HOW TO SET THE BOILER'S TEMPERATURE BY MEANS OF THE PID:

The PID has been set by the producer of this machine on a temperature of 95°C. In order to change the temperature
please proceed as follows:
press the button
-
as soon as the display shows the boiler's temperature, help yourself with the buttons
-
order to set the desired temperature, starting from a min. of 80C° up to a max. of 130C°.
after 3 sec. from pressing the last button, the inserted temperature is memorized and the display shows the
-
set temperature.
NB: if the temperature is set too high, once a coffee request is made, the display starts to flash.

USEFUL TIPS:

The single cup filter (9), the two-cup filter (10) and the pod filter (18) do not need to be washed after each
-
use but please check that the holes are not blocked.
For best results, we suggest warming the cups up on the cup warmer (2) which works only when the machine
-
is on.
The PID is already set by the producer on the right temperature for an excellent espresso. During heating and
-
coffee or water distribution, the temperature can oscillate (+/- 10/12°C). Also, a warning has been inserted:
after 108°C the PID's display shows the temperature but intermittently; this is normal and it warns the user
that the coffee will not be good if made with such high temperature.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning and maintenance of the machine are essential for the quality of the coffee and the durability of the
appliance.
Cleaning
The machine must be cleaned at least once a week.
Before starting, remove the plug from the electrical outlet and allow the machine to cool.
Use a soft cloth, preferably microfiber, like the Lelit cloth (code MC972 - not included), and moisten
it with plain water. Do not use abrasive detergents and do not immerse the machine in water.
For thorough maintenance, we suggest you use the Lelit brush (code PL106 - not included), which will help you clean
the nozzles and the spaces between the ga-skets more effectively, removing stains and coffee residues from even
the smallest cracks.
Warm running water can be used to clean the removable parts of the machine. The filters and filterholder should
never be washed in a dishwasher.
There is no need to clean the filters after each use, but just to ensure they are not clogged.
However, to ensure the best performance from your machine, it is essential to thoroughly clean the steam wand and
filterholder after each use.
