the same button again to memorise the new amount.
The machine is now reprogrammed with the new quantities.

9.3 Adjusting the coffee mill

The coffee mill is set by default to prepare coffee correctly and
should not require regulating initially.
However, if after making the first few coffees you find that the
coffee is either too weak and not creamy enough or delivery is
too slow (a drop at a time), this can be corrected by adjusting
the grinding adjustment dial «A2» «fig. 13».
Please note:
The grinding adjustment dial must only be turned when the
coffee mill is in operation during the initial phase of coffee
preparation.
If the coffee is delivered too slowly or
not at all, turn one click clockwise.
For fuller bodied creamier coffee, turn
one click anticlockwise (do not turn
more than one click at a time other-
wise the coffee could be delivered a
drop at a time).
These adjustments will only be evident after at least 2 cups of
coffee have been delivered. If this adjustment does not produce
the desired result, turn the dial another click.

10. MAKING COFFEE USING COFFEE BEANS

stick to the coffee mill and damage it.
