Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a Philips Barista Brew Espresso machine! To fully benefit from the
support that we offer, please register your product at www.philips.com/welcome.
Read the separate safety booklet carefully before you use the machine for the first time and save it for
future reference.
To help you get started and to get the best out of your machine, we offer online support at
www.philips.com/coffee-care.
There are multiple versions of this semi-automatic espresso machine, which all have different features.
Each version has its own type number. You can find the type number on the data label located on the
bottom of the machine.
This machine has been tested with coffee. Although it has been carefully cleaned, there may be some
coffee residues left. We guarantee, however, that the machine is absolutely new.
Before first use
1. Installing the bean hopper and filling the water tank
1 Check and ensure that the two arrows on the grinder align with each other (Fig. 1).
2 Check and ensure that the two "I" marks on the bean hopper base align with each other (Fig. 2).
3 Press downward the bean hopper, ensure that the lock symbol on the bean hopper aligns with the
triangle symbol on the machine top (Fig. 3), and rotate the bean hopper clockwise (Fig. 4).
4 Rotate the bean hopper to select your desired coarseness (Fig. 5).
The grinder and bean hopper are precision components, so avoid frequently removing them after
installation.
5 Open the water tank lid, grip the top handle of the water tank, and lift it vertically to remove it (Fig. 6).
6 Remove the yellow sealing strip from the bottom of the water tank (Fig. 7).
7 Fill the water tank with room-temperature filtered water. The water level should be controlled below the
"Max" mark on the water tank (Fig. 8).
8 Grip the top handle and place the water tank back onto the machine vertically. Close the water tank lid
(Fig. 9).
The removed yellow sealing strip does not need to be reinstalled; you may discard it.
For best coffee quality, we suggest to frequently change water in the water tank.
2. Switching on the machine for the first time
1 Put the plug in an earthed wall socket.
2 Make sure the hot water/steam knob is in the off position (Fig. 10).
