setting the dose, you should adjust correctly the
grain size of the ground coffee.
