Before using the coffee system for the first time, clean the appliance. See "Cleaning and Care". Filling the water tank The beans and the water quality is important for a good espresso or coffee. If the machine is plumbed to a water line and turned on, the water tank is automatically filled.
Filling water, beans or ground coffee Filling the beans container Only fill espresso or coffee beans in the beans container. Anything else - including ground coffee - will damage the grinding unit. Caramelized or otherwise pre-treated beans or sugar containing beverages must not be filled into the appliance.
The lines must be rinsed daily before the first use. This will happen automatically if "Rinse automatic" is set to "On" (see "Settings - Rinse Automatic") and the machine is cold. After heating, hot water runs out of the two spouts into the drip tray. If "Rinse automatic"...
Making coffee Pre-warming cups All beverages should be made in a warm cup, to develop the aroma. The smaller the amount of coffee or espresso and the thicker the cups, the more important it is to pre-warm the cups. ^ Set the cup under the hot water spout.
Espresso and coffee made from coffee beans ^ Set a cup under the coffee dispenser. The drink is dispensed through both dispensers at the same time. ^ Select "Espresso" or "Coffee". The machine grinds the beans and pre-brews the coffee (if "On" is selected under "Pre-brewing").
Making coffee Espresso and coffee made from ground coffee After filling the funnel with ground coffee (see "Filling water, beans or ground coffee - Filling ground coffee"), the display shows: Did you fill ground coffee and do you want to prepare it? + No ^ Select "Yes".
Cappuccino and milk froth When using for the first time or using after descaling The lines were completely drained before the unit left the factory. They will also be drained when the machine is descaled. Before preparing cappuccino or froth, the lines must be filled with water.
Page 18
Making coffee Cappuccino To prepare a cappuccino you need a large ceramic or porcelain cup and a small mug (supplied) of milk. The best milk froth is achieved with cold milk. Only one cup of cappuccino can be prepared at a time because of the milk frothing process.
The amount of ground coffee determines the strength of the coffee and the quality of the crema. The amount of ground coffee can be adjusted in the main menu. See "Settings - Grind amount". To prevent machine damage adjust the coffee grinder one notch at a time and let the beans grind before adjusting another notch.

Grind amount The grind amount can be set, depending on the coffee type, between 0.2 ounces and 0.5 ounces (6 - 14 grams). The more the coffee is ground the stronger the espresso, coffee or cappuccino will be. The crema is also influenced by the grind amount.
Settings Temperature Five temperatures are available for each beverage, three for hot water. Maximum is the highest temperature, minimum the lowest. Not every coffee type allows high temperatures. Some types react so sensitively that the crema cannot be properly built. ^ Select the User profile, for which you would like to set the temperature.
Steam system The appliance has two heating systems. They allow for independent preparation of froth/cappuccino or espresso/coffee. The second heating system can be turned off to save energy during the heating phase e.g. if froth is not prepared very often. When the steam system is turned off and froth or cappuccino is selected, the unit must heat up first to produce...
Settings Total no. coffees ^ Select "Total no. coffees" to check the number of previously dispensed espresso, coffee and cappuccino. After a few seconds the display switches back to the "Settings" menu or touch "OK". System Lock The coffee system can be locked so that it cannot be used by children or those not familiar with the operating instructions.
Water hardness The hardness of the water used in the coffee system must be determined and programmed into the appliance. The water hardness will determine how frequently the unit must be descaled to maintain the coffee system properly. The machine monitors the volume of water passing through it in conjunction with the hardness of the water and will indicate when descaling is necessary.
Settings User profiles Up to 10 different user profiles can be entered to accommodate different tastes i.e. different grind amounts, temperature, pre-brewing, portion sizes. Creating a user profile ^ Select "Settings" and then "more" twice. ^ Select "User profiles". The upper display line shows which user profile is currently set, if different profiles were already created.
Change name ^ If you would like to change a name, touch "Change name" and then the touch control next to the name to be changed. ^ Type in the name as described in "Creating a user profile" and select "OK".
Settings Display The display contrast and brightness can be adjusted. ^ Select "Settings" and then select "more" three times. SETTINGS + back + DISPLAY + TONE OPTIONS ^ Select "Display". ^ Select "Brightness" or "Contrast" and then the setting. The higher the number the higher the contrast or brightness.
Plumbed This unit is designed for operation with a permanent tap water connection but can be converted from water line to water tank use. To do that the plumbed water line connection can be turned on or off. When the unit is set to on, it uses the water line.
Setting the serving sizes The flavor of the coffee depends on the coffee and quantity of water used. To ensure the machine uses exactly the amount of water to suit your taste and your cups, there is a choice of two serving sizes for espresso/coffee.
Allow the coffee system to cool before cleaning. Danger of burns! Do not clean the unit with a steam cleaner. Never use cleaners containing chlorides, sand, soda or scouring agents. These will damage the surface. To avoid mold of coffee waste, clean the unit regularly.
Cleaning and Care Water tank If the unit is not plumbed, empty the water tank daily and refill before preparing the first drink with fresh, cold tap water. Check if the valve is clean. If the valve has residues on it, the water tank will not connect properly and might leak.
Drip tray The trip tray contains a sensor which causes the display to show when the tray is full and needs to be emptied. Clean the drip tray daily. Remove the drip tray after the final rinse when no more water runs from the lines.
